Economics | A letter of credit which a bank issues on behalf of its customer to serve as a guarantee to the beneficiary of the letter of credit that the bank's customer will perform a specified contract with the beneficiary. If the customer defaults, the beneficiary may draw funds against the letter of credit as penalties or as payments, whichever the terms of the credit provide. (references) |
Finance | A guaranty issued by a Federal Home Loan Bank on behalf of a member thrift institution wishing to enter into an interest rate swap agreement on its own.
