Core modules
Trade & Finance
Bank guarantees, foreign-currency settlements, letters of credit and import trade finance.
What matters in Trade & Finance.
Built for accountant and treasury manager.
Letters of credit, application to retirement
An LC starts from the import order and is followed through to retirement.
The whole import chain is on one trail.
Import loans with interest handled
Trust receipt loans are drawn at LC retirement. Interest at the bank's base rate plus the loan's spread is debited at each month end, with penal interest after the due date and grace.
No spreadsheet for loan interest.
Advance remittances with the regulatory clock
Money sent before the goods is tracked against the central bank's 90-day clock to the customs declaration, with collections and a compliance report.
Deadlines are watched for you.
Month-end revaluation that reverses itself
One journal books unrealised exchange gain or loss and is reversed automatically on the first.
Foreign-currency balances are right at every month end.
Bank guarantees off the ledger
Security held and guarantees issued are tracked but not posted to the ledger. Tiles show contingent liability, expiring soon and past expiry.
Contingent exposure is visible, not hidden.
Facility headroom and exposure
Reports on facility utilisation and headroom, margin held, maturity calendar, foreign-currency exposure and landed cost per consignment.
Know how much bank room is left.
