IOLTA

IOLTA

IOLTA is a proven solution for attorneys who manage short-term funds for their customers. Our accounts meet state IOLTA requirements for receipt of interest on attorney accounts.

  • Use your monthly statements for a record of deposits, disbursements, and interest remitted to IOLTA.
  • Access IOLTA accounts in every state where we have branches.

Escrow Accounts

Escrow Accounts

Many businesses rely on Escrow Accounts to organize and manage segregated client assets.

  • Hold funds for a single client or use an Escrow Master-Sub Relationship for multiple client accounts. 
  • Use your consolidated monthly statements to keep track of client deposits and earned interest. 
  • Reduce your administrative burdens with 1099 IRS Tax Forms automatically issued to clients at year-end.
Zero Balance Accounts

Zero Balance Accounts

If your business keeps large amounts of cash and multiple bank accounts, a Zero Balance Account makes it simple to manage your balances and to enhance your returns.

  • Use your master account to maintain liquidity, and invest excess funds to increase your returns.
  • Simplify funding and reduce the risk of idle cash balances.
  • Reduce your need to track daily cash flows in each account.

A Sweep Account allows you to maximize returns on your idle cash.

  • Choose an overnight Repurchase Agreement or Money Market Mutual Fund investment account.
  • Have your principal automatically invested.
  • Save time and earn higher rates of return, depending on your risk/return priorities.
