Best FX brokers

In simple terms, the role of the forex broker is to give advice and assistance to currency traders. The forex currency market is a worldwide market that operates round-the-clock, and such a vast market is replete with pitfalls for the novice and experienced forex trader alike. Using a forex brokerage will allow the trader to do business on the currency market 24-hours a day, and the broker will also advise on the price of leading currencies around the world at any given time. Of course, in the end, whether the forex trader has success or failure with a specific trade is down to his or her own skill and decision-making, but the help and advice of a competent forex broker is always highly desirable. The Money Saving Expert also gives some great advice on foreign currency transfers

How to find the best Foreign Exchange companies

Lets face it using an FX company to transfer large amounts of money abroad is not an everyday activity and for most of us, we will not know where to begin. That is why great customer support is a must when choosing a Forex broker. Even if you think you know everything that is to know with trading and with the platform you use, you never know when you are going to need help. A customer staff that can be reached at any time and provides assistance on a very short notice can make a huge difference in your trading experience. Remember to choose a broker that you’re comfortable with. This doesn’t necessarily have to have all the bells and whistles offered by others.

Never use companies that don’t require you to provide any identification documents. These are required by law and this could suggest the company is not a registered Money Services Business. You can check the register of money service businesses at HM Revenue and Customs.

Avoid companies that are offering a rate the same as the interbank market rate or above it. This would mean the company is not making money or is losing money on your transaction. Although this might seem like a good thing, it may mean the broker is speculating to make a profit or it could mean it is making losses which might threaten their solvency.
Only deal with brokers who operate client segregated accounts, that way you’ll know that your money is safe. It will be able to confirm who its bankers are.

The cheapest is not necessarily listed first because other services relevant to your transaction can be as important as price. These include, how long the broker has been in business, how suited they are at dealing with the amount you’re sending, whether they have people available at the destination to deal with your transaction and overall ratings from previous customers. It’s up to use to choose the best one for you. The results are ordered randomly.

Some questions to ask to find the best FX brokers

  • Can the broker offer other services?
  • How long does it take for money to arrive once I send it?
  • Once you have registered, booked the trade and sent your funds, it should take between one and two days for popular currencies and three days or more for exotic ones.
  • Can I transfer money online or do I need to phone?
  • Do they have an online service with 24hr access, where you can track your transfer and view all transactions.
