Bank Relationship Management Service

SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATING THE BANKING MAZE

Banks have complex organizational structures. For the corporation, that complexity is amplified by the number of banks it does business with. Add international locations and mergers & acquisitions to the mix, and treasury faces a labyrinth of accounts, creditor obligations, and connectivity challenges. If you’re not a full-time banking professional, the information you need – and the functional areas you must reach for resolution – can remain hidden within a fog of organizational complexity impossible for outsiders to decipher.

Actualize Consulting serves as the “outsider’s insider,” helping clients navigate their maze of banking relationships to address core questions such as:
›    Which banking products and services are required for your business needs, are worth pursuing, and with whom?
›    Where should banking relationships be managed – centrally or locally?
›    Who do you call to resolve immediate problems
such as transaction delays or account balances or long-term concerns like project delays, rates, terms or connectivity?
›    How do you objectively measure, compare, and assess the relative value of your bank relationships?
›    What’s the optimal way to manage wallet share and minimize risk?
​›    How reasonable are your bank fees?
​
