The Challenge
Why Opening Business Accounts Is Challenging for Holding Companies
Holding companies that operate across borders face unique financial and operational constraints. Accessing local account details, managing multi-currency movements and maintaining compliance across multiple jurisdictions often becomes difficult without a unified solution. Traditional providers typically require in-country presence, additional documentation or local directors, making it harder for holding companies to operate efficiently.
Account Opening Barriers in Strategic Jurisdictions
Inconsistent Global Account Standards
Whether in the UK, the US, Singapore or Luxembourg, establishing entity level accounts is inconsistent, slow and often requires navigating processes built for domestic companies rather than cross border group structures.
Local Requirements Restrict Access
Non-resident directors, offshore shareholders, or group structures with foreign parent companies frequently trigger rejections or requests for local presence. This limits your ability to open accounts where you actually operate.
Compliance Friction Across Multi Entity Group Structures
Holding companies often face repeated KYC cycles because traditional providers struggle to interpret multi-tier ownership structures, creating delays and unclear documentation requests.
Complex Ownership Paths Slow Reviews
Multi-layer structures with parent companies, operating entities, and international directors often trigger manual investigations and unclear compliance queries.
Repetitive KYC and Verification
Most providers cannot centralise compliance across multiple entities, which forces holding companies to repeat the same process for each subsidiary.
Currency Risk & Operational Fragmentation Across Regions
Many holding companies still rely on isolated accounts, outdated online portals, and fragmented FX providers. This leads to poor visibility, exposure to unnecessary currency conversions, and operational inefficiencies across global entities.
