Vostro Account: Account held by a foreign bank in a domestic bank is called vostro account. For example UBS of Switzerland opening an account in SBI in India, this is vostro account for SBI India.

Nostro Account: Account held by a particular domestic bank in a foreign bank is called Nostro account. Here in the above example given in Vostro account the same account is a Nostro account for UBS Switzerland, or if SBI India opens an account in UBS Switzerland then that account is a Nostro account for SBI India. Nostro accounts are usually in the currency of the foreign country. This allows for easy cash management because currency doesn't need to be converted.

Explain the working of nostro and vostro accounts for fund transfer with example?

International accounting procedures between Local banks and overseas banks often involve the use of nostro and vostro accounts. A nostro (means "ours" in Latin) account is an account maintained by a Local bank with a foreign bank that allows the Local bank to buy foreign currency. A vostro (means "yours" in Latin) account is an account maintained by an overseas bank with a Local bank that allows the overseas bank to purchase Local currency. The system of nostro and vostro accounts facilitates foreign exchange dealings and settlements and allows the settlement of currency transactions between the Country's (Local)Bank and foreign banks. Example : When X (Buyer) a trader in Base Country wants to purchase $5000 worth of goods by paying cash. Mr.X deposits the cash in his local bank in the country's currency for the corresponding amount ($5000) then a swift message is sent to the corresponding bank in the foreign country where the local bank holds a NOSTRO account requesting the bank to make the payment to Y (Seller) in his local currency i.e. US Dollars. Thus facilitating the trade between X & Y. IF Y wanted to buy something from X then the foreign bank would complete the deal using their VOSTRO account in X's country.


What does una nostro vostro esta mean in English?

Not a lot! It's four unconnected words. una = 'a' (feminine) nostro ('nuestro' in Spanish) = 'our(s)' (masculine) vostro ('vuestro' in Spanish) = 'your(s)' (informal, plural, masculine) esta = this (feminine), but if it has an accent over the 'a', it means 'is'.


What is a swift MT950?

MT950 is the electronic equivalent of your bank statement produced in SWIFT format. It has the opening balance, details of debits and credits and a closing balance. Is is sent by the bank who service the account to the account owner. The account owner will then check it against their own 'Nostro' account which is a reflection of the real account. If you are asking about the MT950 then you are interested in a bank formatted statement which is checked against the Nostro hence the need for applications to do Nostro Reconciliation. The Nostro is somewhat like your cheque book in that it records what you think you have in your account, the real account (Vostro) balance as shown on the statement is compared. So if you have just written a cheque out it will be noted in your chequebook and you'll have accomodated that in your balance estimatation, but your real account won't reflect it until the cheque is presented.
