Trade and Supply Chain

With HSBCnet ’s Trade and Supply Chain solutions, you can initiate trade transactions and access real-time trade account information from anywhere, at any time. These solutions increase efficiency, reduce waiting time and expedite your sales, sourcing and manufacturing processes.

You can apply for import Documentary Credits (DCs), and make subsequent amendments online. DCs can be created faster and more efficiently using saved templates, the File Upload feature, applicant and beneficiary lists and standard or customised DC clauses.

Create import bill instructions and view details of outstanding import bills at one time. You can easily control your trade payments by viewing discrepancies for bills online, accepting or rejecting bills and submitting settlement instructions.

View export bills and DC advices online and sign up to receive export DC advices via email using Instant@dvice. This can help you start your manufacturing and sourcing processes earlier.

You can also easily submit instructions online to transfer your export DCs to the beneficiary of your choice.
