I currently live in India and will be moving to the UK by July 2026.

I have funds in USD investments my fidelity account and I’m looking for the best way to convert and hold the money in GBP until I relocate and use it for my initial settlement expenses.

Currently, I can transfer the USD to INR in my Indian bank account and then convert to GBP, but that would involve double forex conversion charges and additional fees.

What would be the best way to handle this ? Has anyone gone through a similar process while moving from India to the UK ?
