routage bancaire
The English phrase "bank routing" is translated into French as routage bancaire.
routage bancaire refers to the process of directing a financial transaction to the correct bank account.
Did you know?
- The word banque and the English 'bank' both stem from the same Germanic word for a bench, referring to the tables where money changers sat.
- While routage bancaire describes the process, French banks use the term RIB, short for Relevé d'Identité Bancaire, as the actual document or set of numbers needed to route a payment.
- In France, the RIB contains a code guichet which specifies the exact branch office, meaning routing is more granular than the US system which often routes to a larger regional hub.
