A company that invoices in several currencies has to decide where each currency is received, held, converted and paid out. The decision is architectural: the flow comes first and the accounts follow from it.
Without a design, conversion happens by default wherever money lands, at whatever terms apply. With one, you decide which currencies you keep as balances, which you convert, and where. The assessment draws that map from your actual invoices and supplier bills.
Account opening is a separate service; this assessment designs the set-up and does not open accounts or promise any provider decision.
Idea: Keep each currency as a balance and pay costs from it; What you give up: More balances to monitor; idle funds in minor currencies
Idea: Move everything to one base currency promptly; What you give up: Conversion happens whether or not the timing suits you
Idea: Match inflows and outflows, convert only the difference; What you give up: Needs reliable forecasting and tight reconciliation
No pattern fits every case. Fit depends on volume, predictability and who reconciles.
Natural matching may cover part of the exposure; the rest is a conversion decision.
Settlement currencies per platform drive the design more than customer invoices.
One dominant currency. The issue is concentration, not variety.
Which customers pay in which currency, and what they would accept instead.
Suppliers, payroll, tax and platform fees, by currency.
Where incoming and outgoing amounts in one currency can offset each other without conversion.
What remains after matching, and whether you hold it or convert it.
Where conversion happens, and who sets the terms there.
This is business and structuring analysis, not legal, tax or investment advice. Where a legal or tax opinion is needed, we say so and point you to a licensed adviser.
