Demand guarantees and counter-guarantees are used by banks and businesses, every day in every industry and country, for an infinite range of payment or performance obligations.

Users and issuers choosing the URDG for their guarantees and counter-guarantees will find this Guide an indispensable companion.

With its clear and comprehensive commentary on the rules and the accompanying model forms, this Guide provides the key to a successful guarantee practice in all sectors and jurisdictions. In the Guide, the authors have put the essence of their experience in researching, practising and teaching the law and practice of demand guarantees over a period of twenty years.

They also share their experiences of the revision process leading to URDG 758, revealing the background of each policy choice and drafting decision they took while drafting the rules. Case studies throughout the Guide support and enliven the comprehensive analytical commentary on the rules.

The authors, respectively chairmen of the URDG 758 and the URDG 458 drafting groups, debunk the many myths about international guarantee practice and identify pitfalls to avoid. Further, they track in detail the seven key stages of a URDG guarantee’s lifecycle:

Drafting

Issuance

Changing of terms

Making a presentation

Examining the presentation

Making payment

Termination of the guarantee and counter-guarantee.
