Yep. The bank has to require reconciliation of the accounts that are active in the FBO. Oddly enough, there is zero standardization in banking regulations and recon is an afterthought and rarely done. Doubly so if you are talking B2B.

Reconciliation costs a lot of money. They typically just watch the balance and and bark at the fintech for more money when it runs out. There are people at every bank calling partners every day demanding wires for overdrawn FBO accounts. Buyer beware.
