Treasury Flows — IBAN Settlement, Allocation, and Compliance Boundaries

Reference document for treasury settlement between IC CC (SPI) and BNK2 (VASP). Defines the bank-rail boundary, the off-bank allocation layer, and the patterns that must not be combined.

1. Treasury Flow — IBAN → IBAN Settlement

This is the only place where real money moves. It must be treated strictly as institutional funding.

Sender:   IC CC Ltd
Receiver: BNK2 Ltd
Purpose:  Treasury Funding

Key rules

  • Rail: SEPA / SWIFT only
  • Beneficiary: BNK2 (legal entity)
  • No FBO
  • No User references
  • Classified as treasury / prefunding

Controls required

  • KYB on BNK2
  • Sanctions screening
  • Safeguarding reconciliation
  • Contractual agreement

2. Internal Allocation Flow — Off-Bank

No real money moves here. This is purely ledger movement inside BNK2.

No bank rails. Responsibility: BNK2 = full control + compliance.

Key rules

  • Driven by API instruction
  • BNK2 responsible for AML / KYC
  • Allocation must match prefunded balance
  • Full audit trail required

3. End-to-End Flow — Full Stack

Complete lifecycle. Separation between bank layer and ledger layer is critical.

Critical boundary

▲ BANK LAYER   SEPA / SWIFT, regulated rails, KYB beneficiary
▼ LEDGER LAYER   API instructions, internal accounting, KYC on users

Do not mix the two. The bank-rail leg sees only legal entities. The ledger leg sees users.

4. Non-Compliant Patterns — Do Not Do

The following break compliance and trigger AML flags, layering suspicion, and audit failure.

Patterns that break compliance

  • Using FBO in a treasury transfer
  • Embedding user references in an IBAN payment
  • Treating an IBAN transfer as a user payout
  • Mixing the treasury and allocation layers
  • Not reconciling balances

What these trigger

  • AML AML flags
  • Risk Layering suspicion
  • Audit Audit failure
