Trust and due diligence
How to Verify a Genuine SBLC or Bank Guarantee Provider
Trade finance fraud relies on documents that look official and counterparties that cannot be checked. This page sets out the due-diligence steps that protect you with any provider, and the public records that let you verify Credit Glorious directly.
Checklist
Six Due-Diligence Checks Before You Engage Any Provider
Apply these to every counterparty, including us. A provider that resists verification is telling you something important.
- 01
Confirm the legal entity exists
Ask for the registered company name, registration number, and country of incorporation, then check them yourself in the official register. In the United Kingdom that is Companies House; in Hong Kong, the Companies Registry. A provider that cannot give you a verifiable registration number is not a provider.
- 02
Check the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)
Regulated financial counterparties hold an LEI. Look the LEI up in a public LEI register and confirm the registered address and legal name match the documents you have been sent.
- 03
Verify instruments only bank to bank over SWIFT
A standby letter of credit, bank guarantee, or documentary credit is real only when it reaches your bank as an authenticated SWIFT message — MT760 for SBLC and bank guarantees, MT700 for documentary credits, with MT799 pre-advice where required. A PDF, scan, or emailed 'verbiage' is never proof of issuance.
- 04
Never pay unrelated third parties
Fees are payable only to the contracting entity named in your engagement documents, into an account in that entity's own name. Never pay a personal account, a payment agent you have no contract with, or an entity introduced by email at the last minute.
- 05
Insist on written documentation before money moves
A term sheet, an engagement letter or deed of agreement, and a clear fee schedule should exist before any payment. Read the governing rules cited (UCP 600, ISP98, URDG 758) and make sure they match the instrument being described.
- 06
Verify the people and the channel
Confirm names, roles, and email domains directly through the company's published contact channel rather than by replying to the email you received. Domain look-alikes are the most common vector in trade finance fraud.
