Sending money to United Kingdom can be an expensive business, more so if you aren’t even aware of all the hidden fees. Money transfer companies and banks profit by charging you fees and a normally hidden margin on the exchange rate.

Using your Bank to make international wire transfers to India can be especially expensive – often 5% to 10% worse than using a foreign exchange specialist to send to United Kingdom bank accounts or pay a Pound Sterling invoice.

 

Scotiabank at a glance

Scotiabank is a Canadian multinational bank and a leading financial institution in North and South America. The bank offers a wide range of financial products and services to individuals, businesses, and institutions, including banking, investment, and insurance services.

One of the financial products offered by Scotiabank is wire transfers. Wire transfers are a secure and fast way to transfer funds between banks in different countries. With Scotiabank wire transfers, you can send money to over 100 countries in a variety of currencies.

When you get a quote for your Wire Transfer from Scotiabank on their website or in-app, you can also see the Scotiabank exchange rate, but it can be difficult to then calculate how much markup from the market rate you are being charged.

Our research shows that on average, Scotiabank profit margin for foreign exchange rates is somewhere between 3 - 8%, depending on the amount you're sending, where you're sending it to and which currency will be received.

While all banks in Canada charge this markup, the extra amount being charged is much higher than it would be with a global money transfer specialist.

How is the expat life in the UK?

Expat life in the UK can be a positive experience, as the country is known for its rich history, culture, and diverse society. It also offers a high standard of living and a strong economy. However, as with any move to a new country, there can be challenges to overcome.

One of the biggest challenges for expats in the UK is the weather, as it can be unpredictable and quite damp, especially in the winter. Additionally, the cost of living in the UK, particularly in the larger cities such as London, can be high.
