Customers can transfer money overseas in a range of currencies, and the bank offers real-time exchange rate quotes and low transfer fees. HSBC also offers foreign currency accounts and multi-currency accounts, allowing customers to hold and manage multiple currencies in a single account.

When you get a quote for your Global Money Transfer from HSBC on their website or in-app, you can also see the HSBC exchange rate, but it can be difficult to then calculate how much you are being charged.
HSBC does not publish their exchange rates publicly which is frustrating. However, our research shows that on average, HSBC profit margin for foreign exchange rates is somewhere between 2.8 - 7%, depending on the amount you're sending, where you're sending it to and which currency will be received.
While all banks add this mark-up, the extra amount being charged is much higher than it would be with a global money transfer specialist.
