Correspondent accounts

3 accounts at other banks, as the bank publishes them: lbs.de ↗ dated 13 Oct 2025
| Currency | Correspondent | BIC | Account | Purpose | Directory check |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| — | Landesbank Baden-Württemberg Germany | SOLADEST600 | DE49 6005 0101 0001 3649 34 | Customer payments, Baden-Württemberg | Matches the Swift directory |

The legal notice lists three bank accounts in LBS Süd's name, one for each market region. They are customer payment accounts, not a formal SSI list. No currency is stated; the German IBANs suggest EUR. All 3 rows were extracted. The 2025 annual report says the main payment accounts are held at LBBW and BayernLB. No separate correspondent-bank or SSI page was found on lbs.de. Each correspondent BIC is checked against the Swift directory: a BIC missing from it, or registered to a differently named bank, may be a typo or out of date. Confirm settlement instructions with the bank before relying on them.

Sources & method
Every value comes from a public source, such as Swift’s ISO 9362 BIC directory, GLEIF or the OFAC and EU sanctions lists. Most sources are matched on a BIC or an LEI, not on a name.
Swift GPI membership is matched on names and is indicative. A missing sanctions match does not mean that no listing applies. Always screen against the official lists.
The sanctions facts on this page cover the BIC and its LEI only.
An institution is one entry in the directory: a BIC8 in Swift’s directory, or a firm on a tracked register that holds no BIC. Licences held by an institution with a BIC are shown on its page.
