The UCP is the most widely implemented, privately drafted banking regulation regarding the handling of documentary letters of credit in international trade transactions. Since 1933, six versions of the UCP have been used in managing letters of credit. However, the most current version, the UCP 600, is not as widely utilized as the previous version was, as the new version favors trade customers over banks. The banks favor customary law over these "rules” and thus exclude or modify the rules to favor themselves or their clients. Even though the language of the UCP 600 is inherently clear, only 10 percent of international trade transactions use the UCP 600 in regulating letters of credit. This book endeavors to illustrate the role that the UCP plays in trade history, and to clarify the issues surrounding the use of the UCP as a means for regulating letters of credit in world trade.
