Bank Account Setup

Bank Account Setup
We help clients open corporate bank accounts in the United States and internationally, from newly formed companies to established businesses expanding into new markets. This includes identifying suitable banks, preparing application packages, supporting due diligence requirements, and guiding clients through to approval.


In most cases, we can arrange for the entire account opening process to be completed remotely, without requiring clients to travel to the jurisdiction. We also regularly assist with more complex cases, including those involving foreign ownership, international structures, enhanced due diligence requirements, or businesses that may not fit standard banking profiles.


Bank account opening is closely connected to the company's ownership, structure and business activities. Banks routinely review corporate documentation, ownership, source of funds and the nature of the business before approving an application. Preparing for these requirements includes responding to requests for additional information and supporting the process through to completion.


Our assistance also continues after the account is opened. This includes opening additional accounts as businesses expand, updating banking arrangements following changes in ownership or management, and, where appropriate, assisting with related personal accounts for business owners and founders.
