When does the need for a spot trade arise?

If you run an import or export business that is affected by exchange rate fluctuations, the need for foreign currency can arise quickly. With a spot trade, you can address your currency requirements in your currency account, as soon as the need arises.

Exchange rate contracts for international transfers

If you need to transfer more than NOK 3 000 000 abroad, we can offer a foreign exchange contract for your payment order. With an exchange rate contract, you lock in the exchange rate for the international payment. Exchange rate contracts are binding and can only be entered into through consultation with a DNB Markets FX broker.
