Risk Is Back on the Agenda

A sudden surge in coronavirus cases in America, Europe and UK is threating the precarious balance achieved on the last months. For those thinking of buying in a different country and with a different currency this situation is really difficult.

The increasing travel bans and quarantines imposed are making viewing trips a real challenge.

This situation is also affecting the exchange rates, creating a real threat for the budgets and making planning and forecasting really difficult.

It is time to be cautious and try to protect your transaction, but what can you do to make sure the volatility of the exchange rate and the general uncertainty of the market don’t jeopardise your purchase?

If you haven’t done so yet, you should get in touch with a foreign exchange specialist like moneycorp. Opening an account with them is really easy and free of cost or obligation. Once registered you would have access to a variety of tools to help you plan the best way to exchange your funds for your purchase. Some of the benefits include:

Currency updates– with moneycorp you can sign up to receive daily updates on the rates and even rate alerts to make sure you don’t miss any opportunity.

Watch order- They will monitor the markets for you and notify you of any relevant fluctuations to your transaction.

Market order- An automatic purchase of currency if a specified rate is hit in the market – so you never miss a beat.

Forward contract- This allows you to fix a rate of exchange in advance of a payment –up to 2 years. This tool is very popular among property buyers as allows them to fix the whole price of the property ahead of completion giving them the peace of mind and the certainty of how much they are going to pay for the property. But it is also a great way to take advantage of a positive rate movement.
