PrivatBank offers services to importers that allow them to avoid 100-percent prepayment to their suppliers and to get access to inexpensive financing in the short, medium and long term. The cost of this funding is much lower than standard interest rates in Ukrainian banks, due to the possibility of raising the funds at foreign banks interested in supporting their client-exporters.

• You need not spend your working capital.
• Access to low-cost financing.
• Opportunity to work with suppliers on more favorable terms of merchandise deliveries, and at lower prices.
• It eliminates the risk that the supplier will not ship goods after your payment on the contract.

• Guaranteed payments for shipped goods.
• Increase in supply amounts.
• Enlargement of customer range due to more beneficial delivery and payment terms.

• Wider opportunities for trade crediting from contractors, as well as improved commercial lending options due to the risks to your company being replaced by the bank's liabilities.
• Importer financing through letters of credit and guarantee instruments is processed on a resource-free basis that greatly reduces its cost.
• Letters of credit and guarantee instruments include various additional requirements to suppliers (terms of shipment, requirements for supporting documents, etc.) and this allows for better organistion and planning of deliveries.
• This reduces risks of misconduct from your counterparties, that in the case of external financing import operations, eliminates the risk of your credit rating deterioration through the fault of your counterparties.

Thus, financial services and import operations through letters of credit and guarantee instruments provides you both a direct benefit in the form of lower financing costs and a number of additional benefits that may also be helpful to your company.
