Hi @bbanwait, thanks for your question.
In some cases it may be necessary for the banks involved to utilise the services of a 'correspondent' bank to assist in the transfer of funds internationally. As banks do not hold offices in every country, it is necessary to establish reciprocal agreements with a representative bank that may assist in getting the funds transferred successfully to their destination.
If a correspondent bank is needed for assistance in the transfer, they are entitled to charge a fee for their services.
Other bank charges and fees are unknown to us and therefore not accounted for in the fees quoted when initiating a transfer. This could mean that you may receive a lesser amount in your account than what the sender had originally sent. Other bank fees and agent fees are unknown to us, and therefore out of our control.

Thank you.
