Potential payment solutions include:

    .

Once the most effective solutions are decided upon, the Bridge Bank Implementation Team will execute the plan and then train your employees, ensuring that the solutions run smoothly and effectively. Since the payment environment is evolving rapidly, your Treasury Management Advisor will meet with you periodically to determine if new innovations can deliver an even more effective solution.

Yield Solutions
Be bold, venture wisely. It’s a phrase spoken often at Bridge Bank, and it’s particularly relevant when it comes to Yield Solutions. You’re looking for tools that provide the best yield for excess corporate cash. Yet we’re well aware that simply looking for the highest yield isn’t necessarily the wisest solution.

At Bridge Bank, your Treasury Management Advisor will provide you with a comprehensive plan to maximize yield while balancing your objectives for safety and liquidity. Among the tools we use to do that are:
  • Bridge Bank Money Market Account
  • Multi-tier sweep accounting
  • Money market funds
  • Bridge Bank Certificates of Deposits
  • Investment services for excess cash*
  • Cash management portfolio reporting
Because business and economic environments are dynamic, periodic reviews are critical to maintaining effective and appropriate investment solutions. After implementing an initial excess cash strategy, your Treasury Management Advisor will meet with you periodically to make appropriate adjustments.

*Nondeposit investment products are not insured by the FDIC, are not obligations of, or guaranteed by Bridge Bank or Western Alliance Bank; and will subject the purchaser to investment risk, including possible loss of the principal amount invested.
