The determination of the discount rate for a re-export trade certificate is influenced by multiple factors. First, the market interest rate environment plays a role, as fluctuations in market interest rates directly affect the discount rate. When market interest rates rise, the discount rate typically increases; conversely, it decreases.
Second, the authenticity and stability of the trade background are crucial. If the re-export trade is reliable and the upstream and downstream partnerships are stable, banks may perceive lower risk and offer a more favorable discount rate.
Additionally, the company's credit status matters. Companies with high credit ratings and strong financial health are more likely to receive lower discount rates from banks. Discount rates may vary among banks due to differences in risk appetite and funding costs. To secure a better discount rate, companies should maintain a good credit record, provide clear and complete trade background documentation, and compare multiple banks to choose the most favorable policy.

Generally, the amount of the re-export trade certificate also affects the discount rate. Larger amounts may offer more room for negotiation. Additionally, the duration of the trade contract matters; shorter terms carry lower risk and may result in a lower discount rate.

The liquidity of financial markets also significantly impacts the discount rate for re-export trade certificates. When funds are abundant, banks compete for clients, potentially lowering the discount rate; when funds are tight, the discount rate may rise.

The discount rate also varies depending on the countries and regions involved in the re-export trade. Stable political and economic regions carry lower risk and may result in a lower discount rate.

The remaining term of the instrument is also important. Shorter remaining terms mean less discount interest and a relatively lower discount rate, as the bank bears risk for a shorter period.

Collateral arrangements also affect the discount rate. If the company can provide sufficient high-quality collateral, the bank's risk is reduced, potentially leading to a more favorable discount rate.
