Smart Case Study #1

Sarah Jones emigrated to Australia in early 2006 to join the rest of her family that had moved there already, she was starting a new job within a couple of months so contacted AQS to help sell her 3 bed house in SE England before she left.

She wanted to have the cash in hand to buy a property straight away in Australia as property prices there had been rising continually for some time. Once the AQS representative spoke to Sarah about the property sale he mentioned that she should contact Smart Currency Exchange and ask for some guidance on the exchange rate.

The sterling to Australian dollar rate at the time had been getting worse from her perspective due to the strength of the economy and rising interest rates in Australia. With some guidance from Smart she decided to freeze the exchange rate for £200k with a 'forward contract' at the commercial rate of 2.50 dollars to the pound for the 2 months it would take to finalise the house sale etc.

During that time the exchange rate fell to 2.42 on the markets, meaning that had she waited until the point when she was actually leaving the country to exchange the money it would have given her $7500 dollars less -enough to make a big difference in her new life. Simply looking into the currency exchange issue early on in the moving abroad process is far better financially than leaving it to chance.

We're looking for new Introducers (like yourself) so that we can help you benefit your clients. Be one of our new case studies!!

Let this be you:

"John L. a property intermediary, called initially to get a great currency exchange rate when transferring his investors money overseas. A call was immediately put through to the currency trading floors to ensure that John received a better-than-bank rate. (In fact, he saved over £4,000 for his investors by using a Currency Exchange Service)! Needless to say, his investors were happy with the savings.

Thereafter, John mentioned that he owned another company that found properties in Spain. He explained that with this company his clients did the deal directly with the developer rather than going through him, hence we mentioned the option of becoming a 'Smart Introducer'.

After a quick chat, we were able to provide John with a solution that would allow him to add more value to his already successful operation. In return for promoting Smart Currency Exchange, his clients received exceptional benefits and John realised less hassle, increased exposure and some extra income through commissions."
