    Well country x who are now paying 24% less for their goods due to currency changes,[24% your number <whistle>] will when paying a tariff of say 15% will still be getting there goods 9% cheaper from us so will carry on buying British if fact will probably increase the order.

    At the rate you currency is fluctuating, itll be impossible for any country to do business with you. How do you expect suppliers to agree long term contracts when no one has any idea what sterling will be worth in a couple of weeks let alone six months away

    If you knew what you thnk you do Steve Parkin would have given you the job. An expert in international finance and political negotiations would be invaluable to an international logistics company........ Why didnt you get the gig?

    Can only be fixed within certain parameters ie 2 to 3%. A manufacturing customer of mine who exports quite a lot to UK is exactly in this position. He has nearly 400 workers, lots of UK government contracts lasting up to two years. There is only a certain amount of flexibility in the contracts they sign

    From my experience, most international contracts are priced in USD, so I'm a little puzzled by this. Alternatively, your customer could insist on being paid in Euros. Pretty sure he didn't complain when the exchange rate suited him.
