How can lawyers refer clients for currency services?

Your clients often need to move money across borders alongside the legal work: funding a foreign entity, paying for property, covering tuition and living costs after a relocation, or settling an estate. You introduce them to FinXtra for the currency side, we deliver it, and you stay on the legal work. FinXtra gives no legal advice.

Every cross-border file has a currency question attached

Funding a foreign entity, paying for property, covering tuition after a relocation or settling an estate all mean moving money across borders. It is rarely the lawyer's job, so clients often handle it alone, and expensively.

Costs buried in the bank rate
Banks often build their margin into the exchange rate instead of showing it as a fee, so clients rarely see what a transfer really cost.
Slow, unclear transfers
International bank transfers can be slow and opaque, which is a poor fit for a deal or a move with a deadline.
The rate moves while the file moves
Between instructions and closing, the exchange rate can shift and change what the client actually pays.

Which clients to introduce

Corporate clients
Companies funding foreign subsidiaries, paying international suppliers or managing multi-currency exposure.
Immigration and relocation clients
People moving abroad who need to transfer savings, pay for housing and tuition, or move a pension.
Estate and family clients
Heirs and families sending or receiving inheritance and family support across borders.
