Foreign currency transactions:

CIBC may, in its discretion, permit transactions in a currency different from that of your account. The foreign currency will be converted to the currency of your account at the exchange rate determined by CIBC on a date determined by CIBC, which may be different from the date you performed the transaction.

If a foreign currency instrument previously deposited and converted to the currency of your account is returned to CIBC unpaid for any reason, you agree an amount equal to the foreign currency instrument will be converted to the currency of your account based on a foreign exchange sell rate determined by CIBC on a date determined by CIBC and the converted amount will be charged back to your account.

CIBC is not responsible for any losses you may incur due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates or the unavailability of funds due to foreign currency restrictions. You agree that any claims CIBC may have against you, and any service or other charges related to your account, can be deducted from your account in the same currency as the account¹².

Account conversions:

If you change your account type prior to the end of the final business day of the month to an account with a different fee structure, all transactions during that month, including those made before the change, will be subject to the fees under the fee structure that applies to your new account type at the end of the month. However, any fees which have already been paid or deducted from your account during the month (money orders, for example) will not be refunded upon conversion.
