• Cash poolingCash pooling is a group treasury technique that concentrates or offsets the balances of many group accounts, so that surpluses fund deficits and external borrowing falls. In physical pooling (zero or target balancing) money is swept to a header account; in notional pooling balances are combined for interest only. Tax rules treat pool positions as intragroup loans.
• In-house bankAn in-house bank is a group treasury entity that acts as a bank for the group's subsidiaries: it keeps internal accounts for them, nets and settles intercompany flows, lends and borrows internally and makes external payments on their behalf. It concentrates liquidity and foreign exchange risk and reduces the number of external bank accounts.
