      Sweeping and using virtual accounts are not available with this account.

    • Virtual account key features expandable section

      A virtual account structure operates beneath a physical bank account, functioning as a series of sub-ledgers linked to the main account. This setup allows you to efficiently segregate balances held in a physical account into various virtual accounts.

      This service is available for all current accounts. This is not available for deposit accounts such as the 32-Day Notice account and 95-Day Notice account.

      Types of virtual accounts

      Standard virtual accounts:
      • Also known as Non Externally Addressable Virtual Accounts.
      • Use references to redirect funds from the real account to the appropriate virtual account.
      • If payments come in or go out without a reference, they are directed to a suspense account, requiring manual allocation by clients.
      • Ideal for managing client money or internal liquidity by separating funds.
      Externally Addressable Virtual accounts (EAVA):
      • These accounts can have unique sort codes, account numbers, and IBANs, distinct from the real account.
      • The system sends payments directly to these accounts, keeping the real account details hidden from the sender.
      • Supports various needs, including Pay on Behalf of (POBO) and Receive on Behalf of (ROBO) structures.

      Benefits

      • Optimisation of real accounts. Clients can reduce the number of real accounts they hold, leading to cost savings.
      • Enhanced data access. Provides clients with enhanced data, supporting smoother reconciliation processes.
      • Automatic allocation. The system automatically allocates payments and receipts to the correct account, immediately flagging unmatched transactions.
      • Configurable routing rules. Clients can configure routing rules to further enhance reconciliation.

      This structure offers a flexible and efficient way to manage funds, streamline operations, and improve financial oversight. If you have any questions or need further details contact your relationship director.

    • Sweeping expandable section

      Move money between your accounts automatically with sweeping. It’s a smart way to bring your funds together or set money aside for investing. 

      Link two or more accounts of the same currency and set balance threshold requirements for them. Automated end-of-day transactions will fund or de-fund accounts. They’ll do this based on the target balance specified for the associated account in the structure.

      Sweeping options

      • Standard sweeping. Move funds between your Gem accounts, whether they are in the same or different currencies.
      • Multi-bank sweeping. Transfer funds to and from third-party banks, but only in the same currency.

    Current accounts

    • Corporate expandable section

      This account gives you the flexibility to improve your cash management and support your business growth. It provides banking solutions for local and international needs.

      Everything is on one platform for consistency. So whether you connect via the online portal, host-to-host, API or SWIFT, you will see the same information as your clients. This consistency grants you the flexibility to start a task in one channel and finish it in another.

      Pledged accounts

      A versatile tool that can be used in any lending structure across various sectors.

      Here's how they work and what you need to know:

      • Security for third parties. If a third party takes security in the form of a charge against an account you have with us, you'll need to request that we waive our right to set off balances. This means we recognise the third party's claim if you default on your obligations to them.
      • Instant access to funds. You can access your funds instantly, as long as there are cleared funds available on an unblocked account.  If the account is blocked you will not have access to the funds.
      • Continued operation. Your pledged accounts will continue to operate under the same terms and conditions as your existing current account, unless we are notified of your default.
      • Default scenario. If we are notified that you have defaulted, the third-party charge holder can take control of the funds in the pledged account, provided they meet our Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance standards.
      • Online access. You can view the pledged accounts through our online digital channel.

      14 currencies available
