A Bank Guarantee loan is an alternative to providing a deposit or bond directly to a supplier or vendor. It is an unconditional undertaking given by the bank, on behalf of our customer, to pay the recipient of the guarantee the amount of the guarantee on written demand.
It is an undertaking by the Bank that payments to the customers and suppliers will be met, without tying up working capital. The Bank holds the cash or assets as security for the guarantee. Customer provides the supplier with the guarantee instead of cash.
