Your dedicated Relationship Manager will guide you through the strategic placement of all solutions and any associated risks, to maximize your revenue potential and minimize unforeseen losses from market fluctuations.
Forward Contracts
Forward Contracts allow you to buy or sell currency at today’s exchange rate and settle in the future, freeing up cash for other purposes. This solution reduces potential market fluctuations while also permitting you to take advantage of favorable exchange rates without having to pay until the currency is needed. Forward Contracts may be suitable if you know you have an upcoming requirement.
Spot Trades
A Spot Trade is an immediate, simple exchange of one currency for another with settlement usually done within two working days of execution. Spot Trades eliminate any risk from volatile markets swings, while giving you up to two days to make payment.
Take Profit Orders
Take Profit Orders permit you to set a specific exchange rate that is better than the current spot market. Once the rate you’ve set is reached, the order will automatically buy/sell at the rate chosen. Take Profit Orders allow you to reduce costs and improve profitability.
Stop Loss Orders
Stop Loss Orders, as suggested by their name, help limit your potential losses by setting a “Worst Case” lowest exchange rate at which you are prepared to buy/sell your currency.
This solution when combined with a Take Profit Order, is known as an “OCO” (One Cancels Other), allowing you to maximize upside potential while eliminating downside risk beyond your lowest (worst case) exchange rate.
