Abstract

A transfer management system receives a request to transfer an amount of funds from a transferring account maintained by a transferring bank to a receiving account maintained by a receiving bank. The transfer management system determines whether the transferring bank maintains an intermediate transferring account, and whether the receiving bank maintains an intermediate receiving account. If the transferring bank maintains an intermediate transferring account and the receiving maintains an intermediate receiving account, the transfer management system transmits to a transferring bank system of the transferring bank an intra-bank transfer request. The intra-bank transfer request is to transfer the amount of funds from the transferring account to the intermediate transferring account. Additionally, the transfer management system transmits an intra-bank transfer request to a receiving bank system of the receiving bank to transfer the amount of funds from the intermediate receiving account maintained by the receiving bank to the receiving account.
