I have spent sixteen years in currency, twelve of those in the City, and I started Lucid because the industry needed someone doing it properly. Most FX firms exist to hit revenue targets. They ring you when the market wobbles, tell you the sky is falling and push you into a trade that suits them. That is not what we do.

Lucid is built like a professional services firm, closer to your accountant or solicitor than a broker. We are not the cheapest and we do not pretend to be. What you get is a named person who picks up the phone, clear thinking on what your exposure actually is, and execution that does not fall over when the deal gets tight.

Our average transaction is around £1.2 million, but the same care goes into every one. I work with business owners with overseas suppliers or customers, and private clients buying property abroad, relocating or moving wealth between countries.

If you or your clients are moving money across borders and you would rather it was one less thing to worry about, come and have a chat. Happy to talk it through with no obligation, and equally happy to tell you if you do not need me.

Foreign exchange and international payments for businesses and private clients. Currency risk strategy, forward contracts and hedging, same day payments in any tradable currency, property purchases abroad, relocation and emigration transfers, and ongoing one to one guidance on how the market actually works.
