Key benefits of forward contracts1

Take control of currency fluctuations

Give your business more certainty by locking in an exchange rate for up to two years2, so you know the exact cost of a foreign payable or receivable in your local currency.

Customize forward contracts to your business needs

Gain the flexibility to manage cash flow on your terms. Lock in an exchange rate, choose the forward contract duration, and decide whether to settle all at once at the maturity date or in portions over time3.

Focus on your business while we watch the market

Take advantage of our 24/5 automated market orders. Set your desired exchange rate, and we’ll lock it in if the market hits your target — day or night.

“I would recommend using a specialist dealing house such as Convera. When I think back, our business growth was very restricted by our bank’s policies on currency transactions, and I also can’t believe how much time I used to spend online watching currency movements to safeguard our profit margins.”

1 Our hedging products are derivative financial instruments which may expose you to risk should the underlying exposure you are hedging cease to exist. They may be suitable if you have a high level of understanding and accept the risks associated with derivative financial instruments that involve foreign exchange and related markets. If you are not confident about your understanding of derivative financial instruments, or foreign exchange and related markets, we strongly suggest you seek independent advice before making the decision to use these instruments.
