Make it easy on yourself. Call the experts
Confused about the different kinds of currency transactions available? We’re here to help. Our experts can guide you through the various types of transaction and help you pick a combination of services that are right for your business. Spot contracts A Spot contract is an agreement to buy or sell currency for immediate delivery at an agreed exchange rate.
Forward contracts Forward contracts enable you to fix an exchange rate to buy and sell currency for settlement on or before an agreed date up to 24 months in advance. It’s a ‘trade now, pay later’ type contract and, because the rate is fixed, it isn’t affected by currency movements between the date it was agreed and the date the contract is due to be settled. Currency can be delivered earlier or later than the agreed settlement date either in full or in multiple payments on different dates by drawing down from the initial lump sum.
There are two types of automated currency order:
Stop Loss orders A Stop Loss order is an automated order to buy or sell currency at a predetermined ‘worst case’ exchange rate, which if achieved, will automatically fulfil your instruction. It is used to protect bottom line profit margins and costing levels.
Limit orders A Limit order is an automated order to buy or sell currency at a predetermined ‘best case’ exchange rate, which if achieved, will automatically fulfil your instruction. It is used to enhance profit margins.
