Secondly, if the demand turns out improper, the issuing bank could refuse to pay by its own decision or by the court’s injunction. Thirdly, to guarantee reimbursement from the applicant, the issuing bank may request to pay the credit amount in advance. Finally, to diversify the risk of the issuing bank, the issuing bank may sell participations to another bank.
