Expected Transaction Profile Template
The forecast a provider monitors you against. Estimate it honestly — the figures you give become the thresholds that trigger review.
Providers ask new corporate clients to forecast how the account will be used, then monitor real activity against that forecast. The profile is not a formality: figures that are materially wrong in either direction generate alerts, and an account behaving nothing like its stated profile can be reviewed or restricted at the least convenient moment.
Build it from the business rather than from optimism. Work out what a normal trading month looks like — not the launch month, and not the month in the funding deck. Where the business is genuinely seasonal or lumpy, say so in the narrative. A reviewer can accommodate variance that has been explained; unannounced variance is what gets escalated.
Keep the profile beside your business description and revise both together. When volumes change because the business changed, telling the provider before the pattern shifts is a routine update. Telling them afterwards is an investigation.
Figures to prepare
- 1Monthly incoming value and volumeWhat arrives in a normal trading month, and across how many separate payments.
- 2Monthly outgoing value and volumePayroll, suppliers, tax, and distributions, separated rather than pooled.
- 3Largest single expected transactionThe one most likely to trigger a review if it appears without warning.
- 4CurrenciesEvery currency you expect to receive or send, including any you convert through.
- 5Counterparty countriesWhere customers pay from and suppliers are paid to, not only where you are registered.
- 6Counterparty typesConsumers, businesses, platforms, or related parties within your own group.
- 7Payment channelsCard acquiring, bank transfers, payment platforms, direct debits, or marketplaces.
- 8Cash use, if anyDeclared up front; unexpected cash activity is treated as a significant deviation.
- 9Intra-group flowsLoans, recharges, and transfers between entities you also control.
