40. The transferable credit is designed to meet the requirements of international trade. It enables a middleman who is receiving payment from a buyer under a documentary credit to transfer his claim under that credit to his own supplier. In this way he can carry out transactions with only a limited outlay of his own funds. A transferable credit may only be transferred once. The second beneficiary may not further transfer it unless there is an express provision to this effect in the original credit. This limit on transferability is intended to prevent abuse.

41. A contract is an agreement by which two parties mutually promise to buy or sell some products. In practice, some informal contracts may be reached orally. This is understandable, but may lead to unfortunate consequences. A reasonable exporter should at least insist on strict observance of the legal requirements in case of orders that are not routine transactions. When the goods ordered represent a considerable value, a formal contract embodying all terms of the agreement should be prepared in duplicate; each copy should be signed by both parties, and each party should retain a copy of the contract.

43. 沒有可保利益的保險(xiǎn)合同是無效的。而任何根據(jù)這類合同提出的索賠都不會(huì)被受理。

44. 最近幾年運(yùn)輸功能引人注目的另一個(gè)因素就是越來越多的使用零庫存系統(tǒng)。這種系統(tǒng)是以公司保持很少數(shù)量的生產(chǎn)投入為基礎(chǔ)的。
