How international money transfers work
International wire transfers rely on the SWIFT network to facilitate the transmission of transfer instructions from the sender's bank to the recipient's bank. Before approving the transfer, any relevant fees are assessed. The exchange rate between CAD and LKR is determined by either the sender's bank or the recipient's bank, and the funds are subsequently transferred between the respective accounts.
