Corporate Banking works closely together with the Treasury Unit based in the City of London. Examples of some of the products available from our Treasury Unit, are Interest Rate Swaps, Interest Rate Caps and Interest Rate Collars. Interest Rate Swaps An Interest-Rate Swap (IRS) is the most widely used way of managing interest rates on longer-term loans. An Interest-Rate Swap allows you to swap your floating interest rate to a fixed-interest cost for the period, with the bank taking the responsibility of paying the floating rate on the loan.
