Foreign exchange spot turnover rose to $1.5 trillion in April 2010 from $1.0 trillion, an
increase of 48% at current exchange rates


Turnover in outright forwards increased by
31% to $475 billion. Trading in currency swaps also grew strongly, by 39%, albeit from a
much lower level, to $43 billion.


Foreign exchange swaps, the most actively traded foreign exchange instrument by far, are
widely used by banks to raise liquidity across money markets for different currencies.............At
$1.8 trillion (+3%), the level of turnover is largely unchanged from the prior survey


Finally, the use of currency options declined by 2% between surveys, with average daily
turnover of $207 billion in April 2010

4 Trillion Market

por migluso » 23/12/2010 11:02

Daily average foreign exchange market turnover reached $4 trillion in April 2010, 20% higher than in 2007. This column describes how recent growth is largely due to the increased trading activity of “other financial institutions”, which include high-frequency traders, banks trading as clients of the biggest dealers, and online trading by retail investors.
