Foreign currency accounts

We offer foreign currency accounts in all major trading currencies including euro and the majority are interest-bearing. The accounts operate in the same way as sterling current accounts – you will receive regular statements and if required, a cheque book can be issued in the nominated currency of the account.

Our foreign currency accounts are easy to set up, convenient and could save you money if you regularly receive or make payments:

  • they remove conversion costs and reduce your exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations
  • competitive rates of interest are paid against most currencies
  • you can use customers’ money to pay suppliers (when trading in the same currency)
  • deposit surplus funds without the cost of converting them to sterling.
