The Association for Financial Professionals selected Informa to provide their members with commercial services bank price data.
We collect and analyze the competitive data you need by surveying treasury management products offered by banks and financial service providers in the United States. Products surveyed include analyzed checking, account reconciliation services, retail and wholesale lockbox, information reporting, sweeps, controlled disbursement, ACH, and imaging services. We can conduct our research posing as companies of various sizes, from small business (under 10MM in annual sales) to large corporate (over $250 MM in annual sales). We provide benchmark pricing for all banks. We can even provide “exception pricing” shops at your request and we include financial institution names in our report.
We acquire the information you need in this area by surveying international trade services of US-based financial services providers. We identify and document the services used by a corporation when performing transactions related to import or export of goods and services. The products included in this research area are import, export, and standby letters of credit, outgoing collections, and miscellaneous fees.
Business Web Banking is a growing area of importance and our research team collects the information you need. Our studies detail product feature information in addition to online product pricing. These reports can be used to supplement our domestic cash management research, or can be purchased independently for those who are just interested in online product options for commercial clients.
New to the corporate cards market, or perhaps you just want to know what the competition is doing? We provide research on corporate purchasing cards and stored value cards. Our detailed research on corporate purchasing cards captures applicable charges, card program features, and online tracking capabilities. Our stored value card report includes payroll card details, ongoing and one-time charges for employees as well as the employer, and promotional offers.
We gather the program details and provide pricing information on credit card processing services offered by banks and third party providers. This report includes equipment options and charges; one-time, annual, and monthly maintenance fees, as well as discount rates and transaction costs for bank and non-bank cards. This report also includes online reporting and transaction processing capabilities, as well as any promotional offers available.
We survey a wide variety of investment sweep vehicles including repurchase agreement, commercial paper, Eurodollar, and money market mutual funds. We cover all tiers and yields, fee structure, as well as the basic information such as minimum opening balance, target balance, and investment increment. We also provide information on FDIC insured sweeps options. Additionally, we can research information on credit/loan sweeps as well as combined (investment/credit) options. Commercial, small business, and personal sweep reports are available
We survey a wide variety of earnings credit rate programs. We track the gross and net rate, index, FDIC insurance, all available tiers, and the special breaks for small business/middle market. We even research ECR for corporate cash management clients and correspondent banking clients.
Whatever your research needs, we can provide a custom program, staffed by certified treasury professionals, that delivers in-depth and relevant studies into the commercial services you need to know about.
