It is a phrase used in Colombia to describe those involved in the money exchange business. Can anyone suggust an equivalent term in English? Currency exchange professionals just doesn't sound right.

I am not an expert in finance, but I believe the term is "money changer." There is the possibility of it having become antiquated, but I think it is still actually in use to describe both people and even businesses involved in foreign currency exchange.

Sounds great but I couldn't find it in the dictionary nor did I get a hit on Google. - EKolbinsky, Feb 12, 2012
