Currency Deposit Account

A Currency Deposit Account with AIB Customer Treasury Services allows you to make and receive foreign currency payments in a particular currency without the need to convert the funds into euros. It can help protect you against adverse exchange rate movements, eliminate foreign exchange conversion costs and allow you to take advantage of the opportunity to earn interest on your surplus currency funds.  Depending on your requirements, you may choose from either a Currency Call Deposit Account on NSC 93-00-67 or a Currency Fixed Term Deposit on NSC 93-00-67.
