四、海上保险的风险
(1)、海上风险(Perils of Sea) a.自然灾害(natural calamity) b.意外事故(fortuitous accidents) (2)、外来风险(Extraneous Risks)
a.一般意外事故(General Extraneous Risks)
凡一般外来原因造成的风险,称为一般外来风险,这类风险一般包括偷窃、提货不着、短量、混杂、沾污、渗漏、碰损、破醉、串味、受潮受热、包装破裂、淡水雨淋、钩损、锈损等。 b.特殊意外事故(Special Extraneous Risks)
特殊外来风险是指除一般外来风险以外的其他外来原因导致的风险,常见的特殊外来风险,主要有战争风险、罢工风险、进口国有关当局拒绝进口或没收货物的风险等。

保险标的在运输过程中遭遇海上风险直接造成船舶或货物的部分损失,属于这种特定利益方的部分损失,即为单独海损。 b.共同海损(General Average)
在海洋运输途中,当船舶、货物或其他财产遭遇共同危险时,为了解除共同危险,有意采取合理的救难措施,所直接造成的特殊牺牲和支付的特殊费用,称为共同海损。 (3)、保障的费用
a.施救费用(Sue and Labor Expense)
施救费用是指货物遭遇承保范围内的事故时,被保险人或其代理人、雇员和受让人为避免或减少损失而采取各种抢救、保护措施所产生的合理费用。 b.救助费用(Salvage Charges)
载货船舶中途遭遇海难,由保险人和被保险人以外的第三者采取救助措施,在救助成功后,由被救方付给救助方的报酬,称为救助费用。由于救助行为使船、货避免或减少损失,从而可减少保险人的赔偿金额,故救助费用应由保险人负责赔偿。
六、海洋运输货物保险(险种及其投保范围)
(1)、平安险(FPA——Free from Particular Average) 全部损失+共同海损+意外事故造成的部分损失 单独海损不赔
(2)、水渍险(WAP——With Particular Average)

二、术语价格(Terms of Price)
(1)、术语价格构成
FOB价格=进货成本价+国内费用+净利润
CFR价格=进货成本价+国内费用+国外运费+净利润
CIF价格=进货成本价+国内费用+国外运费+国外保险费+净利润 (2)、术语价格换算 a. CIF—FOB
CIF价格=FOB价格+国外运费+国外保险费
变形:CIF价格=FOB价格+CIF价格*(1+原保险加成率)+国外运费
FOB价格=CIF价格*[1-(1+原保险加成率)*保险费率累加]-国外运费
FOB价格+国外运费
CIF价格=
1−(1+原保险加成率)∗保险费率累加
b. CFR—CIF
CFE价格=CIF价格*[1-(1+保险加成率)*保险费率累加]
CFR价格
变形:CIF价格= 1−(1+原保险加成率)∗保险费率累加
c. CFR—FOB
CFR价格= FOB价格+国外运费
三、含佣价(C-included Price)
(1)、书写方式
用英文字母“C”代表佣金(Commission),并注明佣金的百分比。例如:每公吨1000美元, CIFC3%,香港。 (2)、佣金计算方式
a.单位货物佣金=含佣价*佣金率 b.(单位)净价=含佣价-单位货物佣金
例:卖方报价为某货物每公吨1000美元, CIFC3%,则: 每公吨货物应支付的佣金=1000×3%=30(美元) 卖方每公吨实际收入=1 000-30=970(美元)
净价
c.含佣价= 1−佣金率
例:已知某商品对外报价为不含佣金CIF价2000美元,外商要求报 CIFC4%。若保持我方的净收入不变,则对外改报的含佣价应为: 含佣价= 1−4%=2083.83
2000

四、票据
(1)、汇票(Bill of Exchange)
汇票是出票人(drawer)签发的,委托付款人(drawee)在见票时或者在指定日期无条件支付确定的金额给收款(payee)人或者持票人的票据。 a.汇票上须记载的事项 表明“汇票”的字样; 无条件支付的命令; 确定的金额;
受票人/付款人(Drawee’s)的签名和地址; 受款人/收款人(Drawer’s)的签名; 出票日期和地点; 期限; 支付地点
(2)、出票(Issue)
出票(Issue),即汇票的签发,是指出票人在汇上填写付款人、付款金额、付款日期和地点以及受款人等项目,经签字交给收款人的行为。可见,出票由两个动作组出票人写成汇票在汇票E签字;二是出票人将汇票交付给,款人。由于出票是设立债权债务的行为,所以只有经过交付,汇票才开始生效。 (3)、背书(Endorsement)
背书(Endorsement)是转让汇票权利的一种法定手续,指持票人在汇票的背面记载背书文句、签名,并把汇票交付给被背书人的行为。 背书分类:
a.记名背书(Special Endorsement)。背书人(endorser)先作被背书人(endorsee)的记载,再签字。例如: “付给Smith或其指定人” (Pay to Smith or Order),经过记名背书的汇票,被背书人可以再作背书,转让给他人。
b. 空白背书(Blank Endorsement)。背书人在汇票背面签字,但不记载被背书人的名称。经空白背书之后,受让人可以不需背书,仅凭交付再继续转让汇票。 c. 限制性背书(Restrictive Endorsement)。背书人在背书中加注限制汇票继续流通的文字,例如: “仅付A银行\" (Pay to A Bank only)。 (4)、提示(Presentation)
提示(Presentation) ,又称见票(Sight) ,是指收款人或持票人将汇票提交付款人要求付款或承兑的行为。 提示分类:
a.付款提示(Presentation for Payment),指汇票的持票人向付款人或承兑人出示汇票要求付款的行为。
b. 承兑提示(Presentation for Acceptance) ,指远期汇票的持票人向付款人出示汇票,要求付款人承诺到期付款的行为。 (5)、承兑(Acceptance)

承兑的具体手续是由付,在汇票正面写上“承兑”字样,注明承兑的日期,并由付款人签名,
交还收款人或其他持票人。
(6)、付款(Payment)
付款(Payment)是指付款人向持票人按汇票金额支付票款的行为。
无论是即期汇票,还是远期汇票,当持票人做付款提示时,付款人均应立即付款。对即期汇票,
在持票人提示汇票时,付款人即应付款;而对远期汇票,付款人经过承兑后,在汇票到期日付款。
(7)、拒付(Dishonor)
拒付(Dishonor) ,也称退票,指持票人的汇票要求承兑时,遭到拒绝承兑 (Dishonour by
Non-acceptance),或持票人提示汇票要求付款时,遭到拒绝付款 (Dishonour by Non-payment)。 追索权:如汇票在合理时间内提示,遭到拒绝承兑,或在到期日提示,遭到拒绝付款,对持票人
立即产生追索权,他有权向其“前手”追索票款。 行使追索权的条件:
a.汇票遭到付款人拒绝承兑或拒绝付款。
b.持票人已在法定期限内向付款人作承兑提示或付款提示。 c.持票人为了行使追索权应及时作成拒付证书(Protest)。 (8)、汇票分类
a.按出票人不同划分 银行汇票(Banker's Draft)
是指由银行签发的汇票,是一家银行向另一家银行发出的书面支付命令,出票人和付款人都是银行。
商业汇票(Trade Bill)
是指由企业或个人签发的汇票。商业汇票的付款人可以是企业、个人或银行。 b.按有无附属单据划分 光票(Clean Bill)
是由出票人开立的不附任何单据的汇票。银行汇票多为光票。光票常在国际贸易中支付佣金、待垫费用以及收取货款尾数时开立。 跟单汇票(Documentary Bill)
是指附带有关单据的汇票,附带单据可能是发票、提单、保险单、产地证明等。商业汇票多为跟单汇票。
c.按付款时间不同划分
即期汇票(Sight Bill或 Demand Draft)
是指持票人向付款人提示后对方立即付款,又称“见票即付”汇票。银行汇票多是即期汇票。 远期汇票(Time Bill或Usance Bill)
是指在出票一定期限后或特定日期付款的汇票。远期汇票多为商业汇票。 远期汇票的付款时间,有以下几种规定办法: 见票后若干天付款(At xx days after sight); 出票后若干天付款(At xx days after date);
提单签发日后若干天付款(At xx days after date of Bill of Lading); 指定日期付款(Fixed date) (9)、本票(Promissory Notes)

b.不记名支票(Check Payable to Bearer),又称空白支票。支票上不记载收款人姓名,只写“付来人” (Pay Bearer)。取款时持票人无须在支票背面签章,即可支取。
c.划线支票(Crossed Check )是在支票正面划两道平行线的支票。划线支票不同于一般支票。一般支票可委托银行收款入账,也可由持票人自行提取现款。而划线支票只能委托银行代收票款入账。
d.保付支票(Certified Check)是指由付款银行在支票上加盖“保付”戳记并签字的支票。支票一经保付,付款银行就负有绝对付款的义务。保付支票具有更好的信誉,可靠性增强,身价也随之提高,更有利于流通。
五、支付方式(Payment Methods)
(1)、汇付(Remittance)
汇付(Remittance)又称汇款,指付款人(债务人)主动通过银行或其他途径将款项汇交收款人(债权人)的一种结算方式。 汇付方式的当事人:
汇款人( Remitter)。即汇出款项的人,在进出口交易中,汇款人通常是进口人;
收款人(Payee or Beneficiary)。即收取款项的人,在进出口交易中,收款人通常是出口人; 汇出行(Remitting Bank)。即受汇款人的委托汇出款项的银行,通常是在进口地的银行;
汇入行(Paying Bank)。即受汇出行委托解付汇款的银行,故又称解付行,在对外贸易中,通常是出口地的银行。 汇付的方式:
电汇 (Telegraphic Transfer-T/T) 信汇 (Mail Transfer-M/T) 票汇(Demand Draft-D/D) (2)、托收(Collection)
托收是指由接到托收指示的银行根据所收到的指示处理金融单据和/或商业单据,以便取得付款/承兑,或凭付款/承兑交出商业单据,或凭其他条款或条件交出单据。 托收方式的当事人:
委托人(Principal或Consignor),即委托银行向国外付款人代收货款的人,通常为出口人; 托收行( Remitting Bank),即接受出口商的委托代为收款的出口地银行。托收行有义务按照委托人的指示办事,它与委托人之间是委托代理关系。因此,托收行对单据的正确性不负责任; 代收行(Collecting Bank),是指接受托收行的委托向付款人收取票款的进口地银行,它通常是托收银行的国外分行或代理行。代收行应遵照托收行的指示,尽快向付款人提示汇票,要求其付款或承兑,并在付款或承兑后,及时通知托收行;
提示行(Presenting Bank),是指向付款人提示汇票和单据的银行。代收行可以自己兼任提示行,也可以委托与付款人有账户往来关系的银行作提示行;
付款人(Drawee),是根据托收指示,向其提示单据的人。如使用汇票,即为汇票的受票人,也就是付款人,通常为进口人。
托收的分类:
A.据委托人签发的汇票是否附有单据划分: a.光票托收(Clean Collection)
是指委托人仅签发金融单据不附有商业单据的托收,即提交金融单据委托银行代为收款。 b.跟单托收(Documentary Collection)是指委托人签发的金融单据中附有商业单据或不附有金融单据的商业单据的托收。
B.按照货物单据和货款的支付是否同时进行划分:
a.付款交单(Documents against Payment,简称D/P)是指出口人的交单以进口人的付款为条件,即出口人发货后,取得装运单据,委托银行办理托收,并指示银行只有在进口人付清货款后,才能把商业单据交给进口人。
在付款交单情况下,按付款时间的不同又可细分:
即期付款交单(Documents against Payment at sight,简称D/P at sight)
即出口人发货后开具即期汇票连同商业单据,通过银行向进口人提示,进口人见票后立即付款,进口人在付清货款后向银行领取商业单据。
远期付款交单(Documents against Payment after sight,简称D/P after sight)
即出口人发货后开具远期汇票连同商业单据,通过银行向进口人提示,进口人审核无误后即在汇票上进行承兑,于汇票到期日付清货款后再领取商业单据。 b.承兑交单(Documents against Acceptance,简称D/A)
是指出口人的交单以进口人在汇票上承兑为条件。即出口人在装运货物后开具远期汇票,连同商业单据,通过银厅向进口人提示,进口人承兑汇票后,代收银行即将商业单据交给进口人,在汇票到期时,方履行付款义务。承兑交单只适用于远期汇票的托收。 托收风险防范
a.对于贸易管理和外汇管制较严的国家和地区,不宜使用托收方式。以免货到目的地后,由于不准进口或收不到外汇而造成损失。
b.在使用托收方式时,出口合同应争取按CIF或CIP条件成立。 c.运输方式若为非海运方式,不宜使用托收方式。 (3)、信用证(Letter of Credit)
信用证是一种银行开立的凭装运单据付款的书面承诺。 A.信用的特点:
a.信用证是一种银行信用; b.信用证是一项单据业务;
在信用证结算方式下,受益人所提交的单据不仅要做到“单证相符” (受益人提交的单据表面
上与信用证规定的条款相符),还要做到“单单相符”(受益人提交的各种单据之间在表面上不得互不一致)。
c.信用证是独立于其他合同之外的一种自足的法律文件。 B.信用证涉及的当事人: a开证申请人(Applicant)
申请人是指要求开立信用证的一方。在实际业务中,申请人通常为进口商/买家。. b.开证行(Issuing Bank)
开证行是指应开证申请人的要求或代表自己开出信用证的银行。
在实际业务中,开证行一般为进口地的银行。开证行和开证申请人(通常为进口商)之间的契
约是开证申请书。进口商在申请开证时,应根据开证行的要求,交付押金及手续费;开证行应
根据申请书条款,正确、及时地开出信用证。 c.通知行(Advising Bank)
指应开证行要求通知信用证的银行,通知行通常是出口地银行,而且一般是开证行的代理行。 d.受益人(Beneficiary)

一、订立合同的步骤
(1)、询盘(Enquiry)
询盘是准备购买或出售商品的人向潜在的供货人或买主探i该商品的成交条件或交易的可能性的业务行为,它不具有法律上的约束力。
询盘的内容可以涉及某种商品的品质、规格、数量、包装、价格和装运等成交条件,也可以
索取样品,其中多数是询问成交价格,因此在实际业务中也有人把询盘称作询价。 (2)、发盘(Offer)
凡向一个或一个以上的特定的人提出的订立合同的建议,如果其内容十分确定并且表明发盘人有在其发盘一旦得到接受就受其约束的意思,即构成发盘。 A.发盘有效期
a.规定最迟接受的期限
例如,限6月6日复,或限6月6日复到此地。当规定限6月6日复时,按有些国家的法律解释,受盘人只要在当地时间6月6日24点以前将表示接受的通知投邮或发出即可。但在国际贸易中,由于交易双方所在地的时间大多存在差异,所以发盘人往往采取以接受通知送达发盘人为准的规定方法。按此规定,受盘人的接受通知不得迟于6月6日内送达发盘人。 b.规定一段接受的期限
例如,发盘有效期为6天,或发盘限8天内复。
发盘包括实盘(Offer with Engagement)与虚盘(Offer without Engagement) An offer with engagement mostly provides the term of validity(有效期). B.发盘效力的终止/失效
a.在发盘规定的有效期内未被接受,或虽未规定有效期,但在合理时间内未被接受,则发盘的效力即告终止。
b.发盘被发盘人依法撤销。
c.被受盘人拒绝或还盘之后,即拒绝或还盘通知送达发盘人时,发盘的效力即告终止。(还盘即d对原发盘的拒绝,原发盘失效,新发盘产生)
d.发盘人发盘之后,发生了不可抗力事件,如所在国政府对发盘中的商品或所需外汇发布禁令等。在这种情况下,按出现不可抗力可免除责任的一般原则,发盘的效力即告终止。
e.发盘人或受盘人在发盘被接受前丧失行为能力(如患精神病等),则该发盘的效力也可终止。 (3)、还盘(Counter-Offer)
还盘是指受盘人不同意或不完全同意发盘提出的各项条件,并提出了修改意见,建议原发盘人考虑,即还盘是对发盘条件进行添加、限制或其他更改的答复。 (4)、接受(Acceptance)
接受在法律上称为承诺,它是指受盘人在发盘规定的时限内,以声明或行为表示同意发盘提 的各项条件。
接受的实质是对发盘表示同意。
受盘人对发盘表示接受,既可以通过口头或书面向发盘人发表声明的方式接受,也可以通过
其他实际行动来表示接受。
沉默或不行为本身,并不等于接受 A.逾期接受
逾期接受是否有效,关键看发盘人如何表态。 B.接受的撤回或修改
如果撤回通知于接受原发盘应生效之前或同时送达发盘人,接受得予撤回。由于接受在送达发盘人时才产生法律效力,故撤回或修改接受的通知只要先于原接受通知或与原发盘接受通知同时送达发盘人,则接受可以撤回或修改。
