Plain FX Forward

FX Swap

Guarantee liquidity
without currency risk

In a FX swap, the client simultaneously buys and sells one currency to buy another currency, with both transactions having different values – one executed on the trade date and the other on a forward date. On the one hand, through the FX swap the client converts cash from one currency to another currency, thus providing short-term liquidity in a different currency, and on the other hand guarantees the exchange rate on the forward date.
