Can it be performed for accounts of subsidiary companies?

Yes, notional pooling can be performed among accounts of subsidiary companies.

Where will the interest benefit be allocated to?

Interest derived from notional pooling can be apportioned to the pool master account or the sub-accounts.

What’s the difference between Notional Pooling and Cash Concentration?

Cash Concentration requires the physical movement of funds into one account. Inter-company loans are created as funds move between the accounts of different companies. There is no physical movement of funds for Notional Pooling as account balances are notionally set-off.

Can we do this on a regional basis?

Notional Pooling only works across accounts in the same location. In addition, we provide interoperability with other liquidity techniques such as Cross-Border Sweep and Interest Optimisation to consolidate funds from multiple countries. However, they are subject to the regulations of each country.
