Your dedicated manager arranges its issuance and delivery through our partner institutions and coordinates the timing with the developer or the seller's side, so your closing does not wait on paperwork. ### Fully online onboarding, resident or not Open your account with one of our licensed partner institutions without visiting a branch. With your documents in order, activation typically takes 2–5 business days. ### Client funds safeguarded Your money is held by our licensed partner institutions in segregated client accounts, separate from their own capital, under strict AML and KYC procedures. ### An account in your name, in AED and 30+ currencies Hold AED alongside EUR, USD, GBP and more in an account in your own name. Receive sale proceeds or rent from your UAE property and send funds to bank accounts in 100+ countries. ### Payments to developers and escrow accounts, on schedule Off-plan instalments, completion amounts and agency fees go out in AED, straight to the developer's escrow account or the seller's account, through our partner institutions. Your dedicated manager follows every transfer against your payment schedule. ### Competitive rates. Transparent fees. Exchange your home currency into AED at spreads close to the interbank market, with the exact rate and fee shown before you confirm. No hidden charges, and if we cannot beat the terms your bank offers, we will tell you so.

From a first off-plan instalment to rent paid home every month, FinHED supports non-resident investors at every stage, and the brokers and developers who work with them. ### For non-resident buyers Open an account with one of our licensed partner institutions entirely online, fund it in your home currency and pay your deposit and instalments in AED. At completion we arrange the manager's cheque for your developer or the seller through the same partner, and your dedicated manager checks each payment against your schedule. ### For non-resident sellers Receive your sale proceeds into an account in your own name, deposit the buyer's manager's cheque through our partner institution, exchange AED into your home currency at a rate agreed before you confirm, and transfer the funds to your bank at home over SWIFT or SEPA. ### For real estate brokers Give your international clients a partner who arranges the money side: accounts opened remotely, transfers that arrive on time and one manager they can call. Fewer delays between reservation and completion, and a smoother experience on every deal. ### For non-resident landlords Collect rent in AED into an account in your name, convert it to your home currency at competitive rates and transfer it home as often as you like, with online balances and statements that keep everything in view. ### For property developers Sell off-plan to international buyers without losing them to payment friction: multi-currency collections through our partner institutions, settlement in AED and a single point of contact for your buyers' payment questions.

Through our partner institutions a seller, agency or developer can receive international transfers into an account in AED, then hold the funds, move them on or exchange them into another currency at a rate agreed before you confirm. ### Can I get a manager's cheque through FinHED? Yes. We arrange the issuance and delivery of manager's cheques through our partner institutions and coordinate the timing with the developer or the seller's side, so the cheque is ready when your contract needs it. ### How are deposits and completion payments handled? They are transferred from your account with our partner institution, in AED, to the developer's escrow account or the seller's account, exactly as your contract sets out. You receive a unique reference for every transfer and your dedicated manager confirms the timeline before you send, so you always have proof of payment when the developer or the conveyancer asks for it. ### Where are my funds held? FinHED works exclusively with licensed institutions under regulatory supervision. Client funds are held fully segregated from the institution's own capital (safeguarding), in line with the rules of the regulators in the jurisdictions where our partners operate. ### Do you work with brokers and developers, or only with individual investors? Both. Individual investors receive a dedicated manager for their purchase, sale or rental income. Brokers and developers can partner with FinHED to give their international clients the same service, with one point of contact for every payment question. ### How do your fees compare to a bank? Our partner institutions quote spreads close to the interbank market, and every fee is agreed upfront and applied exactly as quoted. What you see is what you pay. ### Have more questions? Whatever your situation, your dedicated manager is one call away. [Contact us](https://www.finhed.com/contact) ## One partner for every payment on your property.
