- a Credit Application which includes permission for a Bank nominated by the WFP Service Provider to check the applicant's credit worthiness.
- the WFP service provider's Banker being satisfied that the Retailer is worthy to be granted credit, it offers to the Retailer an Insured Unsecured Irrevocable Assignable Bank Guarantee for the amount of the ordered stock from the wholesaler.
- This financial instrument is payable to the Wholesaler on presentation, but is to be withheld by the Bank at the request of the wholesaler, as a collateral security for the issuing of the Letters of Credit if so required by the wholesaler to purchase the ordered stock from either local or overseas Suppliers.
- the stock is freighted fully insured, is processed at the wholesaler's warehouse and subsequently delivered and invoiced to the Retailer.
- the retailer may choose to have the Bank Guarantee cancelled and returned to the issuing Bank or to maintain it operative to support further purchases.
- the wholesaler may exercise its option to cash the Bank Guarantee.
- the Bank will then claim the paid amount to the wholesaler from the WFP Service Provider's nominated Insurer, which results in the Bank being fully reimbursed.
- the Insurer reserves its right of recovery from the Retailer, and to report the defaulting retailer to a credit record bureau or mercantile agency.

- the Retailer (3) furnishes and submits to the WFP Service Provider a credit application, authorising (4) the WFP Service Provider and (4A) the nominated WFP banker to check its credit worthiness and to issue on its behalf an insured unsecured irrevocable, assignable guarantee in favour of the Wholesaler.
- the nominated bank Once the nominated bank is satisfied that the Retailer's credit is in order, it approves the application and sends it (5) via the WFP Service Provider (6) to the WFP Service Provider's Insurer, seeking the issue of the insurance cover for the bank guarantee.
- the insurer (7) Upon approval being granted, the insurer (7) issues the policy in favour of the bank and (8) reports the event to the WFP Service Provider.
- the bank issues the insured unsecured irrevocable assignable bank guarantee on behalf of the Retailer, in favour of the Wholesaler and (9) informs the WFP Service Provider, whom in turn (10) informs the Wholesaler that the sale of inventories transaction to the Retailer is fully guaranteed by effect of an insured, unsecured, irrevocable, assignable bank guarantee.
- the Wholesaler then may exercise its option to raise unsecured working capital by requesting the bank (11) via the WFP Service Provider, to withhold the insured unsecured irrevocable assignable bank guarantee(s) as security for an advance by means of a letter of credit issued in favour of the Inventories Supplier (12) via the Supplier's banker, in order to procure the inventories purchased by the Retailer.
- the Supplier's bank informs the Supplier (13) that upon delivery of the ordered stock by the Wholesaler, payment of the L/C will be made effective.
- the Supplier delivers the inventories to the Wholesaler, (15) who then delivers and invoices the Retailer.
- the Retailer pays the Wholesaler as agreed.
- the Wholesaler pays to the bank the advance made to it by means of the L/C.
- the Retailer having chosen not to cancel the bank guarantee but to keep it floating, issues a new irrevocable purchase order and a new identical trading cycle repeats the one described in Fig #1 by steps (1) to (17).
- the Retailer if the Retailer defaults payment of its obligation to the Wholesaler, then (19) the Wholesaler exercises its option to cash the irrevocable bank guarantee, pays to the bank the outstanding debt represented by moneys advanced by means of the L/C if any, and keeps the balance. (20) The bank claims on the insurance policy covering the insured unsecured irrevocable assignable bank guarantee.
- the service provider's insurer (21) assigns to the Wholesaler the duty of (22) judicial recovery from the Retailer, and instructs the WFP Service Provider (23) to report to a mercantile agency the default incurred by the Retailer.
- the wholesaler reimburses the WFP service provider's insurer.
