B of A Clients Accelerate R T P® Use, Led by Liquidity Management
Corporate R T P Transaction Volume Increased forty eight percent, While Transactions Above one million dollars Rose three hundred fifty one percent
NEW YORK, New York and MIAMI, Florida – Bank of America’s corporate clients are proving that higher-value real-time payments are in demand by increasingly using the R T P® network to move money, support liquidity needs and execute business payments with greater speed, transparency and control.
The strongest growth is occurring at the higher end of the transaction range, where clients are using R T P to manage liquidity and move funds precisely when and where they are needed. The network’s twenty four seven availability allows treasury teams to reposition cash after hours or on weekends, fund accounts before the start of a business day and respond quickly to changing obligations.
“Clients are looking for greater flexibility in how and when they move money,” said Christian Stolcke, head of Global Financial Institutions and Governments in Global Payments Solutions. “The higher R T P transaction limit is opening up strategic use cases, including intercompany transfers and cash concentration, as companies move funds among subsidiaries during month- and quarter-end close.”
Use cases include internal sweeps that allow companies to concentrate cash, fund subsidiaries and adjust positions in real time instead of waiting for traditional processing windows, as well as supplier and affiliate payments, centralized disbursements and transfers between accounts at different financial institutions. This flexibility can help treasury teams improve liquidity visibility, support business continuity and place funds where they can be used most effectively.
In February 2025, the R T P network increased its individual transaction limit from one million dollars to ten million dollars, expanding the potential for higher-value corporate payments such as business-to-business payments, merchant settlement, supplier payments and intercompany liquidity management.
Bar graph titled “All Bank of America Corporate Transactions on the R T P Network.” The graph compares transaction volume for the first half of 2025 with the first half of 2026. The bar for the first half of 2026 is taller than the bar for the first half of 2025. Text above the bars states “forty eight percent Growth,” indicating that transaction volume increased by 48 percent between the two periods. The graph does not provide the underlying transaction totals.
Bank of America’s client activity reflects how corporates are using the higher limit in practice. From January through July, corporate R T P transaction volume increased forty eight percent compared with the same period in 2025, while the number of corporate transactions greater than one million dollars increased three hundred fifty one percent.
Bar graph titled “Bank of America Corporate Transactions Greater Than one million dollars on the R T P Network.” The graph compares transactions greater than one million dollars during the first half of 2025 with those during the first half of 2026. The bar for the first half of 2026 is substantially taller than the bar for the first half of 2025. Text above the bars states “three hundred fifty one percent Growth,” indicating that transactions greater than one million dollars increased by 351 percent between the two periods. The graph does not provide the underlying transaction totals.
“Corporate clients are increasingly looking to real-time payments for use cases that go beyond speed alone,” said A J McCray, head of Global Payments Product in G P S at Bank of America. “We’re seeing a shift in how companies think about payments, with clients using R T P to make treasury operations more precise, efficient and resilient.”
The momentum builds on Bank of America’s broader investment in real-time payments, including its June announcement regarding the launch of a cross-border real-time payments solution for corporate, commercial and financial institution clients.
