Answer / chinmaya
a "bill of exchange" or a "Hundi" is a kind of legal
negotiable instrument used to settle a payment at a future
date. It is drawn by a drawer on a drawee wherein drawee
accepts the payment liability at a date stated in the
instrument. The Drawer of the Bill of Exchange draw the
bill on the drawee and send it to him for his acceptance.
Once accepted by the drawee, it becomes a legitimate
negotiable instrument in the financial market and a debt
against the drawee. The drawer may, on acceptance, have the
Bill of Exchange discounted from his bank for immediate
payment to have his working capital funds. On due date, the
bill is again presented to the drawee for the payment
accepted by him, as stated therein the bill.

Answer / nicholas
A bill of exchange is a document that is sometimes used in
home trade, but it is most commonly used in foreign trade.
it is particularly used in the settlement of international
debts. the bill of exchange is made out by the
seller/exporter (the creditor) of goods requiring that the
buyer/importer (the debtor) pays a sum of money on demand,
or on n agreed future date (usually after three months).
both the buyer and the seller benefit from the use of bill
of exchange. the buyer obtains credit on the transaction,
and the seller benefits because instead of waiting for
payment he can either sell the bill at a 'discount',
'negotiate' it by using it to pay off his own debts, or use
it as collateral against a bank loan.
