International Payments Process
Local banks convert payments to
the currency required by foreign
trade associates
Local banks then send payment,
in foreign currency, to the foreign
trade partner
The foreign trade partner
deposits the payment in his/her
own foreign-based bank
When equal values of money
are moving back and forth between nations,
no real funds need to be transferred between nations
because the payments are in balance
