Quite glad I had to cancel my holiday earlier this year. That little wad of Croatian Kuna I never got round to taking back to the bank will be worth a fortune.bloggoth

I am now insisting on payment from UK clients in hard currency. They don't seem too enthusiastic, only one client, *** UK has agreed - seems they have a lot of EUR. I am having to drop the UK clients as I cannot factor any GBP invoices to them invoices anymore due to DB's concerns on the future FX rates and the seasonal nature of my business.
Interestingly the Swiss seem very happy to be invoiced in EUR still as opposed to CHF. My Russian and Chinese clients will pay whatever it takes in whatever currency as long as it is handed over in an fat envelope.
I am only an SME with a 7 figure turnover & low 6 figure profit. I am really wondering what happens when the big boys start insisting on hard currency.Comment

Dollars or Euros only. Your Sterling is no good here.Comment

EUR is about 15% overvalued at the moment.
GBP unlikely to fall below USD parity.
USD is likely to strengthen into 2020.
GBP was already too strong, Brexit is doing us a favour.Comment
