      <Paragraph>Trade notes are legally accepted payment instruments such as
		bank drafts, checks, promissory notes, and bills of exchange. Trade notes can
		be used instead of cash payments. As trade notes are negotiable they can also
		be used as a credit instrument, for example, for discounting and endorsing.
		Trade notes can exist on paper and on magnetic supports, according to local
		business practices and banking standards.</Paragraph>
