Did you know that it is a common practice to cover only your bank’s charge on international settlements? For example, if it is necessary for you to make a payment from Minsk to Berlin. The payment fee will be composed of your bank’s charge , that of all correspondent banks and your partner’s bank. As your partner can be the customer of practically any bank, it is quite natural that paying the charge of his/her bank is illogical and unprofitable. You should agree with your foreign partner to choose from three types of payments: - “Economical” – all transfer expenses are borne by the Beneficiary (BEN) ;
- “Optimal” - the Payer covers all transfer expenses of his/her bank, other expenses are borne by the Beneficiary (SHA);
