Canadian brahs, is HSBC the best for Business banking?

I use RBC Express, which let's you send wire transfers from anywhere in any domination. You just need to make sure you're carrying a physical security token that randomly generates numbers; which must be input as a second security check when issuing a wire transfer. It's great for the added security, but if you forget to carry that while travelling, you're pretty much screwed. Other than that I think it's exactly what you're looking for.

Are there any other banks in the USA that let you set up an account for a Canadian corp? I've had a few occasions where it could have really saved me time to have an account at a US bank for my corp.

It does not need to be a Corp account. I closed my Corp account that was set up 10 years ago at BOA because of all the regulation changes. I now just use a personal account... there is no difference, just treat it like a corp account and run all you business through it, your accountant will not care what name is on the account as long as it is set aside for business use.

Just about any USA bank will let you set up an account, just avoid the smaller ones as they have a bad habit of going broke, and you dont want that
 
I have been using HSBC for my business since 2010.

I hate their customer support so bad... a bunch of incompetents that barely speak English. (and I'm talking about business suport)... I also hate the fact that you have to use that little red device to login, because that shit always breaks, then you have to wait a week to get a new one sent to you. Ridiculous.

Yes it's cool that you can do everything online, but I'm pretty sure other banks offer this... do your research.

Do you recommend BOA? Is it easy to transfer the money to my Canadian accounts?
