See due-to and due-from balances across your firm structure, and settle multiple intercompany payables and receivables in a single flow.

Bring entity relationships to the forefront

Intercompany Balances replaces those disconnected spreadsheets with a unified, relationship-centric view. Instead of cross-referencing journals or bank statements, you can now see every net amount owed between your entities. Whether tracking reimbursements to the management company, fund-to-fund balances, or other cross-entity liabilities, you have centralized oversight.

Within each entity in Carta, you can instantly check outstanding balances across related entities in the firm, categorized as "Settled," "Ready to Settle," or "Pending Review."

Settle balances efficiently

Moving money shouldn't require a dozen individual transfer requests. As you review your firm’s outstanding intercompany balances, you can select any reconciled balances that are “Ready to Settle” and clear them in bulk, handling payments and the associated journal entries from multiple entities in a single workflow. And with Automated Money Movement enabled, you can manage the payments end-to-end in Carta without having to log into your bank portal.

An internal clearinghouse for your firm

Centralizing intercompany balances provides institutional-grade clarity over your firm-level finances. As firmwide spend accumulates through Expense Allocations and intercompany journals, you always have the latest balances at your fingertips. And by reducing the friction of internal transfers, you free your team to focus on analysis and strategic planning.
