Incorporating the Commonwealth Bank's Accelerator Cash Account (ACA) and Term Deposit products, the Cash Management Service acts as a convenient, fully-featured cash hub for advisers and their clients.

Developed specifically with investors and Self-Managed Super Funds in mind and administered by Core Equity Services, the flexible ACA helps maximise investment opportunities while the Term Deposit helps to lock in market-competitive returns.

With the ability for advisers to view client balances and transactions through their software package 1 and transact on the client's behalf 2, it's easy to see why the Cash Management Services are a natural choice for advisers looking to manage and administer their client's cash flow simply and efficiently.

The ACA and Term Deposit can operate in unison for an effective cash flow management solution, or as a standalone account depending on the client's needs.
