A financial translation desk, accurate down to every number.
I'm Dao Huy (Lucas). For seven years I've lived with financial reports, candlestick charts and market briefings, so I read your documents with an insider's eye. To me, a number in the wrong place is as worrying as a trade filled at the wrong price.
Native Vietnamese translator for finance, forex and trading.
Honestly, I love numbers. In finance, words and figures are tightly bound together: a single basis point off, a wrong currency unit or a misread derivatives term can send an entire investment thesis in the wrong direction. So I don't translate by typing as I read, I read your documents as if some of my own money were riding on them.
I'm Dao Huy, also known as Lucas. For more than seven years I've translated finance, forex and trading content for brokers such as Exness, JustMarkets, iTrader, SwiftTrade, and worked with international translation companies like TransPerfect, Welocalize and LanguageWire. I'm not a flashy agency, just a meticulous professional who replies fast and keeps his word.
I take on a fair range of work: financial and audit reports, market analysis, investment newsletters, forex and derivatives documents, crypto whitepapers, compliance files. Each type has its own voice, and I respect that, so the translation is both technically accurate and reads naturally in Vietnamese, not stiff like machine translation.
Are you a broker that needs platform localization, a fund that needs periodic reports translated, or do you just need to understand an important document correctly? Send it over. I work by three principles: accurate to every number, absolutely discreet and always on time. No runaround, no hidden fees.

What is financial translation?
Financial translation is the rendering of documents in finance, banking, investment and the markets from one language into another, with very high demands on the accuracy of figures, currency units and specialist terminology.
How is it different from ordinary translation?
Financial documents are full of numbers, ratios and terms with very narrow meanings. The translator must understand the underlying business to avoid distorting the meaning, for example distinguishing basis points from percentages, or nominal interest rates from real ones.
What types does it cover?
Financial reports, prospectuses, market analysis and briefings, forex and derivatives documents, crypto whitepapers, contracts, along with compliance documents such as KYC, AML and risk disclosures.
Why is high accuracy needed?
A small error in a report or a clause can lead to a wrong investment decision, a contract dispute or a compliance risk. In finance, accuracy is not a choice but a requirement.
A financial translation that meets the standard is not only correct on the numbers but also fits its reader: professional investors need exact terminology, while documents aimed at end users need clarity and readability. I adjust the tone to suit each document's audience and purpose, so financial information is conveyed in full without misunderstanding.
Why you need a specialist financial translator, not machine translation.
One number, two opposite outcomes
A translator unfamiliar with the markets can easily turn 25 basis points into 25%, and just like that a mild rate hike becomes a policy earthquake. I read figures like an insider, so traps like this rarely slip past me.
And this is no rare mistake: market briefings, policy meeting minutes and earnings reports are full of units and nuances that are easy to confuse. I scrutinize them with a business foundation and a dedicated figure-checking process, because I know a single number off can lead a reader to place the wrong trade.
