The Nominated Bank In Letter of Credit agreement is a crucial document in international trade finance, specifically designed for use when a bank is designated to handle Letter of Credit transactions within Saudi Arabia's legal framework. This document becomes necessary when an Issuing Bank nominates another bank to act on its behalf in paying, negotiating, or undertaking deferred payment obligations under a Letter of Credit. The agreement must comply with Saudi Arabian banking regulations, including Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA) guidelines, while also adhering to international banking practices such as the UCP 600. It typically includes detailed provisions for document examination, payment procedures, fee structures, and risk allocation, ensuring clarity in the nominated bank's role and responsibilities in facilitating international trade transactions.
