GENERAL COMMENTS

 

Opinion on the credit figure of US$ 100,000:

 

Investigations undertaken in Alexandria did not reveal any sign of payment defaults or delays during initial trading stages, and subject is believed to meet its payment obligations in a timely manner, nevertheless, and in view of the company’s infancy and the lack of a more consistent payment and financial record, a measure of caution is advisable and a close monitoring of subject’s business development is recommended.

 

Maximum suggested credit figure: US$ 30,000
