About the Course
A negotiable instrument is transferable with a simple procedure requiring just a signature and delivery. This module begins with a short introduction to negotiable instruments and their kinds. We then walk you through what are promissory notes, bills of exchange, and cheques. The subsequent chapters of this module will give you an in-depth understanding of the difference between negotiation and assignment, endorsement, ambiguous and inchoate instruments, holder and holder-in-due-course, and the consequences of a negotiable instrument being dishonored. The two important terms' noting' and 'protest' are discussed in detail in the last part of this module.
