SERVICEESTABLISHED

Founded in 2006, Monex Europe is a foreign exchange company providing currency exchange services to corporate and private clients globally.

Based in the City of London, we provide same day, spot and forward foreign exchange contracts to a client base of FTSE-listed companies, financial institutions, SMEs, government agencies and non-profit organisations.

Our clients come to us because we provide them with more competitive pricing structures than those available from existing banking relationships and other service providers.

PROACTIVE

Our business is built on service, personal relationships and deep expertise.

Our specialist FX dealers serve fewer clients than their bank equivalents, meaning we provide a proactive and personal service that larger institutions cannot match.

We put time and effort into understanding your business, its needs and how FX exposure affects you. We are also highly effective at communicating relevant market moves and keeping you apprised of macro and micro-economic factors that may precipitate volatility.

As well as being your eyes and ears in the market, we offer 24-hour access to over 75 tradable currencies. Limit orders allow you to capitalise on inevitable overnight volatility, helping you to execute trades whenever you need.

COMPETITIVE

We are highly competitive and will work harder than anyone else to make your transactions work.

We operate principal to principal, sitting between you and a pool of liquidity providers including prime brokers, market makers and banks.

Making foreign exchange and international payments worth $125bn a year enables us to deliver the best deal for you, every time.

UNCOMPLICATED

We understand the pressures on your time, so we make working with us as simple as possible.

You only ever need to speak to one person. A dedicated dealer is assigned to you, responsible for executing your transactions and informing you of relevant market conditions and economic factors.

No call centres, no call management systems, no customer service agents – you receive your dedicated dealer’s direct line, email and mobile number. Your dealer is available to you whenever you need.

Your dealer will be an experienced market professional with extensive training who will arrange for same day, spot or forward delivery, simply with your verbal authorisation. Currency is delivered by bank transfer, cost free, back to you or to third parties internationally.

8

SERVICEFLEXIBLE

Our personal service means we can operate flexibly and adapt to meet your needs.

For clients looking to mitigate future risk, our forward contracts offer guaranteed rates of exchange for up to two years. You can draw down from these contracts at any point and, at expiry, they can be rolled forward until delivery.

Authorise transactions by phone or email and you will receive email confirmations at every step of the process from placing a market order to trade execution, receipt and payment of funds.

INTELLIGENT

We employ the brightest analysts and arerepeatedly listed in Bloomberg’s and FX Week’stop global currency forecasters.

As well as our morning reports, you will have access to a respected team of analysts who can provide you with general market sentiment, previews of major economic events and bespoke information directly relevant to you and your business.

Our analysts are regularly featured across major news outlets including City AM, the Financial Times, Bloomberg, Reuters and other specialist media. We frequently appear live from our in-house TV studio on channels including Bloomberg, CNBC, Sky News, Fox News and CNN, giving our expert insight on the economic stories of the day.

Because we do not speculate on the markets, our research and commentary has no institutional bias.
