Verto has introduced US-dollar business accounts for companies that are doing business between the United States and Africa.
The accounts are designed to offer a more stable way to receive, hold and move funds. This is particularly beneficial for companies operating across multiple jurisdictions.
“This responds to a clear gap in the market,” said Ola Oyetayo, CEO of Verto. “We are seeing businesses that are properly registered and investment-backed struggle to maintain banking relationships simply because they operate across borders, including in African markets.”
Verto says its new accounts are tailored for US-based firms with African operations, startups expanding across markets and companies involved in trade and digital services.
By combining US-dollar account access with its existing cross-border payments infrastructure, Verto aims to provide a more predictable and efficient way for businesses to manage international transactions.
“Reliable access to banking is fundamental to trade and growth,” added Oyetayo. “When businesses can move money with certainty, it strengthens not just individual companies, but the wider markets they operate in.”
