GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

International Org/Dev/Coop / Management report
English term or phrase: wires
Source text:

General principles and funding purposes

• All wires are subject to the availability of restricted, loosely restricted and/or unrestricted cash held by [company's name]

• [Company's name] should not hold unrestricted cash equivalent to more than 2.5 months’ operating expenses, including contingency funds.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Considering the context should I translate it as "wire [transfers]" maybe? or "wires" meaning "telegramas/cables"?

In advance, thank you for your collaboration.

Transferencia Bancaria
Explanation:
In this context "Wires" (Wire Transfers) is an American generic term relating to electronic funds transfer from one bank to another. So for use in another language/culture, I would use "Transferencia Bancaria" to be totally clear it's about money.

transferencias


Explanation:
The wires are subject to the availability of cash so I think it refers to "wire transfers", which should be translated as "transferencias".
