If you're thinking or are in the process of joining the expat community, it's likely that the last thing on your mind is foreign exchange. However, getting the best foreign money exchange rate and making the most for your money is crucial to your new life overseas. If you're living or working abroad, foreign exchange and money transfer is a key part in making to most out of your money.
Living overseas, and transferring foreign currency to meet your living expenses, mortgage repayments, and other expenditure is costly, especially when banks charge you for all transfers. High fees and poor exchange rates that erode the value of your transfer can be avoided.
The service can be used either for one off transfers:
- Buying or selling property abroad
- Repatriating funds
- Emigrating
- Importing a car
...etc
Or for a regular transfer plan:
- Overseas mortgages
- Pension transfers
- Living expenses
- Any regular outgoing in a foreign currency
...etc
For example, a typical regular monthly transfer of £800 to Euros with no fees, no commission and great rates compared to a typical high street bank can save you about €500 over 1 year.
