Why use a currency broker against your bank or post office?

If you are making either a one off large business transfer from one currency into another or if you are making regular smaller transfers to an Australian bank account then you might well want to consider using the services of a currency broker, rather than doing the transaction through your bank or post office.

A broker will be able to offer you benefits over and above most banks for your money exchange as they are specialised in this field. They will often be able to offer you better rates than your local bank or post office as they handle so many of these transactions and there are some brokers which do not charge commission fees.

By going through a broker for a large transaction, say for the purchase of a business, a small difference in exchange rate can mean a huge difference in monetary terms. You would always look for the best deal in other areas of life and currency exchange is no different, so comparing rates can mean huge savings.

Many brokers can also offer you a forward contract which means that you can fix the exchange rate of your transfer in advance. Exchange rates can fluctuate considerably and by fixing it in advance you know exactly how much you are going to pay up front.

This can be very useful if you are mid way through an Australian  property deal as you can plan the transfer in advance at a set rate.

Buying an overseas property?

The same can be said if your buying property overseas and are an Australian resident. With the strength of the Australian dollar against the Uk Pound, US Dollar and Euro now is the time to buy a get away holiday property overseas. You would need to buy Euros, Dollars or UK pounds using your Ausy Dollars from a broker in order to gain a much better rate of exchange to buy your luxury overseas property in Spain for example . A word of advise is to not use your bank as they charge a rate sometimes as much as $50 just to make the transfer and the rate they offer are around 6 cents less that the interbank rate. So with these tips under your belt , get out there and start looking for your dream home overseas. If you need a loan to make that overseas purchase in Spain for instance, its best you use a broker who will find you the  best mortgage rate for your financial circumstances. Gone are the days you could secure a mortgage by walking into a bank in the country your buying in. Many  banks in Spain will no long even speak to you and will point you to a broker for Spanish home loans rather than deal with your request in house. The reason for this is banks do not want the responsibility of any legal action made against them if legal action is ever taken for miss selling the loan. This leaves the brokers to ensure they do a good job in advising their clients on mortgages available to them without the hard sell and indeed any potential future legal problems, after all , they are in this for the long haul..
