Bank account opening guide

The next step of incorporation is opening a corporate bank account. We suggest you choose from the following banks:

  • Bank of Nevada
  • Citibank
  • Bank of America
  • Chase
  • Wells Fargo
  • Radius Bank

Bank of Nevada

There are different guiding rules for each and every bank, and because the Nevada State Bank is a large regional bank as opposed to a multi or international bank, the Nevada State Bank’s rules tend to be very conservative. Unless a client establishes their business entity in the state of Nevada and currently resides in the state of Nevada as a legal resident, the bank will be unable to serve their financial needs.

We know that these guidelines seem like a niche and complicated task, however, bankers are very adept at performing this complex task. All bankers are trained to have a unique problem solving approach that will readily serve their client’s needs.
