53. BANK PAYMENT OBLIGATION (BPO)
• What is it?
• A BPO is an irrevocable undertaking given by an Obligor bank (typically the buyer’s
bank) to a Recipient bank (the seller’s bank) to pay a specified amount on an agreed
date under the condition of a successful electronic matching of data according to an
industry-wide set of rules adopted by the ICC.
• BPO constitutes a legally binding, valid and enforceable payment obligation of the
Obligor Bank to the Recipient Bank under the appropriate standard of law, enforceable
in accordance with its terms.
• BPO is a technology independent instrument based on ISO 20022 XML that can be used
on any open Trade Matching Application (TMA) such as the SWIFT Trade Service Utility
platform (TSU).
53
54. BANK PAYMENT OBLIGATION (BPO)
• How does it work?
• Only the data required to assess the financing risk is extracted from existing
documentation – Purchase order, Commercial invoice, Transport, Insurance
Certificate
• Importer and Exporter need to agree on the use of a BPO in their commercial
agreement. Both will establish the BPO terms and conditions in the bilateral
agreement with their own bank.
• Obligor and Recipient banks rely on the ICC URBPO and the contractual
agreement of the Transaction Matching platform, such as TSU Service
