letter of credit
*****************
Letter of Credit L/c also known as Documentary Credit is a widely used term to make payment secure in domestic and international trade. The document is issued by a financial organization at the buyer request. Buyer also provide the necessary instructions in preparing the document.

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) in the Uniform Custom and Practice for Documentary Credit (UCPDC) defines L/C as:

"An arrangement, however named or described, whereby a bank (the Issuing bank) acting at the request and on the instructions of a customer (the Applicant) or on its own behalf :

Is to make a payment to or to the order third party ( the beneficiary ) or is to accept bills of exchange (drafts) drawn by the beneficiary.
Authorised another bank to effect such payments or to accept and pay such bills of exchange (draft).
Authorised another bank to negotiate against stipulated documents provided that the terms are complied with.

A key principle underlying letter of credit (L/C) is that banks deal only in documents and not in goods. The decision to pay under a letter of credit will be based entirely on whether the documents presented to the bank appear on their face to be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the letter of credit.

overdraft
*********

A bank overdraft is when someone is able to spend more than what is actually in their bank account. Obviously the money doesn't belong to them but belongs to the bank so this money will need to be paid back; normally automatically done when money goes into the persons account. The overdraft will be limited.

A bank overdraft is also a type of loan as the money is technically borrowed.
