For example, exchange rate volatility will play a key role in your local currency transfer. It is not uncommon for currencies to fluctuate by as much as 10% over relatively short periods. A couple wishing to purchase a property in Florida for 200,000 dollars would have paid the sterling equivalent of £108,113 in January 2006. Four months later, they would have paid £112,720 for the same property. By securing an exchange rate in advance, they would have made a saving of over £4,500.
