How to better manage currency deposits

Managing foreign currencies shouldn’t be complicated or expensive. Traditionally though, it’s been an area of hidden costs and slow solutions.

Many businesses take the “easy” route of processing everything through their domestic current account, taking the hit of charges and poor exchange rates with every receipt or payment. That can be expensive and, worse, sometimes you don’t even see the full cost tucked into all those individual transactions.

Others operate several foreign currency bank accounts, one for every currency they trade in. That quickly gets complicated, unwieldy and expensive.
