The challenges of fluctuating exchange rates
Fluctuating exchange rates are a primary hurdle for SMEs making frequent international payments, as currency volatility can create uncertainty around costs and impact your cash flow. Unfortunately, banks often fail to adequately assist SMEs in mitigating these currency risks, and typically offer little to no strategic guidance on hedging or risk management. On top of this, banks won’t be upfront about the hefty exchange rate margins or “spread” fees they’re charging you, which is a percentage cost applied to every transaction by providing an unfavourable exchange rate on your currency conversion.
