  • L/C transaction, the most important issue for the seller and the buyer is the theory of documentary transaction and the theory of strict compliance which are the principles of L/C transactions. According to the leading cases in England and America where the practice of L/C transactions was created and developed, the descriptions of the commodities specified on all the documents which are submitted based on an L/C, should be identical to the descriptions of commodities specified in the L/C. And further, many leading cases of L/C continuously repeat to emphasize strict compliance. However, the recent leading cases in and out of the country show that the principle of strict compliance is being weakened. The leading cases in America show two trends of weakening the principle of strict compliance. That is, on the contrary to strict compliance, tends to apply substantial compliance (which puts more value on the substance of the documents). These leading cases reflect the attitudes of the judicial and the legislative authorization that don't want to approve formal approach to the commercial law. Recently, the Supreme Court of Korea is giving a decision on the principle of strict compliance, "The documents attached to an L/C should strictly comply with the conditions in the L/C, but it doesn't mean that they should be perfectly identical without any mistake in words. In case the bank can understand through reasonable care that a small mistake in words is too trivial to give different meaning or to give damage to the conditions of the L/C, the documents are regarded to comply with the conditions of the L/C. However, the judgment should be based on whether the difference between the documents and the L/C can be admitted by the international standard bank transaction practice or not." This decision tells that the principle of strict compliance is quite much modified so application of this modification can't be ignored. However, from the viewpoint of the party who requests to open an L/C, there is a criticism that a bank's arbitrary judgement can be involved. Therefore, reviewing the original purpose of L/C transactions (activating international transactions), the principle of strict compliance may be thought old-fashioned because it emphasizes a form, but in reality, for prompt transaction and payment, the principle of strict compliance should be observed in L/C transactions. And further, if a legislative device is prepared to systematically compensate for several side-effects, the principle of strict compliance will improve dynamic flow of prompt and low-costly L/C transactions. On the other hand, it will be able to protect the interested parties.

  • This study is related with the judgements of our country's supremcourt against the transaction of Letter of Credit which is beneficiary's fraudulent trade deal. In this case I think to analyse the judgements and to present the basic grounds on which the judgements were established. In Letter of Credit transaction, there are the major parties, such as, beneficiary, issuing bank, or confirming bank and the other parties such as applicant, negotiating bank, advising bank and paying bank. Therefore, in this cases, the beneficiary, the French Weapons' Supplier who did not shipped the commodities, created the false Bill of Lading, let his dealing bank make payment against the documents presented by him and received the proceeds from the negotiating bank or collecting bank, thereafter was bankrupted and escaped. For the first time, even though the issuing bank conceived that the presented documents were inconsistent with the terms of L/C. it did not received the payment approval from the applicant against all the discrepancies, made the negotiating bank pay the proceeds to exporter and thereafter, delivered the documents to the applicant long after the time of the issuing bank's examination of documents. The applicant who received the documents from the issuing bank, instantly did not examine the documents and inform to the issuing bank whether he accepted the documents or not. Long time after, applicant tried to clear the goods through custom when he knew the bill of ladings were false and founded out the documents had the other discrepancies which he did not approved. As the results, the applicant, Korea Army Transportation Command claimed, that the issuing bank must refund his paid amount because issuing bank examined the documents unreasonably according to u.c.p 500 Act 13th, 14th. In spite of the applicant's claim, the issuing bank argued that it paid the proceeds of L/C reasonably after receiving the applicant's approval of an discrepancy of document, the delayed shipment, but for concerning the other discrepancies, the trivial ones, the applicant did not examined the document and noticed the discrepancies in reasonable time. Therefore the applicant sued the issuing bank for refunding it's paid proceeds of L/C. Originally, this cases were risen between Korea Exchange Bank and Korea Army Transportation Command. As result of analysing the case, the contents of the case case have had same procedure actually, but the lower courts, the district and high courts all judged the issuing bank was reasonable and did not make an error. As analysing these supreme court's judgements, the problem is that whether there are the applicant's liability of examining the documents and informing its discrepancies to the issuing bank or not, and if the applicant broke such a liabilities, it lost the right of claiming the repayment from issuing bank. Finally to say, such applicant's liabilities only must be existed in case the documents arrived to the issuing bank was delivered to the applicant within the time of the documents examination according to u.c.p 500 Act 14, d. i. But if any the documents were delivered to applicant after time of the documents examination, the applicant had not such liabilities because eventhough after those time the applicant would have informed to the issuing bank the discrepancies of documents, the issuing bank couldn't receive repayment of its paid proceeds of document from the negotiating bank. In the result after time of issuing bank's examination of documents, it is considered that there's no actual benefit to ask the applicant practice it's liability. Therefore finally to say. I concluded that the Suprem Court's judgement was much more reasonable. In the following, the judgements of the supreme court would be analysed more concretely, the basic reasons of the results be explained and the way of protecting such L/C transaction would be presented.

  • 지금까지 전자결제 상용화 서비스를 제공하기 위한 다양한 시도는 있었으나, 실제로 상용화 서비스로 이용되고 있는 전자결제 모델은 거의 없고, 그 중에서 SWIFT의 TSU(Trade Service Utility) 만이 실현가능성이 가장 높은 것으로 평가받고 있다. 한국의 경우에는 전자무역촉진3개년사업을 통하여 e-L/C 유통관리시스템이 구축되었는데, 이는 세계 최초의 전자신용장서비스에 해당된다. SWIFT신용장을 전자신용장이라고 보는 견해가 몇몇 학자들에 의해 주장되고 있는데, 이는 신용장의 발행에서 통지에 이르기까지의 일련의 과정이 SWIFT 방식을 통해서 이루어지고 있는 현상에서 SWIFT를 통해 통지되는 신용장을 SWIFT신용장이라고 부르는 것에 지나지 않는다는 점에서 그릇된 견해라고 할 수 있다. 왜냐하면 완전한 전자신용장 시스템은 SWIFT망과 접속되어 유기적으로 연동될 수 있도록 되어야 할 뿐만 아니라 해외의 은행과 은행의 고객 간의 전자신용장 업무도 유기적으로 연결되어야만 가능한 것이기 때문이다. 본 논문의 연구 목적은 국내외 전자결제 관련 인프라 현황을 살펴보고, 향후 국제적으로 도입될 전자결제 인프라를 모색해봄으로써 우리나라 전자신용장 유통시스템의 구축과 상용화에 조금이나마 일조하고자 함이다.

  • Almost business enterprises have recently used electronic commerce to conduct their business. Electronic commerce has come to encompass the Internet as well as EDI on private networks begun in the 1960s. The Internet is already changing the way that many companies conduct their business. Domestic electronic commerce has rapidly enhanced, while Int'l electronic commerce has gone steady. There are four issues for developing of Int'l Electronic Commerce. Firstly, The EDI Standardization is to be uniformed and prevailed over the world in UN/EDIFACT authorized by ISO. Secondly, There are two useful systems on Electronic Document Transmission, so called, Bolero project system and Trade Card System. It is thought that Bolero system will be more useful for large trading enterprises, especially, who need a Letter of Credit and electronic B/L, while T/C system is proper to small trade companies who do not need those. Successful results of Bolero system is very important for Int'l electronic commerce enterprises. Thirdly, to secure electronic signature, Int'l Certification Authority is essential for the users of Int'l electronic commerce. Trusted way of distributing public keys is to use a Int'l Certification Authority. The Int'l Certification Authority will accept user's public key, along with some proof of identity and serve as a depository of digital certificates. Both governments and the International business community must involve archiving keys with trusted third parties. Finally, It is important that all the nations and UNCITRAL continue efforts to make legal bases in Int'l electronic commerce concerned, including electronic signature, certification etc.

  • 최근 기업 경영활동의 정보화가 촉진되고 국가간 무역의 패러다임이 변화하면서 전자무역이 전반적인 무역업무 프로세스에 적용되었다. 기업의 무역거래에서 대금결제를 원활하게 하는 신용장은 온라인을 통한 전자신용장(e-L/C)을 활용함으로써 무역프로세스의 고비용과 비효율적인 요소를 해소할 수 있게 되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 인지된 용이성, 최고경영자 의지 등의 전자무역 활용 요인들과 전자신용장 활용, 기업의 사업성과 간의 영향관계를 살펴보고, 전자무역 운용기관의 고객서비스 제공 수준에 따른 조절효과를 검증하는데 연구목적이 있다. 이를 위해서 우리나라에서 전자신용장을 활용하고 있는 338개 기업을 대상으로 설문을 회수하여 실증분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 실증분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 인지된 용이성과 최고경영자 의지는 전자신용장 활용에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 전자신용장 활용은 기업의 사업성과에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, 전자무역 운용기관의 고객서비스 제공 수준에 따라 인지된 용의성, 최고경영자 의지, 전자신용장 활용, 기업의 사업성과 간의 영향관계에 차이가 나타났다. 본 연구의 주된 시사점은 전자무역 활용을 위해서 인지된 용이성과 최고경영자 의지가 중요하지만 기업은 인지된 용이성을 보다 우선적으로 고려되어야 하고, 최고경영자 의지는 전자무역 운용기관의 고객서비스 제공 수준과 시너지 효과를 나타낸다.

  • 전통적인 상거래 방식에서의 결제시스템으로는 신용장에 의한 방식, 추심에 의한 방식, 송금에 의한 방식 등이 있으며, 신용장방식은 수출자가 대금지급에 대한 확실성과 금융상의 편리, 신용위험의 감소로 보편적으로 가장 많이 선호하고 있다. 추심 방식은 오랜 신용관계에 있는 거래선간에 조심스럽게 이용되고 있다. 송금방식은 소액이나 견본 등의 대금지불에 알맞은 방식이다. 인터넷 전자상거래 방식에서의 결제시스템으로는 지불 브로크형 시스템, 전자화폐시스템, 소액전자지불시스템, 전자자금이체시스템 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 전통적인 방식의 결제방식과 인터넷을 이용한 결제시스템의 차이와 장ㆍ단점을 비교하였다. 인터넷 결제시스템은 전통적인 방식보다 결제시간을 줄일 수 있는 반면, 소매거래 (B to C)환경에 국한되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 도매거래(B to B)하에서는 전통적인 결제시스템이 안정성, 안전성, 신뢰성 측면에서 인터넷 결제시스템보다 아직까지는 월등한 상황이다.

  • Many presentations of documents are rejected because credits have been incorrectly issued. One reason of rejecting the documents is related with error in application stage of L/C. Errors may take the form of mismatches between the terms of the sales contract and the provisions stipulated in the credit. Thus, Article 5 encourages applicants to make their contribution to the smooth running of the letter of credit process by being unambiguous and brief. Another reason that the banks reject the documents relates to the ambiguity of the term "International Standard Banking Practice" That is to say, UCP500 Art.13 introduced the term "International Standard Banking Practice"(ISBP) without the definition so that one wonder what ISBP is or how ISBP apply in daily work of bankers, examination of documents. From hence, International Chamber of Commerce(ICC) started the work to document ISBP at May 2000, finally approved the result last year and published the publication titled "International Standard Banking Practice for the examination of documents under documentary credits." By applying ISBP in document examination stage, I expect that the freqency of rejecting the documents grow less and bankers' work of examination become easy. On the other hand, ISBP is supplement to UCP500 so that the interpretation of ISBP is made on the basis of understanding of UCP and its underlying principles. So, I reviewed each paragraphs of ISBP on this basis and tried to indicate contradiction between ISBP and UCP500. But because of reading not enough, I failed to search the connotative sense many paragraphs have.

  • 최근 우리나라는 외화획득용 원료 등 구매제도에 대해 전자화를 도입하게 되었다. 정부는 구매확인서의 전자화를 위해서 2011년에 대외무역관리규정을 개정하였다. 또한, 외화획득용 원료 등 구매제도에는 구매확인서에 이어 2012년에 내국신용장도 전자화하였다. 이는 우리나라 전자무역이 로컬거래 절차의 전자화를 추진하게 되는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 외화획득용 물품관리제도에 대한 선행적 고찰과 대외무역관리규정의 개정을 통한 구매확인서 전자발급의 의무화 및 한국은행 무역금융 취급세칙의 개정으로 내국신용장의 전자개설 의무화에 따른 이론적, 법적 고찰과 로컬거래 절차의 전자화의 추진인로컬거래 통합관리시스템의 구축에 있어 법적, 실무적 문제점과 대응방안을 분석하였다.
