Treasury Foreign Currency Deposit Account

Make transactions in foreign currencies and save on conversion fees.

Why choose a Foreign Currency Deposit Account?

Whether you make regular or occasional foreign currency transfers for your business, seek to hold foreign currency in an account, or preserve and grow your foreign currency capital, you may wish to ask us about our Treasury Foreign Currency Deposit Accounts.

Key features

  • Deposit money in the currency of your choosing (see list below)
  • Transact in that currency, or convert to AUD or another listed currency when you need to
  • Minimum deposit of the equivalent of $25,000 AUD for foreign currency fixed term deposit. This can be made up of multiple currencies 
  • Transactions can only be made by electronic transfer – foreign cash/notes or cheques can’t be deposited or withdrawn
  • Funds at-call or lock away in a foreign currency fixed term deposit to potentially earn higher interest rates

Access your account through our Treasury Representatives

Our Treasury Representatives can help you with making your transactions through electronic transfer.

Foreign Currency At-call Deposit

You can transact on any business day 

Please make sure that you’re aware of the Close Off times for deposits or withdrawals, as these vary depending on the time zone/country in question. Your Treasury Representative can advise you of these.

Foreign Currency Fixed Term Deposit 

Generally, you can’t access your funds until the end of the agreed term. If you need to break your term, we may be able to negotiate a solution with you, depending on your circumstances.
