Backup Banking for High-Risk Businesses

Accounts, treasury and settlement continuity

A backup banking relationship can reduce operational concentration if it is opened transparently and used for an approved purpose.

Separate critical functions

Where suitable, maintain approved routes for operating cash, tax reserves and processor settlement.

Keep KYC consistent

Ownership, business-description and source-of-funds information should be accurate across providers.

Plan settlement changes

Document how processor bank details will be changed and verified if an account closes.
