Track remitting, collecting and presenting bank milestones where applicable.
Outcome archive
Record payment, acceptance, refusal, release or return of documents.

D/P or D/A route

Document pack
Commercial invoice, bill of lading, insurance and certificates can be tracked.
Presentation status
Bank handling, buyer notice and document release milestones are logged.
Outcome file
Payment, acceptance, discrepancy, refusal or return evidence stays organised.

Consultancy and coordination, not instrument issuance.
MCB can help organise requirements, document packs, review notes and workflow visibility. Issuance, approval, verification and regulated decisions remain with the relevant authorised parties.
- Prepares structured information for handoff.
- Tracks documents, timing and unresolved actions.
- Keeps role boundaries clear throughout the workflow.
