Most major currencies such as Sterling, Euros and U.S. Dollars can be received the same day (where Bank cut-off times allow). For other currencies it can take up to 48 hours. RAQAM uses priority payments for all transfers, which is the fastest and safest type of bank to bank transfer.
RAQAM accepts funds by bank transfer. A bank transfer can be made online via your own online banking system or by visiting any branch of your bank. Clients with phone banking will also be able to use this to instruct a transfer.
These are the two main types of deals that are available in the foreign exchange market. Spot is a foreign exchange trade with the settlement time of two business days. A forward is similar to spot, but the settlement date can be set up to six months forward. This allows you to guarantee today's exchange rate on payments you need to make or receive in the future. We can offer two types of forward currency exchange contracts.
Settlement date or a value date is when your foreign exchange trade is available for delivery / completion. RAQAM requires to be in receipt of any sold currency before the settlement/value date.
