Corporate Foreign Exchange Transfers

World First works with a large number of companies worldwide to help them manage their international financial requirements efficiently and cost-effectively. In addition to this we are able to help companies budget more accurately through use of hedging strategies such as currency options.

Importing / paying overseas suppliers?

If you are paying overseas suppliers you will usually have to pay for the product in the currency of the country you are importing from. We can provide with the best available exchange rates, exceptional service and the fastest available international payments.

Exporting / receiving foreign currency?

If you are receiving funds from sales in other currencies you will have to convert the sale proceeds back to sterling (or your domestic currency). We will guarantee to give you unbeatable exchange rates, exceptional service and fast, efficient CHAPS payments.

Foreign exchange hedging strategies?

If you are a business that imports or exports, you may be exposed to significant risk due to constant fluctuations in exchange rates. Our hedging strategies help you to manage your foreign exchange risk by protecting you from adverse rate movements and enabling you to benefit from favourable rate movements.

Foreign exchange for overseas investments?

If you are investing overseas you will usually have to convert sterling (or your domestic currency) into the currency of the country where you are investing. We will convert sterling into that foreign currency at the best available exchange rate and make the international payment to the overseas bank account you nominate.

World First online payments system

Our simple, easy-to-use method of instructing international payments will save you time and improve the accuracy of your overseas transactions. The functionality allows you to store recipients and beneficiaries, download reports and has multiple access levels.
