The correspondent banking fees set out above are indicative only. No reliance should be placed on these fees in determining the total cost for sending an international payment. These fees may change at any time without notice and are subject to a number of factors including the value of the international payment made and whether the payment is sent in the local currency of the destination country. At your request, ANZ will use best endeavours to obtain, within ten working days, details of the fees you were charged by the correspondent and/or intermediary bank that was used to send your payment. ANZ recommends that you read your relevant account terms and conditions and the International Money Transfer Terms and Conditions (where you use Internet Banking, Internet Banking for Business or Phone Banking).

 

If your company makes foreign currency payments of $100,000 p.a. (AUD equivalent) and over and you would like to manage your Foreign Exchange Risk, we can set you up with ANZ FX Online and a dedicated foreign exchange dealer. Please contact ANZ Markets on 1800 640 574 in Australia (Monday to Friday 8.00am-8.00pm AEST).
