What is Forex?

Foreign exchange is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. Currencies are traded through a broker or dealer and are executed in currency pairs; for example, the Euro and the US dollar ( EUR / USD ) or the British pound and the Japanese yen ( GBP / JPY ). The Foreign Exchange Market ( FOREX ) is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily volume of over $4 trillion. This is more than three times the total amount of the stocks and futures markets combined. Unlike other financial markets, the FOREX spot market has neither a physical location nor a central exchange. It operates through an electronic network of banks, corporations, and individuals trading one currency for another. The lack of a physical exchange enables the FOREX market to operate on a 24 - hour basis, spanning from one time zone to another across the major financial centers. This fact - that there is no centralized exchange - is important to keep in mind as it permeates all aspects of the FOREX experience.

If I am an individual with no exposure to foreign exchange risks, does a currency futures exchange mean anything to me?

Yes, it does, if you want to invest purely as an investor. You can benefit from exchange rate fluctuations just as you can benefit by investing in equities in the stockmarket. However, as in the stockmarkets, you also stand to lose money if the price movements are not in keeping with what you had anticipated. Participating in a currency futures exchange is risky, just as the stockmarket is. You should therefore be knowledgeable about the currency market if you want to participate as an investor.

 

Does the national economy of India need currency futures?

Every business exposed to foreign exchange risk needs to have a facility to hedge against such risk. Exchange-traded currency futures, as on MCX-SX, are a superior tool for such hedging because of greater transparency, liquidity, counterparty guarantee and accessibility. Since the economy is made up of businesses of all sizes, anything that is good for business is also good for the national economy.
