Multi-lateral Netting: simplicity at its best

Netting is a smart payment and information system that centrally settles inter-company and third-party invoices between more than two subsidiaries. It reduces multiple cash flows to a single settlement for each subsidiary, substantially reducing the associated cost of payments and foreign currency trades.

Our global netting solution is offered by our 100% subsidiary Bank Mendes Gans (BMG).

Your netting solution for all entities

Centralise control and visibility

Introducing a single global netting concept that covers all currencies and countries helps companies to standardise information and increase control. This saves time on transaction processing, reconciliation and problem resolution. It also provides better visibility of net FX positions at the corporate level, which functions as a powerful tool for hedging exposures.

Minimise transactions and FX

Cut the number of international payments from thousands to just one per subsidiary per month. Fewer transactions means fewer counterparties. Our solution has helped clients to achieve significant reductions in both payments and FX costs, between 55% and 80% on average.

Reduce workload

We take care of all the resource, operational and financial burdens so that you can focus on strategic decision-making. There is no more need for hiring, keeping up expertise, continuity concerns or technology investments.

Benefit from a truly global netting

Optimised settlements

Evolve from randomly settling inter-company transactions on various due dates to combining all payable and receivable transactions into just one netted amount per subsidiary. Our sophisticated netting solution saves administration time and can be used for all kinds of international payments, from inter-company loans to dividends.

Overcome local restrictions

Netting allows all your entities, regardless of country of domicile, to settle their obligations to other entities in any other country. This includes entities in countries that restrict the actual offsetting of payables and receivables.
