Start with the need

When this requirement comes up

Use an FX brief to describe recurring currency needs across receipts and obligations. For a single defined conversion, the exchange brief focuses on the amount and settlement destination.

Business need

Receipts and costs in different currencies

A company receives customer revenue in one currency while supplier or operating costs fall in another. Mapping amounts and dates shows where conversions may be needed.

Private client need

Recurring personal currency needs

An individual receives income in one currency and has regular expenses in another. An outline of expected inflows and outflows helps frame a provider discussion.

Illustrative needs, not customer case studies or confirmation of availability.

Before you enquire

Prepare your initial brief

A clear outline is enough to start. Estimates are useful where amounts or dates are not yet fixed.

Incoming and outgoing currencies
Separate expected receipts from obligations and note which amounts are fixed and which are estimates.
Frequency and timing
Describe the usual pattern, upcoming payment dates and whether receipts arrive before or after the related expenses.
Existing settlement arrangements
Outline where funds start and need to end, including whether the accounts are in your or your company’s name.
Operational priorities
Explain whether the main need is a defined destination amount, clearer costs, payment coordination or more useful transaction records.
Keep sensitive records out of the first enquiry.

Do not include identity documents, account numbers or supporting financial records in the initial enquiry. If documents are requested later, confirm an appropriate secure submission method with the provider.

Before you proceed

Questions for the provider

Use the provider’s written terms to confirm the details relevant to your request.

  1. How is each conversion priced and approved?

    Confirm the rate, fees, quote validity and instruction process for each transaction. Do not assume a standing or automatic instruction.

  2. What happens if the amount or timing changes?

    Ask when updated instructions or a new quote are required and what cancellation conditions apply.

  3. Can funds remain after conversion?

    Confirm whether a balance or account arrangement is available, who provides it and what terms and charges apply.

  4. What records and support are provided?

    Ask about confirmations, statements, settlement status and the provider contact for discrepancies.

Clear responsibilities

From brief to provider decision

  1. 01

    You

    Map the expected currency flows and decide whether each proposed transaction meets your needs. Keep the provider informed when requirements change.

  2. 02

    Fiducia Clearing

    Organises the flow and timing brief for provider review. This is not investment advice, a hedge recommendation or an execution instruction.

  3. 03

    The independent provider

    Determines eligibility and any available arrangement, and confirms pricing, execution, settlement and record-keeping terms for approved activity.

Before an introduction

Questions about scope and responsibility.

Can I hold funds after converting?

Only if an approved provider arrangement includes the relevant balance or account capability.

Can private clients enquire about this service?

Yes. Eligible private clients can discuss personal currency needs. The provider reviews identity, source of funds, intended use and settlement arrangements; an enquiry is not investment advice or an execution instruction.

How is pricing shown?

Pricing and execution terms are confirmed by the responsible provider before an approved transaction.

Can I set a target rate?

No target-rate or rate-alert feature is represented as currently available.

Your next step
