3 surprising ways banks help businesses

If you’re a business owner, maintaining positive cash flow and protecting confidential information might be things that keep you up at night.

Turns out, your bank can help you rest easy in ways that may surprise you. Here are three examples:

1. Simplify payroll – most banks offer direct deposit services so you can stop writing paper checks.

2. Detect fraud – ask your bank about security features related to activities like wire transfers and mobile/online banking.

3. Accelerate cash flow – a solid business banker will make recommendations to overcome your cash flow challenges. Be sure to choose a consultative banker.
