Managing foreign exchange exposure and mitigating the risk of fluctuations in the currency markets is a must for any business that trades or has assets overseas.
If your business exports or imports, has assets or operations in another country or simply sends and receives money internationally you need to consider how you will protect yourself against changes in foreign exchange rates & other foreign exchange risks. A small variation in the rate could cost your business thousands of pounds.
Currencies Direct forward contracts enable you to:
We understand how a movement in foreign exchange rate can have a significant impact on your profit margin or balance sheet valuations. Our years of experience help to protect your bottom line and asset base. We offer a range of forex products and currency transfer services that can help to minimise your foreign exchange risk.
One way to hedge against exchange rate movements is to arrange a forward contract. This is an agreement initiated by you to buy or sell a specific amount of foreign currency at a certain rate, on or before a certain date. By fixing the exchange rate, you protect your business from eroding profit margins and negative impacts on the amount of money you expected to receive following a foreign exchange transaction. Quite simply, it allows you to guarantee today's exchange rates on payments you need to make or receive in the future.
At Currencies Direct we offer two types of forward currency exchange contracts.
Open Forward Contracts - you can take delivery of your foreign currency between a range of dates.
Fixed Forward Contracts - you take delivery of your forward currency on a specific date in the future.
