A China-based company decided to start a new firm that mainly deals with heavy equipment rental. So, as a one-time investment, the firm decided to purchase heavy equipment for road construction. And it includes Excavators, Loaders, Bulldozers, JCB Wheel Loaders, Forklifts, and Tunnel Boring Machines. For this, they announced a bid to get the best price from genuine suppliers. The buyer received many quotes from many suppliers. A German supplier who supplies heavy equipment also participated in this bidding contest. And they won the bid, as they provided a very reasonable quote in their bid.
The supplier was ready to supply the required equipment, as per the agreed contract. But, they asked the Chinese firm to provide BCL MT799 to determine their financial strength for purchasing different types of equipment. The firm agreed to their terms and started the process to avail Letter of Comfort on behalf of their new startup firm.
The Challenge: How to Avail BCL MT799
First, the Chinese trader asked their bank to issue BCL Bank on their behalf. Even though the trader has a good repute in the market, the bank denied their request, as they requested BCL on behalf of their new startup. So, they looked out for other options to arrange MT799.
