particularly when commodities, fuels, or manufactured goods are at stake.
BQCIS provides the independent, verifiable evidence required to minimize disputes,
support claims management, and strengthen compliance under international trade rules.
Our reporting is recognized by counterparties, regulators, and arbitration panels alike,
making it a cornerstone of secure and transparent financing.

Case Example: Protecting Bank Exposure in Crude Oil Financing

A leading international bank financed a crude oil cargo under a letter of credit.
BQCIS inspectors performed full custody transfer verification and laboratory testing before
documents were released. Our independent evidence reduced settlement time by 40%
and prevented a USD 2.5 million exposure in a disputed quantity variance.
