Maximize your company's excess funds with First National Bank Sweep Services. Sweeping funds between accounts eliminates the need for manual transfers, saving administrative time and expenses. Business sweeps are designed to sweep funds between a primary account and subsidiary account(s). In most cases, subsidiary accounts serve an operating purpose, while the sweep destination account (or primary account) is more permanent holding of funds. First National Bank offers two types of sweep arrangements.

Who uses this service?
-
Example 1: A business with multiple retail locations that make deposits every day. A deposit sweep arrangement would automatically move the deposited funds to the aggregating destination account.
-
Example 2: Businesses that keep little cash in operating accounts and/or prefer to automatically move funds to and from an operating line of credit. When cash flow is reduced, the line of credit is used to boost funds available to the business. When cash flow improves, the line of credit balance is paid down using the excess funds in the deposit account.
