How do outgoing wire transfers work from a numbered account if my name is hidden?

When you send a wire from a numbered account, Prominence Bank uses an intermediary client trust account to execute the transfer. This means on the recipient’s end, the payment will show as coming from a Prominence Bank client trust (with a reference number), rather than your personal name . This arrangement complies with international wire requirements (the bank’s name and an account reference are included for transparency), while still keeping your identity confidential to outside parties. Internally, the bank of course logs that you were the initiator of the transfer, but externally your privacy is preserved. The process for you as a user is the same as a normal transfer – you initiate the wire in online banking – and there is no extra hassle, just added anonymity.
