Scenario
Mr Lim owns a property in the UK that is serviced by a loan in British Pounds (GBP), on a monthly basis. His current property loan interest is at 4%. |
His FX View
GBP could depreciate in the short to medium term. |
Our proposed FX solution: FX Order Watch
With Maxiyield, Mr Lim will potentially benefit from buying GBP at a lower exchange rate and at the same time, earning a yield which can be used to potentially offset the property loan interest he is paying. |
Scenario
Mr Tan travels to the US frequently for business and he likes to buy and hold US Dollars (USD) whenever the exchange rates are favourable. He realises that the USD is more volatile during US trading hours as most US economic data are released during US trading hours. |
His FX View
The US FX market will be volatile this week with major announcements to be made and he does not want to miss out on this opportunity. |
Our proposed FX solution: FX Order Watch
With FX Order Watch, Mr Tan can set a 'Buy' order at his desired USD/SGD exchange rate without having to monitor the markets 24 hours a day himself. The pre-determined funds he set aside will be converted to USD when his desired price is met. |
