Money market instrument

Aaccastudent7y ago
In banker's acceptance (BA) instrument, is the firm issuing BA first required to deposit the money in bank before the bank issues the firm BA or The firm will pay the bank later ..after the transaction is settled ..ie. after the bank has paid the other party ( holder of BA) the amount owed by the firm. Thank you

The amount is deposited with the bank when the BA is issued. From then on it is just like a cheque except it is guaranteed by the bank.
