TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - August 03, 2016) - As the world's economic landscape continues to evolve, the importance of international markets to small to medium-sized businesses increases, and with that, so does the importance of currency planning. FIRMA Foreign Exchange Ltd. (Firma), a highly specialized currency and payments solutions provider to small businesses, can help small businesses plan ahead and stay ahead.
With the recent EDC Trade Confidence Index Survey: Spring 2016 showing 54 per cent of business owners planning to export to new markets over the next two years and 95 per cent of business owners believing export sales will increase by the end of the year, if small-business owners are not yet thinking about how best to handle global payments, it's time they start.
"We believe business across borders can be less complex," said Dave Dominy, Firma Chief Executive Officer. "By considering the value of hedging currency, small business owners can reduce risk and be able to focus on growing their business. That's where we come in."
Firma specialists take the stress out of juggling the global currency market -- from monitoring foreign exchange trends to handling international payments. Specialists simplify the process, taking the onus off the client so they can focus on what matters -- building and growing a successful business.
"Small business owners have so much on their plate," continued Dominy. "I know; I was one of them. Firma specialists are passionate about small businesses, and the company understands what it takes to make them succeed. The Firma team works tirelessly to ensure that they understand what their clients' individual currency needs are, and how they can help them compete on a global stage."
