If your Business is involved in overseas trade and payments, cutting down on costs such as unnecessary currency conversion charges could help boost your profitability. A Foreign Currency Call Deposit, which is available in most major currencies, could be the answer.

How it works

A Foreign Currency Call Deposit saves you money on overseas trade and payments by eliminating the need to convert your foreign currency to Sterling. You simply lodge the foreign currency (minimum 10k in Euros, Dollars or equivalent £10k GBP in another currency) on deposit for the currency concerned. Deposits can be made via cheque, cash or international money transfer. Withdrawals can be made via drafts, cash (within limits) or outward payment order.
