1 The author focuses his discussion primarily on the decisions of courts in the United States, although his references to secondary sources are broader.

2 The author prefers to view the letter of credit as consisting of two sets of contractual obligations: one involving a three-party contract among the customer, the issuing bank and the advising (or confirming) bank; and the other involving a contract between the beneficiary and the issuing bank (with the confirming bank added as a third party).
