Third Party Depository Services Amegy Bank offers our Correspondent Banking clients a third party depository service. This effectively expands a Correspondent Banking branch’s network without the capital outlay for branch construction. The Correspondent Bank’s client can easily deposit funds at any of our branches. Once the funds are collected (generally one to two days), they will be available to our Correspondent Banking client for credit to their clients’ accounts through our Zero Balance Services. The Zero Balance sub-accounts are for deposits only, and there are no debit or cash back transactions allowed.
Private Label Lockbox One of the most critical areas of Cash Management is the timely receipt and collection of funds. Amegy’s Private Label Lockbox continues to be the most widely used and effective tool available for accelerating the collection of receivables. Private Label Lockbox services allow incoming payments (including credit card payments) to bypass your client’s corporate office and come directly to the bank. This process results in reduced mail time, accelerated processing time, and a quicker collection of funds.
Amegy Bank offers wholesale lockbox (business to business payments) and retail lockbox (consumer to business payments) in both Houston and Dallas locations. We offer the flexibility to accommodate the special handling needs your clients may require.
Amegy has well-defined quality standards at every phase of the process: mail pick up and sorting times, deposit times, processing accuracy, and reporting times. Amegy offers your company the products, the technology, and the sophistication of the larger banks matched with the service responsiveness that only a smaller bank can ensure. It is the best of both worlds.
