I don't have much experience regarding that, it just seems that it would
be wise to have the account in the same country as that of incorporation
(so that would be France, no?).

Of course, the bank must be using PostgreSQL :)

A small tip: make sure that the treasurer is not the only person who can
access the account, that might lead to some inconvenient situations.

Best,
