To succeed in today’s global marketplace and win sales against foreign competitors, Exporters must offer their customers attractive sales terms supported by the appropriate payment methods. Because getting paid in full and on time is the ultimate goal for each export sale, an appropriate payment method must be chosen carefully to minimize the payment risk while also accommodating the needs of the Importer. International trade presents a spectrum of risk, which causes uncertainty over the timing of payments between the Exporter (seller) and Importer (buyer). Therefore, Exporters want to receive payment as soon as possible, preferably as soon as an order is placed or before the goods are sent to the Importer. And of course Importers want to receive the goods as soon as possible but to delay payment as long as possible, preferably until after the goods are resold to generate enough income to pay the Exporter’s invoice.
As shown below, there are five primary methods of payment for international transactions. During or before contract negotiations, Exporter should consider which method is desirable and appropriate depending on the relationship with the Importer.

Budget 2022 is based on an economic atmosphere where we have seen strong GDP growth in 2021 and an improvement in public finances created by strong taxation receipts. The key changes and developments on the tax measures announced are as follows: Today we are living in VUCA world and have been for quite some time – volatility , uncertainty , complexity and ambiguity is the norm as a result of the pandemic.
Everything in the financial markets is relative. Growth potential, rates of return and safety are all considerations which urge capital to flow to one region or asset class over another according to prevailing conditions in the markets. Given its ubiquity, the US Dollar often finds itself a bridge to these shifting winds - for better and worse. Through the opening quarter of 2021, there were significant changes in focus from an incredible charge in retail appetite to anticipation for reopening economies after mass vaccinations to burgeoning inflation expectations that have fed into central bank normalization hopes/fears.
