Bank exchange rates operate under central bank supervision and reflect the supply of foreign currency and the exchange-rate policy in force, which makes them the most reliable reference for transfers, imports and travel cards. Transferring through a bank is safer and better documented than informal alternatives, leaving a record you can return to — which matters in commercial dealings and imports. It helps to distinguish the cash buying rate from the transfer rate. They can differ slightly at some banks, reflecting the different cost of handling each.
