Municipal Banking
Public funds are some of the stickiest, lowest-cost deposits a bank can hold, and the hardest to service. Hudson runs the virtual account setup, payments, signatory controls, and reconciliation behind every municipal relationship, so you can take on more with less risk and headcount.
The stickiest deposits in your area code
Win the next municipal RFP without rebuilding the public-funds workflow from scratch.
All municipal funds, tracked and accounted for
A single municipal client means dozens or hundreds of separate projects each with approval chains, spending restrictions, and reporting requirements. Hudson handles everything from creation to disbursement.
Account 01
Day-to-day operations. Tax receipts in, payroll & vendor payments out. Collateralized to state public-funds policy.
Account 02
Bond payment reserves accumulated from millage. Released only on scheduled debt-service dates, per the bond covenant.
Account 03
Proceeds spent only on projects named in the documents. Yield-restricted, arbitrage-tracked per IRC §148.
Account 04
Water, sewer, utility and other self-sustaining funds run like a business. Rate revenue in, operating & capital out.
Account 05
Tax collected on behalf of other entities. Special revenue restricted by source. Pass-through, scheduled remittance.
Onboarding done in days, not months
Every fund, covenant, and control configured quickly to launch a new municipal relationship before the next council meeting.
Managing the client accounts
Hudson is the layer between the municipality's treasury systems and their master account at the bank. Money flows in from taxpayers, utilities, grants, and other external sources. Hudson applies rules and workflows to automatically route proceeds to appropriate destinations.
