Background
A leading financial services company for three decades
Chequepoint was founded in England in 1974 where it pioneered the
stand-alone bureau de change business. This initial success in London
enabled the concept to be expanded into other key tourist destinations
such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris, New York, Hong Kong, Prague and
Madrid.
Chequepoint and its associates now operate in over 50 countries and
offer a wide range of both financial and tourist services including
foreign currency, money transfer, cheque cashing, and travel tours.
The company has more than 100 wholly owned branches worldwide and
access to many other branch networks through correspondent banking
relationships.
In today’s travel related market-place, the Chequepoint brand
has achieved significant global recognition. This success has been
built on the company’s commitment to providing customers with
value, consistency of service and reliability.
Our high reputation in the field of currency exchange is demonstrated
by the fact that we have a branch in the United Nations Building in
New York, the only currency exchange house to enjoy this privilege.
Developing New Products and New Markets
Chequepoint has been a pioneer in anticipating and opening branches
in countries of growing tourist demand. For example, we were one of
the first companies into the Czech Republic in the 1990’s and
have 40 branches there, including prestigious locations at Prague
Castle.
As a company, we are making a substantial investment in the future of
currency related services. Shortly to be available are the ‘Virtual
Bureau’, our inter-active website and a currency pre-order
system.
Prioritising Customer Service
Chequepoint’s corporate structure ensures a constant focus on
our customers and the ability to respond flexibly to their needs. Our
corporate philosophy is ‘operate globally but act locally’;
Customer satisfaction and customer service are central to everything
we do. Our charges for currency exchange are competitive, customers
can be sure they will get a fair deal.
Our aim is to ensure there is maximum transparency around each
transaction and that charges to customers are clearly explained.
Commitment to anti-money laundering
The company puts a high priority on regulatory compliance.
Chequepoint has secured all necessary licences in all jurisdictions to
enable it to carry out the financial service business it offers.
All staff are well trained on anti-money laundering procedures. The
company’s internal compliance and anti-money laundering handbook
is available on request.
