1 Introduction

RABO TRADE ACCESS (RTA) is a user-friendly application with which customers can electronically submit

applications for documentary payment products. Applications for standard outward and custom made bank

guarantees can be simply lined up and authorised under the guarantee tab.

The step-by-step procedures described in this RABO TRADE ACCESS User Manual are designed to support the

entire process of an application for a bank guarantee. This manual is intended to show new users the full range of

functions offered by RTA, and to assist experienced users who need to look up something quickly about a specific

process.

As always, please contact your account manager with any additional questions that are not addressed in this

manual or if you want to know how Rabobank can assist you with your business requirements.

list):

Beneficiary

Applicant

Third Party

Beneficiary Bank (only for Credit Guarantee, then it will already be filled in and be protected)

For the first three options, the guarantee is sent directly to the party concerned by courier. Because a courier

cannot deliver to a P.O. Box, it is important that you enter the full street address of this party. You are alerted to

this via the message: Please note: ’Guarantees cannot be sent to a P.O. Box, Postbus, Postfach or Boîte Postale’.

Guarantees will only not be sent by courier to Local Member Banks.

Financial Information

Guarantee amount: Select a currency from the drop-down list and enter the guarantee amount. Some types of

guarantees are only issued in euros. EUR is entered automatically in those cases.

option, the field Expiry date will appear, in which you enter the required expiry date.

Revocation = Until revoked: the guarantee will remain valid until it is revoked by Rabobank subject to a

specified period of notice. After clicking on this option, the field Notice period (in months) will

appear, in which you enter the notice period.

Release = Until released: the guarantee is valid for an indefinite period and expires when Rabobank

receives a signed statement of release from the beneficiary, which may or may not be

accompanied by the original guarantee.

Only one option is possible for some types of guarantee. For instance: a Customs bond is always valid until release.

In that case the field will be automatically filled with Release and will be protected.

Rabo Trade Access 11

3.2.2 Tab Parties

Rabo Trade Access 13

3.2.3 Tab Instructions

The tab Instructions comprises fields in which further information relating to the guarantee to be issued is defined.

Which fields are visible will depend on the type of guarantee. The tab Instructions is shown below for each type of

guarantee.

Performance, Warrenty and Tender Guarantee

Description of Goods/Services and Contract (in Guarantee Language): You are required to provide a description

here of the obligation to be guaranteed, in the language of the guarantee. Be specific in describing goods and/or

work and state the reference number and date of the contract, agreement, tender, (pro forma) invoice etc.

concerned. So not: ‘Delivery of goods in accordance with contract’. But: ‘delivery of 100 coffee machines in

accordance with contract

no. 1234 dated 01-12-2012’.

Also, make sure that the description is properly aligned with the standard wording of the guarantee. You can check

this by clicking on the button Preview Guarantee after all the fields have been filled in, and the text of the

guarantee as generated will be displayed.

Applicable Rules: You can choose here from:

URDG 758

Dutch Law

Rabobank preferably issues its guarantees under the URDG 758, the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees

(URDG), 2010 revision, ICC Publication No. 758. If you do not want that you can opt for Dutch law. Dutch law only

exclusively applies to a number of types of guarantees, such as for example the Performance Guarantee UAV and

the Customs Bond. The field is not displayed for these types. It is not possible to include foreign law in standard

guarantees.

Rabo Trade Access 14

Payment Guarantee

An extra field for this type of guarantee is:

Transport document available to Beneficiary? Use this field to state whether the beneficiary does (Yes) or does not

(No) have the transport document. In the event of a claim under a payment guarantee, Rabobank’s standard

procedures include asking for a copy of the invoice/invoices that remain unpaid and a copy of the transport

document concerned. The transport document can however only be included for deliveries of goods, and not for

rendering of services. In addition, the Beneficiary can only submit a copy of the transport document if he himself

handles the transport of the goods.

Advance Payment Guarantee

Extra fields for this type of guarantee relate to details of the advance payment:

Advance Payment Amount & Currency: Select a currency from the drop-down list and enter the amount the

Beneficiary is required to pay in advance. This amount can be equal to the guarantee amount but can also be a

different amount.

Rabo Trade Access 15

IBAN: State the IBAN number of the account number here into which the advance payment is to be made.

IBAN BIC: Enter the BIC code here of the bank where the account number stated under IBAN is held. If the IBAN

number relates to a Rabobank account, RABONL2U will automatically be entered in this field. If not, the field will

remain empty and you will have to enter the BIC code yourself.

Retention Money Guarantee

As for the Advance Payment Guarantee, the IBAN number and associated BIC code have to be filled in for the

Retention Money Guarantee. For the description, see Advance Payment Guarantee.

A Retention Money Guarantee is issued in exchange for the payment by the beneficiary of the last agreed

instalment. The guarantee amount and the amount of the last agreed instalment are equal. Therefore the amount

of the last agreed instalment does not have to be stated.

Credit Guarantee

A Credit Guarantee contains a default wording for the obligation to be guaranteed, which is: ‘credit- and/or

banking facilities granted to (or on the account of) the Principal Debtor’. The only additional information that

needs to be stated is whether URDG 758 or Dutch Law is opted for.

Rabo Trade Access 16

Customs bond

The

Customs Bond in favour of one of the Customs Offices has a fixed wording that cannot be changed. It is not

possible to display this text in RTA due to its special formatting. For that reason, the full text of this Bond is

included below in this User Manual (Annexe 1). This text contains a substitution clause that must be filled in if the

Customs Bond to be issued replaces a Customs Bond issued previously. This clause is worded as follows:

“Deze borgtocht strekt mede tot verzekering van de voldoening van de verplichtingen tot zekerheid waarvan de bij

akte met nummer … van (datum afgifte) / (datum aanvaarding) groot € ....... door ......... gestelde

zekerheid strekte.”

Accordingly, the first field you will see when opening the tab Instructions is the following:

Does this Bond replace an earlier issued Customs Bond? You can choose ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ in this field.

If the answer is ‘Yes’, a number of fields are displayed in which the details of the Customs Bond that is to be

replaced have to be entered:

Original Bond date: Enter the date of the Bond to be replaced here.

Original Bond Reference: Enter the reference number of the Bond that is to be replaced here.

Original Bond Amount (Euro’s): Enter the amount of the Bond that is to be replaced here. There is no need to state

the currency, which is always Euro’s. If the Bond is still in Dutch guilders, convert these into Euro’s.

Issuing Bank Name: Enter the name of the bank that issued the Bond that is to be replaced here.

Issuing Bank Place: Enter the place here where the bank was/is established.

Customs Office Name: Enter the name of the customs office here that is the beneficiary of the Bond that is to be

replaced.

the text. Use the drop-down list to state whether the amount should (Yes) or should not (No) be included in the

3.2.4 Preview Guarantee

After filling in all required fields you can view the guarantee text, as it has been generated on the basis of your

input, by clicking on the button Preview Guarantee.

Rabobank will issue the guarantee in accordance with this text.

Accordingly, it is important to check whether the text is formulated correctly. As stated earlier in this paragraph,

this applies in particular to the text for the description of the obligation for which the guarantee is being issued.

An example is shown on the next page.

Rabo Trade Access 19

Rabo Trade Access 20

After all the required details for the guarantee application have been entered, you can click on Confirm at the

bottom of the tab. After this has been successfully completed, the screen will display the following message:

‘Transaction completed’.

The transaction will then have the status ‘Pending’ and needs to be approved by the supervisor using the function

‘Authorise Guarantee’, which will be discussed later in this document.

You can use the function ‘Modify Transaction’ to subsequently modify an application before authorisation. Again,

this is discussed later on in this document.

You can save the transaction in the course of creating it by clicking on Save. In this case, the transaction will not be

sent to Rabobank. This enables the user to continue the transaction at a later time. These saved transactions can

also be resumed and completed by using the function ‘Modify Transaction’.

You can also save the transaction as a template. To do so, click on the button Template in the tab Instructions. The

template can then be used again on a later occasion instead of having to enter all details again from the start. This

process is discussed on the next page.

Creating a template

If a transaction (for instance to the same beneficiary) occurs repeatedly, you can use the template functionality. A

template is a standardised application that you can save and re-use.

In the function ‘Create Outward Guarantee’, enter the data that you need for several guarantees for the same

beneficiary. As all fields are optional, users can leave some fields blank. The fields concerned, such as the amount,

the validity, the parties and the description of the obligation will vary from one transaction to another. The

template can then be used for multiple applications without having to repeat information and enter it again for

each application that is handled. To create a template, enter the data in the transaction fields as described above

and click on the button Template in the tab Instructions.

A separate screen is opened, which is shown below.

Assign a unique name to each template, one that is clear for you. State whether the template is Personal (Private)

or Public (Company). Personal (Private) means that the template will only be available for the current user, while

Public (Company) means that the template is available for all users.

Clicking on the button Create will add the template to the Template List. Note: in doing so, a number of data, such

as the amount and validity for instance, are deleted.

To remove the template from the list, tick the corresponding checkbox and click on Delete. The button Update is

intended for switching a template from Private to Public or for overwriting the data with other data.

You can select a

template by clicking on

the checkbox.

Rabo Trade Access 21

Creating a transaction based on a template

A template is a standardised application that you can save and re-use.

Significant time is saved because data have been filled in already. To create a Guarantee application from a

template created previously, open the function ‘Create Outward Guarantee’ and click on Template in the toolbar

at the bottom of the tab Main. A new screen will open with a list of templates already created.

Select the template you want to use by ticking the corresponding checkbox and then click on Load. The data from

the selected template are then loaded into the transaction fields. Change as required before confirming.

indicate whether the beneficiaries bank has to advise the guarantee (issue), or that they have to issue the

guarantee as their own guarantee (request). In case of Advising the guarantee, the beneficiaries bank advices the

Rabobank guarantee to the beneficiary without any obligation. In case of a Request, Rabobank asks the

beneficiaries bank to issue the guarantee as their own guarantee. In this case Rabobank acts as a counter

guarantor.

Extra fields for this type of guarantee relate to details of the advance payment:

Retention money guarantee

Rabo Trade Access 29

Retention Money Guarantee. For the description, see Advance Payment Guarantee.

A Retention Money Guarantee is issued in exchange for the payment by the beneficiary of the last agreed

instalment. The guarantee amount and the amount of the last agreed instalment are equal. Therefore the amount

of the last agreed instalment does not have to be stated.

Credit Guarantee

Guarantee contains a default wording for the obligation to be guaranteed, which is: ‘credit- and/or banking

facilities granted to (or on the account of) the Principal Debtor’. The only additional information that needs to be

stated is whether URDG 758, Dutch Law or Other is opted for.

3.5.4 Tab Text

Use the tab Text if you want to add a required guarantee text. Rabobank will issue the guarantee in accordance

with this text, when it is agreed upon. Any remarks are communicated through RTA.

Adding a text is not mandatory.

You may add a text in the Guarantee Text field or upload a word document, not both.

Rabo Trade Access 32

After all the required details for the guarantee application have been entered, you can click on Confirm at the

function ‘Authorise Guarantee’, which will be discussed later in this document.

You can use the function ‘Modify Transaction’ to subsequently modify an application before authorisation. Again,

this is discussed later on in this document.

You can save the transaction in the course of creating it by clicking on Save. In this case, the transaction will not be

sent to Rabobank. This enables the user to complete the transaction at a later time. These saved transactions can

also be resumed and completed by using the function ‘Modify Transaction’.

You can also save the transaction as a template. To do so, click on the button Template in the tab Instructions. The

template can then be used again on a later occasion instead of having to enter all details again from the start. This

process is also discussed later on in this document.

Rabo Trade Access 33

Approve a concept guarantee

To transform a concept to a final guarantee, the value of the field ‘What is your response to the concept?’ should

be changed to ‘Agreed, issue guarantee as per concept’.

If Rabobank composes the first draft or adjust your concept, it will be rejected initially and can be found in function

‘Resubmit Outward Guarantee’. Once approved by you, the guarantee can be issued by changing the value at field

‘What is your response to the concept?’ to ‘Agreed, issue guarantee as per concept’. Please refer to chapter 5 for

elaborated instructions.

When Rabobank agrees upon the concept text during the process of alignment, Rabobank will accept the

transaction. If you have not yet set the value of the field ‘What is your response to the concept?’ to ‘Agreed, issue

guarantee as per concept’ the transaction is offered in the function ‘Concept Guarantee Acceptance’.

Click on Guarantees in Rabo Trade Access menu bar to access the Guarantees functionalities and choose ‘Concept

Guarantee Acceptance’.

Select ‘Agreed, issue guarantee as per concept’, if you want Rabobank to issue in accordance with the last concept.

Or select ‘Cancel Application’, if you want to cancel the application.

If you choose to Issue the guarantee as per concept, the field ‘Add as pre-approved Guarantee Text’ becomes

editable. You may want to use the approved concept Guarantee text again in the future, so you can choose to add

this guarantee as a standard Guarantee. In the drop-down list you can state whether you want (Yes) or don’t want

(No) to add the Guarantee as a standard Guarantee.

Rabobank will examine the guarantee text for suitability and make it available at the function ‘Create Outward

Guarantee’.

Then check if all tabs show the correct input. The last tab contains the “confirm” button, to confirm the

transaction.

Rabo Trade Access 35

If successful, the screen will show the following message: “Transaction completed”.

Now the transaction has the status “Pending” and has to be approved by the supervisor which uses the function

“Authorise Guarantee”, which will be discussed later in this document.

Amend Outward Guarantee

You can request for an amendment to a issued Outward Guarantee via RTA. Depending on the type of guarantee

and the type of validity, the changes that can be requested via RTA are: Extend, Increase, combined Extend and

Increase, combined Extend and Decrease and Revoke.

Rabobank will send the amendment to the same party as where the guarantee or the previous amendment has

been sent to.

3.7.5 Revoke

function’. This function will be explained hereinafter.

Use function ‘Modify Transaction’ to make changes in the amendment before authorisation the function ‘modify

transaction’ can be used.

The transaction can be saved using the button ‘Save’. The transaction will not be send to Rabobank. This allows

the user to continue with the transaction later on from function ‘Modify Transaction’.

refusal reason can be viewed from the function ‘View Status’.
