referrals + translation??

Hi everybody!

I need help with the word referrals in the following sentence:

Bank of America continued to leverage its global franchise and increase the number of referrals.

It could be:

Bank of America continuó potenciando su franquicia mundial y aumentando el número de remisiones... But I dont think remisiones is the correct one...any suggestion?

Thanks a lot!

Hey there!

I hope this can help you

Bank of America continuó aprovechando su franquicia mundial y aumentando sus referencias.

I think that this sentence is talking about Bank of America who continued expanding itself worldwide and by doing that, expanded its experience, know-how, curriculum, referrals, etc, right?

Have a nice day!
