In this paper, I examined the trends of standardization and electronization of trade documents and SWIFT network. Also, I reviewed on emerging electronic documentary credit for electronic payment and electronic presentation of documents. New international trade customs and practices are being established and changed as a result of the growth of the Internet and other on-line networks. At the same time there is increasing pressure to move from existing paper-based documentary credit to electronic documentary credit. Several projects devoted to development of an electronic letter of credit infrastructure have recently been proposed such as Bolero, SWIFTNet, UNeDocs and eUCP, etc. Yet, little can be done until the presentation process is electrified between traders and banks. Also, interbank communication of letters of credit has long been electronic, mainly through the SWIFT. However, it is not functioned between applicant and beneficiary, although the solution of SWIFTNet has recently been developed. The Banking Commission of International Chamber of Commerce established a working group consisting of experts in the related fields to prepare the appropriate rules as a Supplement to UCP 500 for Electronic Presentation: eUCP. The eUCP will provide the necessary rules for the presentation of the electronic equivalents of paper documents under letters of credit. Some problems of electronic presentation under the eUCP, exist such as format, presentation of electronic records and the way of beneficiary's notice for completeness under the Article e5 if more than one record is to be presented electronically by third parties. Therefore, it is encouraged to provide more detailed guide for eUCP Article e5.

A letter of credit transaction of the preexistence have been raising one's head fraud charge problem as a result of abusing the principles of independence and abstraction. Every society has certain rules and conventions which it regards as important and most of people in any society. The paper document means a document in a traditional paper form. The eUCP credit must specify the formats in which electronic records are to be presented. In these present times, the issuance of documentary credit are performed by the SWIFT(Society for Worldwide Inter bank Financial Telecommunication) system. The eUCP have been written to allow for presentation completely electronically or for a mixture of paper documents and electronic presentation. Presentation is deemed not to have been made if the Beneficiary's notice is not received. An electronic record that cannot be authenticated is deemed not to have been presented. The e-UCP is the supplement of current existing UCP but is superior to UCP under some circumstances. The document shall include an electronic record. The place for presentation of electronic records means an electronic address. The current e-UCP is not clear on this matter. We have to note followings in case of presenting the documents electronically and applying the e-UCP. There are three principles in the letter of credit transaction, that is to say, independence and abstraction, document dealing, strict compliance. IN the electronic letter of credit, these principles are called as independence and abstraction, electronic document dealing, strict compliance.

In the Spring of 2000, the Banking Commission of the ICC decided to appoint a working group to draft a supplement to the UCP 500 to clarify the position regarding electronic presentation under a documentary credit. Provisions was drafted to supplement its existing rules for documentary credit, that is, UCP 500. These new provisions known as Supplement to UCP 500 for Electronic Presentation was approved by the ICC Banking Commission at the beginning of November 2001 and came in force as of 1 April 2002 The eUCP covers matters such as definitions of key terms such as electronic record, electronic signature, format, paper document, received. An eUCP Credit must specify the formats in which electronic records are to be presented and if not, electronic records may be presented in any format. Electronic records may be presented separately and need not be presented at the same time. The purpose of this paper is to understand the main substance of eUCP and to facilitate the introduction of electronic letter of credit by studying the problems and revision of eUCP and new electronic UCP. The main substances of eUCP are electronic address as place for presentation of electronic records, flexibility of the formats of electronic records to be presented, endowment of the notice of completeness of presentation to the beneficiary, one electronic record satisfying one or more originals or copies of an electronic record, the electronic records to be examined including the electronic record at the hyperlink to an external system or the referenced system, no remark as to the time period for the examination of documents. The Roles of eUCP are the Promotion of the Electronic Trade, the Supply of Basis on the Uniform Rules for Electronic Letter of Credit, the introduction of Electronic Trade Model. The characteristics of eUCP are a supplement to the UCP, no address of any issues relating to the issuance or advice of Credit electronically, independence of specific technologies and developing electronic commerce system, that is, Bolero Service. The Problems of eUCP are flexibility of format of electronic record, heavy burden on the side of banks, and the problems regrading the number of presentation, the notice of completeness of presentation, no provision in regard to the time to examine the electronic records, and representation of the electronic records. In the revision of eUCP to resolve the problems, the things to be taken into consideration are as follows; the designation of the format allowing the banks to examine electronically, prohibition of the paper documents, the development of the system receiving the electronic records, the addition of the reception notice on the side of the banks, the setting of the time to examine the electronic records, the construction of the backup system or the dual processing system.

본 연구는 최근 정체기에 접어들었다고 볼 수 있는 전자무역 연구에 조금이라도 도움이 되기 위해 기획되고 연구되었다. 무엇보다 본 연구의 배경은 외국에서의 전자무역에 관한 선행문헌과 국내에서의 전자무역에 관한 선행문헌이 서로 다르다는 것에서 출발한다. 외국에서의 전자무역 연구 동향은 주로 통관 업무에 국한되어 연구가 진행되는 경우가 많았지만 국내에서의 전자무역 연구 동향은 주로 대금결제와 선하증권의 전자화 등 대금결제의 전자화 및 전자신용장의 구축을 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 이와 같은 차이점이 실제 전자무역 구축에도 그대로 이어져 외국에서의 전자무역 구축 동향과 국내에서의 전자무역 구축 동향이 서로 다소 다르게 이루어졌다. 미국을 중심으로 한 선진국에서는 통관 및 물류 영역을 중심으로 전자무역이 구축되었고 우리나라에서는 통관 영역의 전자화도 이루어졌지만 신용장을 포함한 결제 영역에서도 전자화도 구축되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최근에 논의되고 있는 글로벌 전자무역 동향을 비교적 심도 있게 분석하였으며 한국의 전자무역 추진의 핵심 당사자인 한국무역정보통신과 관세청이 구현한 우리나라 전자무역 현황을 알아보고 검토하였다. 이를 바탕으로 한국 전자무역 추진상의 여러 문제점을 도출하였고 이에 대한 해결방안을 제시하였다. 논의 결과, 우리나라 전자무역 구축은 향후 전자신용장 등 대금결제의 전자화 보다는 통관, 물류 영역의 전자화가 더욱 필요하다고 분석되었다.

With the current evolution from paper to electronic records the documentary credit market has been looking to ICC to provide guidance in this transition. To allow bankers and traders to familiarize themselves with this trend, eUCP has come into force from April 1st 2002. The eUCP provides definitions to allow current UCP terminology to accommodate the presentation of the equivalent of paper documents electronically and to provide necessary rules to allow the UCP and eUCP to work together. It is important to understand that many of the Articles of the UCP are not impacted by the presentation of electronic equivalent of paper documents and do not require any changes to accommodate electronic presentation. When read together the UCP and the eUCP will be broad enough to allow for developing practice in this area. The eUCP is not a revision of the UCP. The UCP will continue to provide the industry with rules for paper letters of credit in conjunction with the eUCP. This study comments that some characteristics of the eUCP have unique properties, such as juncture, envelope, homotheticity functions, and some applicable interpretations including abstraction of letter of credit, notice of completeness, notice of discrepancies and corruption of electronic records.

본 연구는 현재·시행되고 있는 BPO의 디지털 프로세스와 그 지급에 있어서 제도적 관점에서 기존 제도와 비교·분석하였다. BPO는 기능 면에 있어서 신용장과 유사하지만, 전자적 환경을 기반으로 한 은행 간의 지급약정이기 때문에 그 운용에 있어서는 전통적인 제도와는 많은 차이가 있다. 즉 BPO 거래에서의 책임과 의무, 지급 매카니즘, 거래당사자의 역할, 신용장의 확인과 양도 등에 있어서 많은 차이를 보이고 있다. 그러나 BPO는 정보기술을 기반으로 운용되기 때문에 더 효율적이며 비용 효과적이다. 본 연구는 BPO의 선행 연구를 기반으로 이미 발표된 BPO 관련 연구와 자료 등을 중심으로 문헌 연구하였다.
