Faxing to Cathay Bank — FAQ
It depends on the department. Where the document is sensitive, a secure upload in your account is often the faster and safer route. Match the document to the channel Cathay Bank wants, and it lands with the right desk the first time. The channel that works is whichever one the receiving department actually asks for.
No. Cathay Bank routes faxes to separate department lines, so the lending department and the wire transfer desk do not share a number. What you send to lending will not reach the wire transfer desk. Match the department to your document, then send to that specific line. Which line is right depends on the department, not the regional bank as a whole.
