German term

Ankauf Ihrer Akkreditivforderungen

German to English Bus/Financial Finance (general) Letters of Credit
Taken from a bank's brochure describing its trade finance service offerings.

There is a list of 4 things:
 Taking on country risk on behalf of the opening bank

 Taking on country risk on behalf of you, the client

 Making advances against documentary credits

 Ankauf Ihrer Akkreditivforderungen

You in all of the above refers to the bank's customer

I have put "purchase of your payment obligations under documentary credits". I am not exactly sure what this transaction is ???
