With the Berkshire Bank Master Escrow Account, you can hold funds in a single, interest-bearing escrow account with sub-accounts for each client's funds.
If your business holds money in escrow for clients or tenants, you need to separate everyone's funds without the hassle of managing multiple bank accounts. A Master Escrow Account provides the solution, allowing you to manage funds without more paperwork and administrative costs.
- Your main corporate checking account disburses funds.
- All funds reimbursed to clients or tenants are taken from their sub-account and a check is drawn for the exact amount. As a result, the balance in the corporate checking account will always be zero.
- All information on the main operating account and all detailed information on the various client/tenant sub-accounts is sent monthly.
- Berkshire Bank calculates the year-end interest figure for each individual client or tenant.
- A completed IRS Form 1099 is mailed directly to your client or tenant.
