Currency
In Association With
Whether you are buying a property abroad for investment, retirement or holidays
at some point during the buying process you will almost certainly have to exchange
large sums of money into a foreign currency. Many people automatically turn to their
bank for this foreign exchange not realising that alternatives are available. However,
poor exchange rates, high transfer fees and commission charges all eat away at your
money and mean that using your bank could cost you dearly. However, by using a foreign
exchange specialist you can get more of your money time after time.
As an alternative to your bank, a foreign exchange specialist is able to offer you
extremely competitive exchange rates, no commission charges and lower transfer fees.
This can mean considerable savings on your transfer when compared to using a bank.
In addition a foreign exchange specialist will talk you through every step of the
currency buying process making sure that you are kept informed of any changes in
the market that may affect you.
Due to the volatility of the currency market exchange rates are constantly changing
and vary from one day to the next. However, there are various options available
to help you get a great rate. Buying options include spot deals, forward contracts
and limit orders, many of which are usually not available to private individuals
through a bank.
Spot Deal – If you need to transfer money quickly, this option
will give you the best rate available right now and guarantee it.
Forward Option – If you’ve got a purchase date agreed
or payments due on given dates, you can fix a rate for up to 2 years. This allows
you to protect yourself against any movements in the market.
Limit Order – This is used when you want to achieve a rate
that is currently not available. You set the rate that you want and the market is
then monitored. As soon as that rate is achieved the currency is purchased for you.
Regular Transfers – Whether for mortgage payments, maintenance
expenditure or transferring pensions or salaries, a regular transfer plan can offer
you commercial exchange rates, no commission charges and free transfers.
