Welcome to Ethical Currency
Ethical Currency support and endorse the Robin Hood Tax Campaign!
Ethical Currency is a foreign exchange social enterprise. Anyone can use our
services - charities, NGOs, social enterprises, businesses and individuals
can access a direct and cost-saving alternative to their bank for currency transactions, whilst promoting a more positive, social business model for the financial services industry as a whole.
Uniquely amongst FX brokers we have created a sustainable funding stream for global causes, that include
poverty alleviation, health, education and environmental issues. This funding stream is built around our Ethical Currency Transaction Levy initiative.
In short, we save our clients money by offering an alternative to the large financial institutions that have previously
made huge profits at a human cost. If consumers choose to vote with their business, Ethical Currency can go on to prove that a structural change in
the global financial architecture is both warranted and possible. We won’t be able to do it alone but all change
begins somewhere. Read our Ethical Commitment for more information!

Charities, NGOs and Social Enterprises
If your third sector organization or company exchanges currencies and sends or accepts international
payments through your bank, you need Ethical Currency. Our better-than-bank exchange
rates and smart currency management tools help you protect donor funds and get more money to
where it is needed most. As specialists we can also help you to hedge your currency exposure and make
and receive international payments securely. At the same time we will also be creating
new money for global causes through our in-house Currency Transaction Levy intitiative. Just another way we are trying to help.
Private clients
There is an alternative to using your bank to convert currency and make international payments. We offer
better rates than most banks on currency exchange and we handle payments personally. We’ll help you control
your finances to get the best from the currency markets, whilst making a real difference.
Corporate clients
If your company exchanges currencies and sends or accepts international payments through your bank,
Ethical Currency can save you money and give you a new marketing opportunity. Apart from offering
better-than-bank exchange rates, secure international payment facilities and the option to hedge your
currency exposure, you can carry the Ethical Currency logo on all your marketing collateral. This will show
your customers and clients that your organisation is dedicated to improving the planet as you help create
new money for global causes.
