Document Signing and Editing Issues
I just spent about an hour or so with Kara, one of your most helpful and patient online chat professionals. I was in the process of completing a contract and addendums where my Buyer was pressing me. I sent it out to my Seller and the Buyer once and ran into a number of editing and fillable field issues. So I recalled it. Kara took me step by step through each issue and patiently explained everything to me via zoom and screen share. She even went a step further and pointed out some features to me that will help me in the future. Even though I was a bit stressed in trying to get my documents completed, she calmed me down with her knowledge level and patience.I sure hope if I ever need pdfFiller's live chat support again, I'm lucky enough to get Kara again or someone with the same level of expertise. I enjoyed chatting and working with her.Joyce

What is a bank guarantee and how does it work?
A bank guarantee is when a lending institution promises to cover a loss if a borrower defaults on a loan. The guarantee lets a company buy what it otherwise could not, helping business growth and promoting entrepreneurial activity. There are different kinds of bank guarantees, including direct and indirect guarantees.
What is the process of bank guarantee?
Under a bank guarantee, if the buyer is unable to make the payment to the seller or creditor, then the bank pays the fixed amount to the seller as the obligations of the contract are not met. On the other hand, under a letter of credit, the bank makes the payment to the seller once he or she delivers.
Who is the beneficiary in a bank guarantee?
The beneficiary is the one to who takes the guarantee. And the applicant is the party who seeks the bank guarantee from the bank. BGS are an important banking arrangement and play a vital role in promoting international and domestic trade. The bank issues BG on the receipt of the request from the applicant.
Why do we need bank guarantee?
The Importance of Bank Guarantees A bank guarantee is essentially a promissory provision on a loan indicating that if the borrower of the loan defaults on repayment, the bank will cover the amount of default. This is a crucial provision to convince multiple companies to work together to complete a long-term project.
