Whether you want to ring us, request a callback or chat online with our experts rest assured that no matter how you get in touch, you'll always get the best adviceAs a limited company director, one of your responsibilities is to open a business bank account. Because the wages you earn through your company must be separate from your personal account, your company is classed as a separate entity and is responsible for its own finances.
Finding a bank to suit your WorkStyle is a challenge faced by many contractors and it can be hard to know where to turn for the best advice. But ClearSky are here to help in your search for a business bank account.
Choosing the right contractor bank account
Choosing a bank which understands your needs is crucial, so it is important that you are as well-informed as possible when you make your decision. There are a number of high street banks who offer competitive packages on business accounts, but these banks generally do not understand the nature of contracting. It is also not advised to use the same bank for both your business and personal accounts.
You should look for a bank which specialises in business accounts and is experienced in managing the finances of freelancers. This business will have a greater understanding about the unique way limited company contractors work and can provide help and support for your unique financial needs.
