Frequently asked questions
Yes. Your foreign currency accounts are deposit accounts of EverBank, N.A. that are insured by the FDIC up to standard limits. However, this does NOT mean that your principal is protected. Your funds will fluctuate in value relative to the U.S. dollar, and due to the nature and volatility of the foreign exchange market, the value may fluctuate widely. In the event EverBank, N.A. fails, the FDIC will insure you within standard limits based upon the value of your funds in U.S. dollars at an exchange rate determined by the FDIC.
The Customer Exchange Rate you receive from us will generally be within 1% of the available Wholesale Rate for your selected currency and will be determined at the time of the actual trade and not necessarily at the time of request, unless you request, and we agree, to lock-in your Customer Exchange Rate, which we may decline to do in our sole discretion. For more information on the Customer Exchange Rate, please see the Account Terms, Disclosures and Agreements Booklet or call the World Markets Trade Desk at 1.800.926.4922.
The exchange rates listed on our website are for research purposes only. Neither those rates nor any exchange rates published in any newspaper, website or other publicly available source accurately reflect the exchange rate that will be available to you through EverBank.
You may call our Trade Desk at 1-800-926-4922 to request a price to lock in your WorldCurrency account exchange rate. This service may not be available in all cases. Whenever possible, we will set an exchange rate at the time you call.
Note: The locked-in exchange rate you receive may be more or less favorable than what would have occurred with a non-locked exchange rate. Please see the Account Terms, Disclosures and Agreement Booklet for more information on the Lock-In Rate.
Yes. We offer traditional, Roth, Simple and SEP IRAs.
Yes, you can, including principal, due to currency price fluctuations. Foreign currency denominated instruments entail significant risk exposure to adverse movements of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar, so you should only deposit money that you can afford to risk and as part of a broadly diversified strategy.
