The Spot market is where currencies are bought and sold in the same value date using the live FX market.
Foreign Currency Finance (FCF) facility is a product developed for customers to enable them to take advantage of a loan in a foreign currency using LIBOR based interest rate:
The bank extends a credit facility to its exporters denominated in a foreign currency to facilitate the customer`s financing requirements.
An FCIF transaction extends a credit window to importers in foreign currency to meet their obligation to retire the Letter of Credit (LC) or an Import Contract as and when due.
A currency forward is hedging solution offered to our trade clients to hedge their foreign exchange exposure. It is a binding contract in the market that locks the exchange rate for the purchase or sale of a currency at a future date.
This is a financing option provided to exporters that are looking to fund their working capital requirements. The transaction is an advance or a loan against a customers export receivables. The export proceeds received against the discounted bill are used to settle the outstanding foreign bill.
Customers can place global orders for currencies against the US Dollar for a specific rate. Global Orders can be Good-till-Cancelled (GTC) and Stop-Loss. This facility is available on HBL Infinity®.
