You can create one mother bank a/c in chart of accounts and the3 bank accounts as sub account this way1 ledger is good to reconcile, simple and clean.
Also, if the volume of payments is high i suggest to keep different ledgers from the point of view for clean audit.
Only one ledger is needed but you would use three journals. In todays world you would simply have three separate accounts in your chart of accounts.
You must keep 3 ledger accounts in the name of the 3 banks, then only you can easily reconcile it. I worked with a firm which have 6 bank accounts in Bahrain. I was keeping 6 ledger accounts.
