Global banking expertise

We can help you improve your cash flow, manage risk, and compete more effectively in the global marketplace.

U.K. coverage. Local relationship. Regional payment solutions.

Our treasury management services offered at our U.K. branch help you consolidate your banking relationships while maintaining in-market banking expertise in the U.K., Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

You can potentially accelerate your cash flow for foreign receivables using our in-region accounts that give you access to local payment systems. With choices for British pound (GBP), Euro (EUR), and U.S. dollar (USD) as well as 17 other currencies, a U.K. branch account helps you make and collect payments throughout the world. You can send and receive wires conveniently and with robust security using our Payment Manager® (a host-to-host offering for consolidating multiple payment files), CEO Foreign Exchange On-Line, or (if you’re a SWIFT member) SWIFT services to initiate transactions.

You can make and receive non-urgent GBP (Bacs), GBP Faster Payments, and urgent high-value GBP payables and receivables transactions. For non-urgent payments, you can take advantage of the simplified payment format for the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) schemes for EUR payables and receivables.

You can use our online Global ACH service to send ACH payments in 11 currencies to more than 40 countries and territories. Beneficiaries receive electronic payments typically between two to five business days.

You can also receive ACH payments into your account, which could greatly reduce payment costs for your trading partners.
