# Problem
I've been following the Brazilain support channel in Telegram and a recurring issue is people who have their fiat accounts mismatch the other side of trades which makes the "same bank transaction" feature a bit useless and risky.

Example: 
As the field is an string with no validation, when creating a fiat account, `Brandesco`  can appear as `Banco Bradesco`, `Bco Bradesco` and so on. Traders don't really know what their counterpart wrote, so they stay in the dark and we fragment the liquidity between `Same Bank Transfer` and `National Bank Transfer`

I propose that we hardcode all banks and names into the application so traders can avoid this ambiguity and the market can work much easier.

# More details
The Brazilian bank transfer systems is called COMPE, and the central Bank provides a list of all members. It even includes non retail banks 
The list can be found [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tjdzFNQrsV54A9N5z-tcBtC1wNp2W6tlOTk0EGb6nP8/edit#gid=0)

If we could add columns C and D to the app, similar to how Japan's bank transfers have their info. The market would function in a much smoother way.
