Chamber Foreign Exchange is available to members of East Lancashire Chamber, as part of an exclusive deal negotiated by the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC).

Chamber Foreign Exchange is a package of products helping companies save money and reduce the risks surrounding foreign exchange transactions.

The service allows businesses to make and receive overseas payments and hedge currency risk; for example by fixing rates in advance to help deal with currency fluctuations.
In addition, businesses can benefit from competitive exchange rates, free online currency accounts, reduced transfer fees and fast, online transactions, as well as practical guidance and a foreign exchange health check of their FX requirements.

On average companies save around £3000 by using the Chamber’s FX services. Reserve your individual 60 minute consultation slot with our FX specialist to find out how you can do the same.
