In a sweep structure, what flexibility does the account holder have?

In a sweep structure, the account holder has the ability to retain a balance in the account that exceeds zero. This is critical as sweep accounts are designed to automatically move funds between a primary operating account and secondary interest-bearing accounts or investment vehicles. Account holders can specify a target balance for their operational needs. The flexibility lies in managing cash flow effectively; they can maintain a minimum balance while allowing excess funds to be swept into higher-yielding accounts, earning interest or returns. This balance allows businesses or individuals to optimize liquidity while ensuring that they have immediate funds available for other operational expenses.
