Nordea Intercompany Payment
The Nordea Intercompany Payment is a cross-border payment between companies belonging to the same group and holding accounts with Nordea. The payment is unique as it enables you to move funds in Nordea currencies between your own accounts across borders with same day value. Funds in Nordea currencies are transferred with same day value if the payment order is received by the account-holding Nordea unit not later than at 15.30 CET. Benefits include improved liquidity management, fund transfers without loss of value days, convenient delivery times and funds available on the same business day.
Nordea Payment
The Nordea Payment is a fast cross-border payment between two companies holding accounts with Nordea. The Nordea Payment is unique as it enables you to transfer funds in Nordea currencies and make them available to the beneficiary's account the next business day, that is two, three or even more days earlier than an ordinary cross-border payment. You can make transfers with or without currency conversion. In order to secure correct value dating the local reporting time for making the Nordea payment should be observed. Benefits of Nordea Payment include improved liquidity management, funds are available on the next business day and fast payment for the price of an ordinary payment.
Request for Transfer
Request for Transfer is an instruction sent via the electronic banking system of the domestic bank to debit an account held with another bank. The request may include payment instructions, such as Intercompany payments, third party domestic or cross-border payments.

Cover control routines
For Denmark, Norway and Sweden financial payments will be rejected after cut-off, latest at the end of the day. Ordinary payments may be rolled for three days (executing day + 2 days). This does not apply for Finland where all payments with insufficient cover will be rejected until the next banking day. It is at the Customer Responsible Unit's full discretion to reject a payment earlier than the above stated.
Banking/national holidays
The following will apply if your payment is received on a banking/national holiday or after cut-off time.
Denmark: If we receive a MT101, where the cut-off time has been exceeded or on a banking/national holiday, the payment instruction will be rejected and a new one will have to be made. If a MT101 is received with an execution day in the future, the payment instruction will be stored until execution day and then processed.
Finland: If we receive a MT101 on a banking/national holiday, the payment instruction will be executed on the following banking day with that day’s value.
