Currencycloud gains ASIC licence to operate in Australia

Currencycloud, the experts in simplifying business in a multi-currency world, have announced that they have been granted an Australian Financial Services (AFS) licence by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). The granting of the licence means that Currencycloud can now offer their full suite of services to Australian businesses.

The granting of the AFS licence follows the appointment of Nick Briscoe as Country Manager, Australia, in January of this year and gives Currencycloud the springboard to build the team and ramp up customer support in-country.

Currencycloud has some fast-growing clients in Australia but to date the services they have been able to use have been limited to international payments only. Now those clients will be able to provide customers with collections, management services and Currencycloud’s multi-currency ewallet: Currencycloud Spark, which allows clients’ customers to pay, collect and hold more than 30 currencies in one account.

Alex Prater, CEO for FX Corp, a Currencycloud client in Australia, commented: “With the expansion of Currencycloud’s offering, FX Corp has been able to augment the range of currency capabilities it provides to clients, particularly in minor and exotic currencies which have traditionally been problematic to deal in. Add to this a user-friendly interface and the ability to easily track cross-border payments, and Currencycloud offers a compelling value proposition which has assisted FX Corp to offer a more complete range of services to its growing client base.”

Nick Briscoe, Australian Country Manager at Currencycloud, said: “The fintech landscape here is incredibly vibrant and highly sophisticated in its approach to both clients, and service providers. Gaining our Australian licence puts us in a great position to support our existing Australian clients and their ambitions, as well as work with other businesses across the country.

Currencycloud is now actively recruiting for key hires across sales and operations.

                  The world’s preeminent Private Banks and Wealth Managers are demonstrating a committed drive in innovation, advisory, new products and services to meet the sophisticated needs of their clients.

                  COVID-19
                  Amid economic activity revival on the back of the Covid-19 vaccine program, organisations moving from business continuity plans to stable working environments, together with the slightest improvement in unemployment numbers, forced the world to adjust to new realities. Coming to terms with the “new normal”, global investors are now on the look-out for attractive and stable investment opportunities.

                  Needs of Private Wealth customers and families worldwide have drastically changed due to the pandemic and banks have had to accelerate efforts to deploy a multi-channel service strategy and safeguard clients’ businesses and wealth against negative impacts of economic uncertainly.

                  The Global Private Banking Innovation Awards will recognise the world’s best private banks, wealth managers and asset managers that are championing innovation across advisory, service, products, customer experience and more.
