Correspondent accounts are established through bilateral agreements between the two banks.Commonly, correspondent accounts are the accounts of foreign banks that require the ability to pay and receive the domestic currency. The accounts allow them to pay others from the account or receive money from others into the account. This allows the bank to offer various services to their customers such as foreign exchange and foreign currency denominated loans and deposits, despite their not having a bank licence for the foreign country in that country's currency.Such accounts are necessary for international trade that requires people and businesses to pay for things in a currency other than their own. It is impractical to transport large amounts of currency around the world and physically exchange domestic currency for the currency that a customer/supplier demands. Instead, money is taken out of an account at a local bank (which is in local currency) and an equivalent amount of money is put in the customer's or supplier's account at their local bank (in a foreign currency). The money from the buyer's account goes to an internal account of your bank. The money to the customer or supplier comes from an account the buyer's local bank holds with a bank in the supplier's country—the buyer's bank's correspondent account, at their correspondent bank."@en }
