They can operate without a master account
A master account is a Federal Reserve Bank account held by banks not individuals

Master account is important for any bank.
A Federal Reserve master account is a record of financial rights and obligations between a financial institution and the Federal Reserve Bank. It is identified by a Primary nine-digit Routing Transit Number (RTN) and is used to settle transactions, manage reserves, and access various financial services provided by the Federal Reserve[2][3].
