  • Irrevocable Letter of Credit (ILOC) – An ILOC or standby letter of credit is a contractual agreement between a financial institution (bank) and the party to whom the letter is issued. It requires the bank to pay drafts that meet the terms of the letter of credit. ILOCs can be used to secure cash owed by an insured under various types of risk financing programs (eg deductibles and retrospective loss payments). They can also be used as a form of guarantee in a construction context, where they have the advantage of not being subject to a preferential requirement when filing for bankruptcy.
