Tired of pushy brokers?
With us, there are no fancy sales pitches, and we're not here to rush you into a transaction that you don't fully understand.
We’ll help you make informed decisions at every step
If you're transferring large sums of money abroad, you owe it to yourself to understand the transaction that you're making. Sounds obvious, right? But that's not the case with the vast majority of foreign exchange transactions happening right now.
FX should not feel murky or confusing. Yet clients are being left in the dark or, worse, pushed into a transaction they don't understand and aren't comfortable with.
Our client-first approach: an alternative to most FX providers
We’re not a faceless organisation dealing with thousands of customers every day. With us, you get direct 1:1 care and attention at every step.
We genuinely care about our clients. And we know that if we deliver exceptional outcomes, we will likely generate repeat business.
Our business grows because we treat people with integrity, not because we’re chasing revenue.
David Huggett
Lucid Financial Markets Founder
I’ve worked in the foreign exchange industry for 12+ years. I’ve seen first-hand just how murky this industry can seem and how stressful it can be to send large amounts of money around the world, especially without the proper guidance.
I realised that half the problem with the industry is that there is a huge over-focus on “getting the absolute best rate”.
This leads businesses and individuals to hold off or rush their transaction, without thinking about the fundamentals like “Where is my money going?” and “Will it definitely get there?”
That is the single most important thing about a large currency transaction – not the marginal gains you might create from shopping around.
So yes, I care about the rate you get, but our first and foremost priority is to make the experience as seamless as possible.
So I set out to create Lucid Financial Markets, which has a two distinct goals:
- Demystify currency markets, so you understand fully what’s happening and why,
and
- To give you the confidence that the transaction you’re making is the right one, so you don’t have to sit at a computer or on a currency exchange app staring into the abyss.
