Say a US Client of a Bank in the US requests a guarantee to be issued to a beneficiary in AU. The Bank has a branch in AU so the US branch issues a counter-guarantee to the AU branch and requests to AU branch to issue the guarantee to the beneficiary in AU.

Note that the US client has a liability line with the US branch and no relationship with the branch in AU.
