The rates that appear on many internet sites and Teletext are “mid rates” or “interbank rates”. These rates only apply to amounts over £5,000,000. They are an indicative rate halfway between the buy rate and the sell rate and no-one can trade at these rates. Worldwide Currencies will quote you an exchange rate closer to these mid rates than any other company. If there is a exchange rate you are trying to achieve, we will watch the market for clients and can transact or call you if the rate is reached. You can see indicative exchange rates on our currency converter though please note these are the “interbank” rates for amounts over £5,000,000 so smaller amounts will get slightly lower rates.
The time a transfer of funds takes varies and depends on a number of factors. For major currencies transfers can take place the same day, upon receipt of your funds before 12pm. For other currencies it can take 1-3 working days. Issues that our clients should be aware of are, Bank holidays or religious holidays in other countries, for example; in some Muslim countries banks are not open on Fridays. Also, Bank Holidays in some countries can affectively create a “non trading day” on the international currency market.
There are several factors that influence the foreign currency market. Some of these can be expected or foreseen; however none of them can be absolutely predicted. At Worldwide Currencies, our currency teams draw on their many years of experience in order to manage and account for the factors that affect the currency markets. These factors include; Economic Interest Rate Policy, Interest Rate Yield (“Carry Trades”), Economic Performance, Equity Markets, Political, Internal/External unrest, Commodity Prices, Inflation and political hedge Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A´s), Inward/Outward Investment Central Bank Intervention/ Reserve Diversification Intervention to support a currency, The selling of currency reserves, Unforeseen Factors, Terrorism, Natural Disasters.
