Leading International Foreign Exchange Company Helps Italian Businesses Worldwide

Rome (ots/PRNewswire) - Italian corporations are leveraging
international business transactions with the help of a barely known
foreign exchange heavyweight that is quietly taking market share away
from the banks.

Warren Whyte, Managing Director UK & Europe for Custom House, one
of the largest non-bank foreign exchange companies in the world, is
pleased to announce the company has established a strong foothold
with Italian business in Italy and has chosen Italy as its gateway to
the foreign exchange market in the rest of Europe.

"Italy is a very important part of our continued expansion in
continental Europe," said Mr Whyte. "We have an active client base
here and the growth of our business in Italy has been phenomenal in
the last year."

With offices on three continents, Custom House provides a complete
range of foreign exchange services including risk management tools
and forward contracts that allow companies to lock in favourable
exchange rates. An award-winning online solution enables clients to
transfer funds seamlessly around the world.

The Italian market is managed by Marco Frasca, Director Italy.

"We have helped a number of Italian companies with their foreign
exchange needs including paying overseas suppliers or exporting goods
internationally," said Frasca. "All are getting competitive foreign
exchange rates and service, even better than that supplied by their
own banks."

"Custom House clients come from a wide array of industries
including Oil & Gas, Fishing, Manufacturing, Textiles, Media,
Engineering and Food. Client companies range in size from Plc's to
family businesses," said Whyte. "In fact any size of business in any
sector that has a requirement to make or receive payments in any
currency other than euros ought to be talking to us."

individuals worldwide trust Custom House with its secure,
award-winning foreign exchange services. Over 50,000 clients transact
more than EUR 22 billion on-line and through the Custom House network
