FOREIGN CREDITS
BY HAROLD r. GREENE,
Manager Bond Department Guar
anty Trust Co. of New York.

This country has EN- erged from the
war as a creditor nation. The con-
tiuued high level Of our export trade
has resulted in Strengthening our po~
sition as creditor. II is doubtful
whether the public at large under
stands the Importance OF granting
credits to purchasers Of our products
N other countries The granting OF
credit to foreign countries does not
result in an expectation Of capital.
thereby reducing our power OF pro-
duction, as some would think. but an
exporta ton Of American goods which
have been produced in American fac
tories. Our capital equipment re-
mains in the country, and usually its
capacity is increased. 1t means that
the laborers are given more stea dv
Jobs: that the producers Of raw ma :
terials are kept busy: that all the re-
lated businesses through such manu-
facture feel the touch of this business
activity. That is the thing that we
need TO realize, and it is our business
today TO take such steps that may as
sist in keeping labor contented and
happy.
Credit Is the ltfehlood Of industry
and modern business is financed al.
most continuously with some form Of
credit
There are various ways in which
these credit transactions may. operate.
There IS the bank credit through ac-
ceptances, which covers rather short
term credit transactions The Eng
llsh purchaser OF American goods may
pay for them through sale in Amer
lean markets OF securities of Amer
lean corporations which have been
held abroad. or by sale of securities

The other ways in which foreign
credits NAV be established are through

that way sc me of the inorta TN t!Ie
part Of American investors regarding
investment Of capital outside Of the
country may be overcome II is alons
these lines that we may expect the
greatest development of foreign
credits in the next few years
The basis upon which credit ie
given is confldence-conhdenc in the
integrity of the borrower and his
ability to pay.
In granting credit to foreign gov
ernrnents the safest basis for conf
dence is the history of how they have
met their obligations. a long record
of faithful meeting of their obliga-
tons Is indicative of their endeavor
to do so in the future One OF the
best illustrations is that Of a Latin
American country in which the interest
payments on it's debt anne due dur
ing the period of revolution and both
parties forwarded the money to meet
interest charges. thereby conclusively
proving the desire of the people OF
that country TO keep their record
clear.
There may be willingness on the
part Of people to faithfully live W
to their obligations. but conditions
may be such that they are unable To
do SO. From the investment point OF
view, the ability of a government to
meet its obligations is dependent
usually upon three factors first the
the extent to which that government
