Currency Derivatives

Currency/Foreign exchange market is the biggest financial market in the world. The highest amount of trading both by volume and value takes place in the currency markets. Unlike equity markets, a unique feature of the currency markets is that it is a 24 hour market.

This makes the currency market most liquid financial market in the world.

The highest possible leverage, maximum potential of earning and round the clock trading hours has made currency trading a popular investment avenue. While both exchange-traded and Over the counter (OTC) derivative contracts offer many benefits, the key difference is that exchange traded derivatives are standardized, more transparent, the counterparty risk is borne by a centralized corporation with stringent margining systems while OTC contracts are customized, opaque in pricing, risk management is decentralized and individual institutions/ client take counterparty risk of each other.
