GETTING STARTED

A financial services firm helping individuals and companies move money across borders, specialising in currency exchange, international payments and treasury solutions.

Proof of identity, proof of address and, for companies, basic incorporation documents. Most clients complete the application in one sitting.

A streamlined KYC review with a real person typically approves individuals within a day and companies within a few working days.

No fixed minimum. The desk is built for meaningful transfers, but we price every trade on its merits.

PAYMENTS & SETTLEMENT

Major currency corridors typically settle the same day. Most other routes complete within 24 to 48 hours, and you can track every payment in real time.

More than 40 currencies across major, minor and selected exotic pairs, all executed and settled through one dealing desk.

We price from the live mid-market rate with a transparent margin agreed up front. No hidden spreads, no surprise fees on arrival.

Yes. Set up recurring transfers, forward schedules and rate alerts, and let the desk execute while you watch every step.

Yes. Hold balances in multiple currencies under international IBANs, and settle in and out as your business requires.

SECURITY & REGULATION

No. We are a specialist currency and payments firm. Client funds are held in segregated accounts with regulated banking partners, never on our own balance sheet.

Ward Capital London provides regulated payment and currency services and follows strict KYC and anti-money-laundering rules across every transaction.

Funds sit in segregated client accounts with regulated banking partners, protected end to end and reconciled daily.

Standard KYC and source-of-funds checks, handled by a named person rather than an automated queue. Most reviews clear the same day.

Still unanswered? The desk picks up.

No chatbots, no ticket queues. Ask a person who prices trades for a living.
