New Hampshire-based Starboard Services offers strategic CFO services to dozens of international businesses that trade with US clients.

Led by founder Bill Starr, the business offers on the ground in-person strategic finance and accounting support for clients in the UK, Europe and further afield ensuring they can operate effectively in many US States while optimizing tax and compliance that can be a challenge to overseas entrants to the US market.

Since 2023, Evolve Currency Management has supported a growing number of Starboard Services clients to streamline the overseas transfer aspects of Starboard’s support, and to deliver significant efficiencies and cost savings.

“US banks vary greatly in their systems and their competitiveness when it comes to making overseas transactions, and we wanted to standardize our client experience as most are making significant exchanges very regularly. One by one we have migrated many of them to the Evolve Currency technology platform, allowing them to instruct payments from the overseas offices themselves if desired, and see funds arrive on the same day, improving cash management and liquidity.

“As well as the freedom this gives finance teams, savings of two, three or even four percent on wires is not unusual compared to some of the smaller regional banks rates, and that means it makes even more sense to have a dedicated partner like Evolve Currency for this aspect of their financial management.”
