Barclays Wealth provides a specialist service that offers you tailored foreign exchange solutions. Your Treasury Manager works closely with your Relationship Manager to deliver a superior service that’s specifically tailored to your company’s needs.
We also give you the option to access the global markets directly and deal FX using BARX Commercial, our fast, convenient and easy-to-use online service.

Unlike a normal forward exchange, in which you can only complete the deal on the day the contract expires, an option dated forward contract gives you the flexibility to deal over a period of up to three months before maturity, giving you the potential to reduce your exchange risk even more.
