Some Background on Currency Companies in South Africa
As with any industry you get good and back but luckily with currency companies there are some obvious rules to follow when making your selection.
- All currency companies have to be registered with the Financial Services Board. If they are not then do not deal with them.
- All currency companies operate via an authorised dealer – in our case Investec bank.
- Currency companies in South Africa do not handle the monies you wish to transfer or receive, they go via client accounts with the authorsied dealer, meaning you have an added security level.
- Pick a currency company with a proven auditable record. Look specifically for ISO 9001 and 27001. This shows the companies commitment to service and security; as well as giving you the knowledge you are dealing with a company that is audited and judged against international standards.
- Try and meet with them. Look at the obvious – size of operations, how they communicate with you and do they have a registered office.
