There are instances where financial activities require collaboration with other parties. For example, married couples seeking to consolidate their income or business professionals needing to oversee all financial reports for each business transaction. The BCA Joint Account can be a solution for these needs.
What is a Joint Account?
A joint account is an account owned by more than one individual, business entity, or a combination of both. All parties interested in opening a BCA Joint Account are required to sign the same form and adhere to all relevant provisions.
This service allows all account holders to make transfer transactions and balance inquiries using the same account. Moreover, this joint account can serve as a funding source for daily family expenses, such as bill payments, future savings, investment funds, or business requirements that typically involve multiple parties.
Types of Joint Accounts
BCA offers two types of Joint Accounts. Below is an overview of each type.
1. “And” Joint Account
Transactions for “And” Joint Accounts can be initiated by all parties associated with the account through BCA branches. However, each transaction needs unanimous approval from all parties involved.
2. “Or” Joint Account
