Bank Guarantee Finance.
A bank guarantee gives a counterparty comfort that a business will meet its contractual obligations, structured as a non-fund-based limit against the business's own credit and security.
Performance Guarantees · Bid Bonds · Financial Guarantees
Where This Applies
- A contract or tender requires a performance or bid bond guarantee.
- A counterparty needs assurance of financial commitment without the business tying up cash upfront.
- Existing non-fund-based limits need to be assessed for available guarantee capacity.
- Guarantee tenor and value need to match the underlying contract requirement.
How We Approach It
We review whether the requirement is performance, financial or bid-bond in nature, then structure the guarantee limit against existing non-fund-based capacity and security, sized to the contract value involved.
