A bill issued to pay for purchases resulting from actual commercial transactions, and includes promissory notes and bills of exchange. Since it is a bill to settle for the price of goods, it is also called a commodity bill. A financing method in which financial institutions discount bills is called bill discounting or discounted bills, and most of these are commercial bills. Since commercial bills have actual commodity transactions as their background, the sales price of the goods is expected to be the settlement fund, so they can be said to have self-settling power or self-liquidity. Therefore, from the perspective of the financial institution that discounts them, they are settled in a relatively short period of time and there is little risk in terms of protecting the credit. However, it should be noted that there is a risk that the receipt of the sales price for the goods will fail and the bill will become dishonored, and that even if a bill for financial purposes that is not backed by actual commodity transactions is mixed in, it will not be easy to tell from the face of the bill.

実際の商取引を原因として、その買入れ代金の支払いのために振り出された手形のことで、約束手形と為替(かわせ)手形とがある。商品代金決済のための手形なので商品手形とよばれることもある。手形を金融機関が割り引く融資方式が手形割引ないし割引手形だが、そのほとんどを商業手形が占めている。商業手形は実際の商品取引を背景にもっているため、その商品の売却代金が決済資金として期待されるので、自己決済力あるいは自己流動性を有するといえる。したがって、これを割り引く金融機関の側からみれば、比較的短期に決済され、債権保全上の危険度も少ないということになる。しかし、商品の販売代金の入手が不調に終わって不渡手形になる危険、また商品の実取引の裏づけのない金融目的の融通手形が混入しても手形の表面上では容易にわからないという危険もあることに注意を要する。 [井上 裕] [参照項目] | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
