Trade with Italy
Thanks to its special and longstanding relationship with Italy, Banque Palatine can provide you with the Links solution – a unique option for trade between France and Italy.
This innovative service enables you to manage all operations with your subsidiaries, clients, suppliers or employees by remote transmission just as easily as with your French partners.
Banque Palatine can help you open central accounts at Intesa Sanpaolo Bank in Turin in order to facilitate the collection and repatriation of your funds.
An internet link enables you to access information concerning the Italian account and also to control transfers and even to collect RIBA cash orders.
Opening an account abroad
Opening an account is often the best way of developing your business abroad.
For your convenience, in 2006 the savings banks set up a European Group (GECE) to facilitate the opening of accounts by small and medium business clients of member companies of the Group. This initiative gave rise to the creation of the World Savings Banks Institute (WSBI).
As a Banque Palatine client, you can take advantage of the expertise of your chargé d’affaires, who can facilitated your relationships within the member states.
