| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In finance, the exchange rates between two currencies specify how much one currency is worth in terms of the other. It is the value of a foreign nation's currency in terms of the home nation's currency. For example an exchange rate of 91 Japanese yen (JPY, ) to the United States dollar (USD, $) means that JPY 91 is worth the same as USD 1. The foreign exchange market is one of the largest markets in the world. By some estimates, about 3.2 trillion USD worth of currency changes hands every day. The spot exchange rate refers to the current exchange rate. The forward exchange rate refers to an exchange rate that is quoted and traded today but for delivery and payment on a specific future date. This book studies foreign exchange rates including floating exchange rates, futures exchange, currency, and currency strength.
