LIBOR is quoted on a one-month, three-month, six-month or yearly basis. The six-month LIBOR is the one most commonly quoted for mortgages. Both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac use LIBOR as an indices for loans they purchase. The LIBOR rate can be found daily in The Wall Street Journal "Money Rates" table. Considered one of the most important barometers of the international cost of money, LIBOR has historically reflected money market rates more accurately than prime- and Treasury-based indices.

G & G GLOBAL Libor Loan
LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) is the rate on Eurodollars traded between banks in London. A Eurodollar is a dollar-denominated deposit in a bank in a country where the currency is not the dollar. The Eurodollar market is more than 40 years old and is a major component of the international financial markets.

we use the one-month, six-month and one year LIBOR index for our selection of competitively-priced mortgage solutions. Our clients enjoy saving potentially thousands of dollars by using LIBOR-based mortgages. What you should know:
- There is an initial interest-only period of 10 years, then fully amortizing for the remaining 15 years.
- One or six-month adjustment periods are available.
- If principal payments are made, subsequent interest-only payments will be recalculated monthly based on the new lower principal balance.
- Lifetime rate cap based on the greater of the initial rate plus 5%, or 12%, whichever is greater.
- Large loan amounts are available.
- You can complement this mortgage with our 100% home financing option.


TRADE&EXPORT FINANCE
Documentary Credits
Documentary credits usually require the presentation of certain documents, which must be complied with before payment can take place. You must be aware that G & G GLOBALs examine the documents only with respect to the documentary credit and do not look at contracts, agreements or the condition of the goods. We have compiled a set of checklists to help you make sure that every document is filled in correctly.
Overwiev of Documentary Credits
Documentary Credits for Exporters For an exporter, a documentary credit from the importer's G & G GLOBAL removes the risk that the buyer will not pay. Documentary Credits for Importers For an importer, a documentary credit requires the importer to comply with the agreed conditions for payment is made.
G & G GLOBAL Guarantees
A G & G GLOBAL G & G GLOBAL guarantee is an effective way of securing performance and payment in an increasingly challenging business environment.
Export Finance
As a solution provider to world-wide exporters, G & G GLOBAL offers you individual financing solutions that optimally support the demands of your business.
Export
Using documentary credits when you export goods or services means that the importer's G & G GLOBAL commits itself to paying you when the conditions of the credit have been met. This offers a number of advantages:
- Enhanced security of payment at the agreed time
- Enhanced security that the order received will not be cancelled or changed without your agreement
- Improved liquidity as payment often can be made shortly after shipment
- Possibility of extending security to subcontractors through the documentary credit
- The possibility of financing
It is important to note that the importer's G & G GLOBAL will make payment only after you have complied with all its requirements and conditions. You should therefore examine the documentary credit carefully when you receive it.

Risk & Financing
Confirmation
The G & G GLOBAL will endeavor to confirm the documentary credit at the request of the issuing G & G GLOBAL. This ensures that you will receive payment when you comply with the requirements of the documentary credit irrespective of the issuing G & G GLOBAL's willingness or ability to pay. Nor will you be affected if the country stops payments or other unforeseen problems arise.
Silet confirmation
Even if the issuing G & G GLOBAL does not request the G & G GLOBAL to confirm the documentary credit, the G & G GLOBAL can usually offer you a silent confirmation. This puts you in exactly the same position as if the documentary credit had been confirmed. The only difference is that the issuing G & G GLOBAL has not requested confirmation of the documentary credit.
Financing
If you have granted your buyer extended credit (deferred payment) but you would like payment immediately, the G & G GLOBAL will endeavor to discount the draft under the documentary credit at a competitive rate.
Security
Irrevocable payment order
Security Irrevocable payment order An irrevocable payment order assures third parties that money will not be paid to you before they received the amount due to them. Be aware that payment orders are not subject to statutory regulations on debt. This means that, should you go bankrupt or suspend payments, an amount will be payable only after a court decision or arbitration.
Assignment
An assignment also ensures that third parties will be paid ahead of you. Unlike an irrevocable payment order, an assignment is subject to statutory regulations on debt. This means that, in case of your bankruptcy or suspension of payments, an estate must respect the assignment if it is legally recorded, and the debtor is notified.
Transferable documentary credit
If the documentary credit is issued as a transferable documentary credit, you can have it transferred, completely or in part, to a third party. When you transfer a documentary credit, the following conditions can be changed:
the amount and any unit price can be reduced validity, shipment and presentation limits can be shortened any insurance percentage rate can be raised
