Our history:
FOREX was started in Stockholm, Sweden in 1965, providing services for travelers, at the Central Station in Stockholm. The owner of Gyllenspet’s Barber Shop, according to the legend, discovered that most of his customers were tourists in need of currency for their trips. The owner began keeping the major currencies on hand.
The company has expanded into Finland (1993), Denmark (1994) and Norway (2004) and has 130 shops, located at railway stations or airports, shopping malls and other hubs. In 2003, the company extended its business into banking and can also offer current and savings accounts incl internet and mobile banking, loans, debit and credit cards, cash handling, money transfer and payments.
