Opening an account in foreign currencies
Whether you are an importer or an exporter, you find yourself having to deal with transactions in foreign currencies on a daily basis. To facilitate your collections and payments you can have an account in our bank in the currency(ies) of your market(s).
Basic principles
Your account can be opened in all the major currencies (USD, GBP, CAD, CHF, JPY), but also in less common currencies such as the PLN, and NOK etc.
Accounts in foreign currencies allow you to keep the gains made on export sales, repay them while waiting for their future use and link exchange hedging to the account. This solution simplifies the processing of international transactions, whether you are an importer or an exporter.
Your needs
The foreign currency account is mainly aimed at businesses carrying out a significant number of operations in a particular currency. It allows you to collect your transaction flow in complete security and release your exchange hedging without difficulty.
Benefits
Your exchange management is made easy: you can back up your accounts in foreign currencies from exchange hedging solutions. You can thus optimise the frequency and master the cost of your exchange transactions.
Your flows are made easy: you can directly inform your commercial partners of the IBAN numbers of your accounts held in foreign currencies.
An advantage for your commercial partners: having a foreign currency account allows you to bill in your export client’s currency. By backing up your sale with exchange hedging you will reduce the risk of exchange losses and reduce costs, both on your part and that of your commercial partner.
