The Problem
A named USD account is useful where the business needs its own identifiable account details rather than a generic pooled account. This can simplify collections, reconciliation, supplier payments, treasury, and institutional settlement.
For Argentina-connected businesses, the issue is rarely the account number alone. Providers evaluate the complete flow of funds: who sends the money, where it originates, who owns it, why it is being moved, which payment rails are required, where it goes next, and whether the activity involves the company's own money or third-party funds.
That is why our approach starts with the transaction rather than with a random account application.
How We Can Help
Depending on the profile and provider approval, we can help assess and source a structure that may include:
- account naming in the business’s legal name where supported
- USD holding capability
- domestic and international incoming payments
- outbound wires
- SWIFT where available
- ACH or Fedwire depending on the provider
- investment and supplier payments
The objective is to identify the smallest workable structure that supports the actual business requirement.

What Providers Will Usually Want to Understand
Before onboarding, expect questions around:
- company ownership and UBOs;
- business activity;
- source of funds;
- source country and sending institution;
- destination country and beneficiary;
- currencies;
- expected monthly volume;
- number of transactions;
- average and maximum ticket size;
- whether third-party funds are involved;
- whether crypto or stablecoins are involved;
- payment rails required;
- major counterparties;
- and the commercial or investment purpose of the transaction.
A complex transaction is not necessarily unbankable. An unexplained transaction is much harder to place.
What We Need From You
Send us the company profile, required currencies and payment rails, incoming and outgoing countries, monthly volumes, transaction counts, average and maximum ticket sizes, major counterparties, whether funds are corporate or third-party, whether crypto is involved, and the specific banking problem you are trying to solve.
If you already have a flow-of-funds diagram, send it. If not, describe the transaction in plain English and we can convert it into one.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does 'named account' mean?
It means the account is identified in the company’s legal name, subject to the provider’s account model.
Is a named account the same as an FBO account?
No. A named corporate account generally holds the company’s own funds, while an FBO or pooled structure may be used for multiple underlying users.
Can it include SWIFT?
Some providers offer SWIFT-enabled named accounts; others provide local USD rails only.
