Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Letters of credit and bank guarantees are the most important financial instruments in international exchange. Matti S. Kurkela, a leading expert in the field, presents an advanced, extensive study and guide to letters of credit. The author analyzes the material rules and principles applicable to them; conflict of laws as well as law merchant applied regardless of place of operation or nationality of the parties involved.
Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees under International Trade Law is the only true guide whose focus is on international law and choice of applicable law, with comparisons of the UCP, the UCC and selected national laws. Bank attorneys, international bankers, commercial bankers, international trade and finance attorneys in law firms, in-house counsel, financial institutions, and academia will find this a clearly written, invaluable guide to the latest rules, case law and practice relating to these financial instruments.
The new, expanded Second Edition includes:
BL Analysis and comparison of commercial and standby credits, bank guarantees and bonds in use in international exchange
BL Introduction to the various sets of rules in use in international operations and banking
BL Changes made to the UCC Article 5 and UCP 600 BL New development and landmark decisions and case law since the publishing of the first edition
BL Guidance to and analysis of inter bank relationship, indemnity agreements and reference to sample documentation, and numerous sample clauses
BL Reference to statutory laws of lcs in various countries
Matti Kurkela has given practitioners, courts, and scholars a fine comparative study. Its heavy annotation of world-wide letter of credit and guarantee law sources with special emphasis on European and U.S. commercial law make it a genuinely unique offering. In this second edition, Kurkela once again emphasizes the law merchant dimensions of these commercial facilities that he calls 'independent offerings'. The scope is broad, the treatment deep. For those serious about letters of credit and bank guarantees, this treatise is a rich resource.
