Foreign Exchange Spots and Forwards
Whether you need to change money to support payments or purchases in a foreign currency (e.g. a house overseas), want to reduce the risk of adverse price movements of non-sterling investments (e.g. rental income from a holiday home) or are looking to buy and sell currencies for profit, you may want to consider foreign exchange transactions.
