[1] Correspondent Bank

International wire transfers often occur between banks that do not have an established financial relationship. When agreements are not in place between the bank sending a wire and the one receiving it, a correspondent bank must act as an intermediary. For example, a bank in San Francisco that has received instructions to wire funds to a bank in Japan cannot wire funds directly without a working relationship with the receiving bank.

[2] Correspondent Bank Fee

The correspondent bank charges fees for its service in the International wire transfers between your bank and beneficiary bank.

[3] Currency Conversion Fee

Fees apply for currency conversion of your payments in Foreign currency other than USD.
