Know What You Pay and Get What You Should
Bank billing is complex. Statements are dense. Terminology varies by bank — and fees quietly drift upward, often unnoticed until the annual review (if there is one). By then, the cost of inaction is real, and the banks are counting on this. Since 1999, Redbridge has been building a bank fee database spanning hundreds of clients and thousands of banking relationships, drawn from real engagements, and continuously refreshed every month. Redbridge’s recommendation to our clients is grounded in that data. When Redbridge benchmarks your fees, it’s not an estimate: it’s the market.
Audit and Benchmarking
Every fee mapped, every service reviewed. Redbridge benchmarks your pricing against real peer data — and steers you toward the service setup that truly matches your needs.
Negotiation Support
Redbridge leads discussions with your banks toward pricing agreements grounded in market reality.
Ongoing Monitoring
HawkeyeBSB validates and tracks every charge every month. Nothing slips. Savings hold. Banks can no longer rely on fees being automatically debited without the same level of oversight as other invoices.

Proprietary Database
Built from over 1,000 client engagements across 100+ countries, Redbridge’s proprietary bank fee database covers even the most complex and remote markets. It is refreshed each and every month.
Peer Comparison
Redbridge positions your fees precisely against peers of comparable size, industry, and banking complexity with deep granularity at the service level. What feels standard is often above market.
Rate Change Context
Fee creep is real. Bank pricing can change rapidly. Without formal agreements, little prevents it. Redbridge identifies what reflects market conditions from what does not, and advises accordingly.

Structured Bank Discussions
Redbridge provides all the data and knowhow needed to lead every bank discussion, whether RFP or bilateral, armed with custom-built Bank Discussion Documents, pricing cases, and service service-line definitions built at the service-line level. You retain full control over the approach.
Minimal Internal Effort
Only a few months of account analysis statements are needed to get started. Redbridge handles everything else, and most clients invest fewer than a few hours from start to finish.
Lasting Structure
Negotiated terms only hold if they are properly documented and monitored. Redbridge ensures the agreements you reach with your banks stay in place long after the engagement ends.
