简答

1. Why does collection（托收）make exporters run more risks?

Collection makes exporter run more risks .because the exporter ships the cargoes before obtaining the payment .When the goods arrive at the destination, they might be refused or the importer may find fault with the goods. If this happens . the exporter has to deliver the goods in the hand of the

importers with loss of profit or to transport the goods back, but that involves charges. It is very clear that collection provides more security to the importer.

2. Explain briefly the two forms of a documentary collection

简要地说明两种形式的跟单托收

1) When the presenting bank presents the documents to the importer, the latter must accept the bill before he gets the documents. D/A may be used when the market is the buyer’s market and when the buyer is considered reliable.

2) By D/P ,it is meant that the principal gives the B/E and the shipping documents to the bank and entrusts the bank to collect the payment from the importer on condition that the importer effects payment. Otherwise, the shipping documents shall not be released to the importer.

D / P是指负责人给了银行B / E（报税单）和运输证明，在进口商付了款的条件下委托银行向进口商托收货款。不然，运输文件不能交给进口商。

在即期交易中，协议和货币的输出发生在成交日后的两个交易日内。

2) A forward transaction is one that is transacted for delivery of currencies at some date beyond spot date The delivery date and price are agreed upon at the time the contract is made .Purchases and sales for delivery three months and six months hence are common. Longer terms up to one year or more are usually available

远期的交易是为了在同一个时间内除了现款交易日期的货币的流通而办理的交易。流通日期和价格是在合同已经签订的前提下制定的。因此为了流通三个月和六个月的购买和销售是很正常的。更长的时间到一年或是更长一般也是可接受的。
