Bringing funds back to the UK

If you want to bring foreign currency back into the UK in sterling - perhaps after selling an overseas property - it's well worth doing it through us. Our years of experience and specialist market knowledge will ensure that you get the best available exchange rate, so that you receive as much sterling as possible back in the UK.

We can also help if you want to change money from one foreign currency to another.

Once you have opened your free, no-obligation account with us, you will be able to discuss your circumstances and needs with your personal account manager. This is important, because some countries have different procedures to others. As market-leading professionals, we are familiar with the subtleties of the various systems and will ensure that everything proceeds smoothly and securely, and there are no rate problems that result in funds getting 'lost in transaction'.


  • No hidden fees
  • No commission
  • No transfer charges*

We're here to help you

Getting the timing right is important, so as part of our bespoke service, your dedicated account manager will liaise closely with you and keep an eye on the foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Our daily market report provides useful insights - all in plain English with no jargon, - to help you decide on the best time to transfer your funds.

If you have any questions about any aspect of foreign currency transactions, you may find the answer in our FAQ's, but if not, don't hesitate to phone or email us with your query. We want you to be confident about every aspect of dealing with us, so you'll find detailed information about our professional pedigree and our friendly team on the About us page.
