Details

The Bills of Exchange Ordinance (Cap.19) regulates bills, cheques, promissory notes and e-cheques, which underpin many commercial payment systems. However, the Ordinance’s technical language can be challenging for readers.

This text addresses that difficulty through a structured, practice-focused explanation. Drawing on charts, tables and a dedicated flowchart, the author analyses each provision of the Ordinance, explains how the relevant instruments operate in practice, and identifies points of practical and legal significance. The second edition incorporates updated case law and includes a sample e-cheque.

Given the cross-border character of many financial transactions, issues of jurisdiction and choice of law may also arise. The book offers guidance on determining the applicable law where conflicts occur.

The book is intended for examination candidates, bankers, legal practitioners and students of commercial law who require a clear, reliable reference on the Ordinance and its practical application.
