Cross border cash balancing

Streamline international cash flow by consolidating funds from various cross border subsidiary accounts and locations into a central account. By pooling international funds, organisations can maintain greater visibility and oversight over all-company cash flow with single currency cash consolidation and immediate access to funds, while still ensuring compliance with local regulations.

Optimise & centralise cross border funds

Sweep cross border funds

Pool cash from individual subsidiary accounts into a centralised location on a daily basis, ensuring international balances are consolidated for complete oversight and visibility of total organisational funds.

Promote liquidity optimisation

Optimise liquidity between multi-entity cross border accounts, transferring surplus cash to accounts in deficit. Reduce the need for external borrowing and expensive currency conversions, and move company cash flow to where it’s needed most.

Minimise trapped cash flow

Centralise international funds to reduce the risk of liquidity constraints, expensive currency conversion fees, and trapped cash flow when moving profits across borders. Maximise the efficiency of available funds to all international accounts, immediately transferring funds to subsidiary locations.

Maintain local regulatory compliance

Ensure compliance with local regulations by moving funds to a centralised location in line with country regulations. Whether cash management limits, capital controls, or repatriation of profits, pooling funds enables organisations to legally navigate restrictions on international cash flow transfers while maintaining compliance in varying local markets.

  • Centralise cross border funds to gain a comprehensive view of cash positions, flow, and financial activities across different companies.
  • Improve decision-making and cash flow forecasting with accurate visibility of available funds, deficits, and surplus cash in individual subsidiary accounts.

  • Promote greater cost efficiencies between subsidiary accounts with zero charges on intercompany transfers within the ING network.
