Client stories

First digitalised end-to-end secured Letter of Credit transaction

Contour and DBS have completed the first fully digital end-to-end secured Letter of Credit (LC) between Nanjing Iron & Steel, Singapore Jinteng International and Hope Downs Marketing Company (an equal Joint Venture between Rio Tinto and Hancock Prospecting). This resulted in reduced trade document turnaround times and provided greater transparency with all parties having access to real-time status updates at each step of the transaction.

Baosteel and Rio Tinto, supported by DBS Bank, Contour, Chinsay, essDOCS, have completed the first paperless trade in the iron ore industry transacted in Chinese Renminbi (RMB).
