Our team of experienced dealers can help your business manage risks associated with fluctuating exchange rates. We will gain an understanding of your business operations to assess the level of risk that your business is exposed to. We will then put together a tailor made solution using a number of tools such as Fixed Forward Contracts, Open Forward Contracts and Market Information.

Fixed Forward Contracts

If you know that you have to make or receive a payment on a specific date then a fixed forward contract will help you plan your budget. With this contract you specify the day that you will buy or sell the currency that you require. You will also pay on the same day, therefore, you will know exactly how much it will cost you.

Open Forward Contracts

If you know that you have several invoices in a particular currency to pay over a period of time, then an Open Forward Contract can help your business be more flexible. Provided that you pay for the currency in full by the agreed cut off date you can use the currency whenever you need during the agreed timescale.

Market Information


The RationalFX team deal in markets all over the world. If you want jargon free and up-to-the-minute information on a particular market, then your assigned dealer can help you by using a wide range of reputable sources such as Reuters and Bloomberg to provide you with exactly what you need.
