史:請(qǐng)您具體談?wù)劇?/p>
R:Sure. We handle all types of letters of credit, and also advise if they should be irrevocable,
斯:可以,我們操作各類(lèi)信用證,并且提供相應(yīng)的咨詢(xún)-例如建議哪些應(yīng)做不可撤銷(xiāo)信用證,
whether they should be confirmed, whether we would recommend them in certain circumstances.
哪些信用證應(yīng)確認(rèn),有些時(shí)候,我還要推薦適當(dāng)?shù)男庞米C。
And of course, we deal with documentary collections and so on.
當(dāng)然,我們也處理單據(jù)托收。
H:So your division is to ensure that its customers receive payment for the goods they expect.
史:因此,你們部負(fù)責(zé)確保客戶(hù)及時(shí)收到貸款。
R:That's where we can help an exporter like your corporate.
斯:對(duì),是這樣。我們可以在托收貸款方面為像你們這樣的大公司提供服務(wù)。
You see, it can happen any time that an exporter has to wait two or even three years before they areable to obtain their money after they ship goods to a buyer abroad.
你想,有時(shí)候,出口商向國(guó)外發(fā)貨以后,要等到二年,甚至三年以后才能拿到貸款。這樣不愉快的事時(shí)有發(fā)生。
It could be of any reason. That's why we always hear people say that exporting is easy;
原因可以是各種各樣的,因此我們經(jīng)??梢月?tīng)到這樣的牢騷:出口容易,
it's getting paid that's the hard part.
要錢(qián)難。

史:恐怕,我們公司也會(huì)不時(shí)地面臨這種尷尬的局面。
R:But of course, we're not all the time selling a service.
R:當(dāng)然,我們部并不總是客戶(hù)推銷(xiāo)我們的服務(wù)。
A lot of the time we give advice and solve problems to our customers.

H:What's a typical problem that you would expect a customer to come to you about?
史:一般情況下,客戶(hù)會(huì)帶著什么問(wèn)題來(lái)向你們咨詢(xún)呢?
R:For example, just recently we had one with a contract that was signed to supply some machineryto a company in France.
斯:就拿最近的例子來(lái)說(shuō)吧。我們處理了一個(gè)向法國(guó)提供機(jī)械的合同。
H:What happened? And what role did you play?
史:怎么啦?你們?cè)谄渲杏职缪萘耸裁唇巧?
R:The contract was originally drawn in USD, but the French company was not permitted to coverforward for any length of time.
斯:當(dāng)初簽合同時(shí),是以美元為計(jì)算單位的。但那家法國(guó)公司無(wú)權(quán)做任何時(shí)間范圍內(nèi)的期貨交易,
They would have to buy the necessary USD to pay the bill.
他們又必須買(mǎi)進(jìn)一定數(shù)目的美元付帳。
H:I see.
史:噢!
R:So we bought currency for the customer and our customer could then work out his price in Frenchfrancs instead of US dollars.
斯:于是我們?yōu)檫@家法國(guó)客戶(hù)買(mǎi)進(jìn)了美元,這樣他們就可以用法郎而不是美元來(lái)計(jì)算貨款了。
H:Fine. OK, I think we've covered everything now, haven't we?
