Definitely the top 5 or 6 banks are going to be doing this. That's Chase, Citi, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs...also PNC, Capital One, US Bank and there may also be regional banks...Credit Unions probably won't exchange foreign currencies.
Most of them do not. Some of them do...Credit Unions are member owned...You definitely want to shop...you get the wealth manager contact from three major banks. You say, 'I have roughly $10 million in foreign currency. I want to exchange them. What's your spread and are you going to charge me any fees?' You go shopping just like you would for a car.

🏦💵 Which Banks Could Handle Large Iraqi Dinar Exchanges If a Revaluation Occurs?
One interesting point being discussed within the Dinar community is which financial institutions might be prepared to handle large foreign currency exchanges if Iraq were to implement a significant monetary change in the future.
The belief is that major U.S. banks would likely be at the forefront due to their international banking operations, foreign currency capabilities, wealth management divisions, and global infrastructure. Institutions often mentioned include:
🏦 JPMorgan Chase
🏦 Citigroup
🏦 Bank of America
🏦 Wells Fargo
🏦 Goldman Sachs
🏦 PNC Financial Services
🏦 Capital One
🏦 U.S. Bancorp
The idea is that if someone were holding a substantial amount of foreign currency, they would not simply walk into the nearest branch without first doing their homework.
💡 The advice often shared is to "shop around."
Just as you would compare prices when buying a car, you would compare banks before exchanging a large currency position. Questions to ask might include:
✅ What exchange spread are you offering?
✅ Are there any fees?
✅ Do you provide private banking or wealth management services?
✅ What investment opportunities are available after the exchange?
✅ Can you negotiate a better rate for larger amounts?
Many believe that credit unions may not play a major role because most do not regularly deal with foreign currency exchanges, although some exceptions could exist depending on the institution.
📈 If a future monetary event involving the Iraqi dinar were to occur, the real competition may not be about whether banks will exchange it, but rather which institutions offer the best overall package, the lowest fees, the best exchange terms, and the strongest wealth management services afterward.
🚀 For many Diarians, the exchange is only the beginning. The real goal is protecting and growing wealth once the transaction is complete.
