The difficulty of bank fee negotiation stems largely from a lack of transparency around pricing and the rapid movement of bank fee prices. To understand what is happening in the market and to negotiate favorable rates, you must have solid, up-to-date points of reference. The Feenix Guide to Bank Pricing was created by analyzing a huge data set of year-over-year corporate bank account analysis statements, providing extensive points of reference for understanding market trends and the range of fees charged. The data represents global, super-regional, regional, and smaller banks.
This session will explore key points in our data set and how to utilize the guide to clarify your account analysis pricing. Does it make sense for your company to get assistance or implement a system to track bank fees over time? This webinar is aimed at easing the headache of understanding bank fees.
