TT Talk – The IMB NVOCC Register
Reducing bills of lading risks
While there may be valid trading reasons that give rise to bill of lading difficulties, there is an unhealthy under-belly of criminal activity.
TT Talk canvassed some trading issues relating to bills of lading in the December 2018 edition. Reference within those articles was made to the English law position articulated in Motis Exports case1, explaining the risk exposure to bill of lading issuers and stakeholders relying on the documentation. This article applies to the industry vulnerability to fraudulent activity.
Banking scrutiny
The International Chamber of Commerce’s Commercial Crime Services division has a primary function of protect the integrity of international trade by seeking out fraud and malpractice and providing reports based on this activitiy to its members.
Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli.
Commercial banks commence thousands of investigations each year in relation to fraudulent bills of lading which are undertaken by the International Maritime Bureau (IMB), a division of CCS. Through the investigation process, IMB conducts due diligence on all trade documents, including bills of lading, and seeks independent third-party verification to provide an extra level of confidence in transactions. This supports banks in relation to their compliance procedures to prevent fraud, money laundering and sanctions breaches.
Suspect bills of lading are those which have false content including the wrong ship, dates, description of cargoes, container numbers or parties. Perpetrators present such bills of lading to banks to facilitate fraudulent activity including money laundering, fraud, illegal capital flight and to by-pass sanctions.
It is recognised that NVOCCs and freight forwarders play a vital role in international trade and whilst the majority operate to extremely high standards, there are inevitably those who for a variety of reasons may deliberately or recklessly issue bills of lading with false content. It is important that safeguards are in place to ensure the security of bills of lading and that there are systems in place to track any misuse.
As a result of recent trends involving bill of lading fraud and a growing concern of their stakeholders, the IMB developed a new initiative, unveiled at Enterprise, Singapore on 15 January 2019, during a panel discussion on the manipulation of bills of lading attended by over 100 delegates from banks, logistics companies and lawyers. The primary objective is to provide a common open platform from which to improve anti-fraud standards and to give due recognition to participating NVOCCs who adhere to the minimum standards established within the platform.
NVOCC vulnerability
"IMB estimates that over 95% of all improperly issued bills of lading are issued by NVOCCs."
From this work, IMB estimates that over 95% of all improperly issued bills of lading are issued by NVOCCs. This is a staggering finding, albeit relating to a small percentage of the total transactions, but a clear indicator of the vulnerability of some elements of the NVOCC sector.
Announcing IMB NVOCC register
“Maintaining the integrity of the bill of lading is of paramount importance to all stakeholders in global trade”
TT Club believes that this initiative to improve standards and reduce potential exposures to fraudulent activity through the supply chain is beneficial to the industry and would therefore encourage its NVOCC membership to evaluate the platform and consider participation in it.

The initiative introduces an open source NVOCC register in conjunction with a new IMB Code of Conduct which all participating NVOCCs are required to adopt. The Code of Conduct is supported by an online training course which sets out minimum standards for the issuance of NVOCC bills of lading. Participating NVOCCs remain accountable where a document they have issued is found to be fraudulent, however it is anticipated that a wider knowledge of good practice will result in fewer cases of fraud being identified.
Maintaining the integrity of the bill of lading is of paramount importance to all stakeholders in global trade. Where fraudulent activity is allowed to continue, there is a real danger that key stakeholders de-value the worth of the bill of lading. Inevitably, should the industry not be able to address commercially the challenge presented by the use of fraudulent documents, there is a risk that regulations may be required. This initiative recognises and seeks to address this industry wide challenge, seeking to promote awareness and support compliance with acceptable trade practices.

Allow me to share with you something the majority of septic companies will not: there are two kinds of people in this life. Those who think septic systems are just “buried containers for waste,” and those who have had raw sewage erupting into their yard at midnight. I understood this reality the tough way in 2005—waist-deep in muck, shivering in a Washington deluge, as my siblings and I aided a weathered installer restore our family’s failed system. I was a teenager. My hands were raw. My pants were destroyed. But that night, something clicked: This is not just manual labor. It’s folks’ lives we are protecting.
Here’s the dirty truth: nearly all septic companies just pump tanks. They’re like quick-fix salesmen at a disaster convention. But Septic Solutions? These guys are different. It all began back in the early 2000s when Art and his brothers—just kids scarcely tall enough to carry a shovel—aided install their family’s septic system alongside a grizzled pro. Imagine this: three pre-teens knee-deep in Pennsylvania clay, learning how soil permeability affects drainage while their buddies played Xbox. “We did not just dig trenches,” Art told me last winter, hot coffee cup in hand. “We understood how soil whispers truths. A patch of wetland vegetation here? That’s Mother Nature yelling ‘high water table.'”
