Anyone making currency transfers can be at the mercy of the latest currency fluctuation, which can leave you with a big shortfall regarding the amount of currency you may have expected to receive. This is particularly the case with big overseas transactions such as buying a property abroad, although the same applies to smaller regular transactions also.
Here are 5 tips to help you avoid losses:
1. Don’t use a bank
2. Discuss your currency needs well in advance of any transfer
3. Use a forward contract to fix the price of your currency exchange
4. Use a company where their traders are not paid on commission
5. Use a company where their currency specialists will provide expert knowledge regarding currency markets
These simple tips can make a massive difference to any currency exchange you are considering making. Call Smart Currency today on +44 020 7898 0541 to find out more and how we can help you. Smart Currency will also send you a copy of their guide “A currency specialist’s guide to buying overseas property” explaining these tips above in detail.
