Escrow solutions
Use our escrow solutions to manage the secure transition of funds for a range of corporate and private transactions.
Welcome
As an escrow agent, we understand that reducing global transaction risk is a top priority for businesses. When making financial transactions, either as a buyer or a seller, it’s important to ensure that funds are held securely.
We offer escrow solutions for individuals and institutional investors across different sectors, holding funds on behalf of two or more entities to be released as per an escrow agreement.
Mergers and acquisitions
We offer a range of escrow services to support M&A transactions globally, acting as an independent party.
Holdback escrows
Our holdback accounts mitigate transactional risk. Clients can place a portion of the purchase price left unpaid at the closing date in escrow.
Our third-party escrow account solution hold these funds securely until escrow agreement obligations are satisfied.
M&A Takeover Codes
Regulations sometimes vary between jurisdictions.
In the United Kingdom and Hong Kong, for example, Takeover Codes are regulatory frameworks that govern the procedures and rules involved in the acquisition or takeover of companies, ensuring transparency, fairness, and protection of the interests of shareholders and stakeholders involved in such transactions.
Good faith deposits
Our holdback accounts mitigate transactional risk. Clients can place a portion of the purchase price left unpaid at the closing date in escrow.
Our third-party escrow account solution hold these funds securely until escrow agreement obligations are satisfied.
Closing/paying agent
Clients can use our corporate escrow services to combine multiple funding sources that cover the total purchase price
before a deal closes. The escrow account has two solutions:
-
A closing agent to facilitate the exchange between the seller and the buyer.
-
A paying agent, where Interpolitan distributes funds to the selling shareholders directly from an escrow account.

Escrow for litigation
We offer corporate-level escrow solutions for class action lawsuits and settlement appeals.
Class action lawsuits
Interpolitan Money escrow accounts can be used as a qualified settlement fund to hold the settlement amount on behalf of defendants.
Account holders can distribute payments after a class action lawsuit in line with the agreed terms.
Judgement appeal
During an appeals process, the courts may ask the defendants to deposit some or all of the potential award into an escrow account.
Our escrow accounts can hold funds, giving plaintiffs and defendants the assurance that settlements will be available after the court ruling.
How
escrow
works
01
The buyer and seller agree to the terms of a transaction. You provide us with the details and terms of the agreement.
02
The buyer deposits their funds into the Interpolitan escrow account, safeguarded by our tier one banking partners.
03
The buyer confirms the agreed goods or services have been received, funds are transferred from the escrow account to the seller.
04
Funds reach the seller on time, eliminating chargeback or debt collection costs. Once the escrow account balance is cleared as per the agreed terms, the escrow agreement is terminated.
