You can maximize excess balances and earn interest when we “sweep” your available funds into one of our short-term investment accounts. You’ll always know where your account stands with daily reporting available through Fifth Third DirectSM, our secure, Internet portal.
Consider these Sweep Account options to help put your idle cash balances to work:
Consolidated Sweep: Aggregate your investable balances from multiple accounts to get a better rate based on the higher balances. We do not commingle balances from the individual accounts and we pay interest back to the individual accounts. You can use any sweep type for a Consolidated Sweep.
Money Market Account (MMA) Sweep: Our MMA Sweep is designed to help improve the productivity of your funds. We calculate the amount of collected funds in your commercial account after we post all credits and debits and automatically sweep surplus cash above the peg balance into the MMA Sweep.
NOW Sweep: A NOW Sweep transfers your excess funds from an Analysis Checking account into a NOW interest-bearing checking account. You can use the NOW Sweep if you want an investment vehicle that acts like a NOW account, but want to maintain a balance to cover service fees in your primary operating account.
Credit Sweep: Sweep funds in excess of the peg balance out of a checking account to offset a loan amount. The Credit Sweep can be set to pay down only or advance balances only. Credit Sweeps can help you reduce interest expenses and cover outstanding debt.
Eurodollar Sweep: Eurodollars are U.S. dollar-denominated deposits made at our offshore branch in the Cayman Islands.
Fed Funds Sweep: Available only to Financial Institution customers, the Fed Funds Sweep transfers your excess funds—over the peg balance—out of an Analysis Checking account and into a Fed Funds Sweep account.
We understand that you want to use your account balances for more than payables and receivables. When you concentrate your funds daily, you can improve your cash forecasting and move funds where they can best be leveraged.
Our specialized zero-balance account offerings can help you efficiently consolidate funds from multiple accounts into a single master account. At the end of each business day, excess balances in sub-accounts are automatically transferred to your master account. We can help efficiently manage multiple accounts and hierarchies with these account offerings:
Demand Deposit Account (DDA): With interest and non-interest-bearing options, this transaction account helps you receive deposits or disburse funds. Funds kept in a DDA can earn credits to help offset overall account service fees.
Zero Balance Account (ZBA): This automated service links multiple deposit sub-accounts to a single “master” operating account—for timely, cost-efficient deposit consolidation into a single concentration account.
Corporate One Account (COA): This account works like a ZBA, with the addition of providing clients with the ability to receive location reporting for all transactions, adjustments and returns. This reporting is presented in BAI format. COA allows you to have a checking account at each location, and still keep funds centralized by sweeping them into a master account. You can see all debits and credits posted to each location.
These funds management options enable you to:
Easily and automatically move funds among multiple accounts.
Obtain a detailed audit trail of all transactions to expedite account reconciliation.
Help mitigate idle balances.
Use earnings credit to offset transaction fees.
Control daily treasury needs.
Access accurate daily cash position information.
