What is Embedded Treasury Management (EMT)?
Embedded treasury management is the bundling of a high-yield checking/savings account and treasury money storage offered to a consumer or business from a non-financial provider. The product consists of the following:
- High-yield checking/savings account with excess FDIC protection through a partner bank network (in some cases as much as $50 million in FDIC insurance)
- A "spendable" Treasury Bill storage account that utilizes robo-advisory technology to automatically buy and sell T-Bills at a desired maturity and/or liquidate on demand for cash needs
- - No minimum balance requirement
- - Debit card access
The account functions similarly to a Brokerage Cash Management Account (diagram below).
