Foreign Currency
|
| Currency Conversion |
Foreign exchange charges will be incured on all foreign securities transactions
that require funds to be converted to or from NZ dollars.
For the purposes of conversion into or from one currency to another, the exchange
rate used is a midpoint rate plus a currency conversion margin of an amount up to
0.89% of the overseas currency amount.
The midpoint rate is derived from wholesale buy and sell rates quoted by foreign
exchange market participants and which are compiled by a supplier of financial
market data.
The exchange rate or rates for a particular transaction will be those applicable
at the time at which and on the date at which the contract note for the trade is
generated. The exchange rate displayed here is an indication of the midpoint only
and is refreshed from time to time throughout the day.
