What is a BOV Bank Guarantee?

BOV Bank Guarantees are official documents in which the Bank promises that the borrower will be able to repay a debt to another party, subject to them having an approved guarantee facility, regardless of their financial circumstances when the debt is due. Essentially, it is a legal agreement in which the Bank promises to step into the borrower's behalf if such borrower cannot make the relative payment. These are commonly used in infrastructure, real estate and international trade projects.
