FAQs
Where does Treasi get its exchange rates?
From the Bank of Canada’s published daily exchange rates, updated each business day.
Does Treasi forecast exchange rates?
No. Treasi reports what rates did and what that means for payments, but doesn’t predict where they’re heading.
How can I protect a payment from currency moves?
A forward contract locks a rate for a future payment, and a limit order converts automatically when a target rate is reached. Compare hedging providers on Treasi’s FX page.
