Global Liquidity

Global Liquidity is our Internet-based cash concentration service designed to optimise your international cash management by automating the movement of funds ('sweeping' and 'topping') between overseas accounts and accounts in the UK.

Key features and benefits:

• Online features accessible from within the new Bankline Internet banking service, anytime and from any web browser.
• The single, integrated system allows you to view the balance and transaction details of all your corporate accounts through one system - giving you full visibility of cash held on accounts with partner banks across the world.
• Automated cash concentration rules defined by you mean that once set up, funds are automatically transferred when and where you require them - reducing administration and ensuring the most effective deployment of working capital on a global basis.
• Retain control over the sweeping and topping propositions, choosing to either set them to process automatically, or to release each transaction individually.
• With access to an extensive global partner network, Global Liquidity reduces disruption by often enabling you to retain valued local banking relationships.
