Rate Methodology

How your rate
is calculated.

Every exchange rate begins with the interbank rate, the mid-market benchmark that major banks use when trading with one another. This is the "real" exchange rate you see on financial data terminals and platforms like Reuters or Bloomberg.

High-street banks typically add a retail spread of 3–5% on top of this rate before passing it on to customers. That margin is largely invisible, built into the quoted rate rather than shown as a fee.

Aetas Global operates differently. We source rates directly through institutional liquidity channels, applying only a narrow, transparent margin. There are no additional transfer fees, our pricing is upfront, clear, and agreed before you commit.

01

Interbank Mid-Market Rate

We start from the live interbank rate, the same benchmark used between global financial institutions. This is the most accurate reflection of a currency's real-time value.

02

Institutional Liquidity Access

Through our banking and liquidity partnerships, we access wholesale FX pricing that is simply not available to retail customers through a standard bank or exchange bureau.

03

Our Transparent Margin

We add a small, clearly disclosed margin to the interbank rate. This is how we generate revenue, no hidden fees, no surprise charges at settlement.

04

Your Confirmed Rate

The rate we quote is the rate you get. Once confirmed, your rate is locked. Market movements after that point do not affect your transaction.
