Features and Benefits

How these accounts can help you.

Having a current account in a foreign currency can be very helpful if you need to:

  • Make a payment in a foreign currency at a specific time in the future.
  • Regularly send or receive payments in the same currency (that is not Euro). An example would be paying university fees in a different currency to your own. Or if your salary comes in a foreign currency.
  • Manage how the changes in the value of different currencies might affect your finances.
If used incorrectly you may be exposed to foreign currency risk. Consultation with our experienced Treasury Specialists or your Branch Relationship Manager is advisable to ensure that a currency account is suitable for your requirements. It is important that you fully understand the benefits and risks associated with foreign exchange.
