Frequently asked questions
What is a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA)?;
The MOA is a binding document that sets out the main terms of the purchase and sale of a vessel before the final transfer. It is drafted on the basis of the international MYBA standard and includes the price, deadlines, completion conditions, as well as clauses for positive inspection and sea trial.
Its signature marks the payment of an advance to an escrow agent, ensuring the transparency and security of the transaction for all parties involved.
What is the KYC (Know Your Client) process?;
The KYC (Know Your Client) process is a mandatory international step designed to ensure the legality of transactions, fraud prevention, money laundering and other illegal activities.
