Hedge Funds in SigmaForex

  • Hedge Funds

As we know the FX market can be extremely liquid which is why it can be desirable to trade. Hedge Funds have increasingly allocated portions of their portfolios to speculate on the FX market.

Another advantage Hedge Funds can utilize is a much higher degree of leverage than would typically be found in the equity markets.

  • Corporate Businesses

The FX market mainstay is that of international trade. Many companies have to import or exports goods to different countries all around the world. Payment for these goods and services may be made and received in different currencies. Many billions of dollars are exchanges daily to facilitate trade. The timing of those transactions can dramatically affect a company's balance sheet.
The Man In The Street
Although you may not think it, the man in the street also plays a part in toady's FX world. Every time he goes on holiday overseas he normally need to purchase that country's currency and again change it back into his own currency once he returns. Unwittingly he is in fact trading currencies.
He may also purchase goods and services whilst overseas and his credit card company has to convert those sales back into his base currency in order to charge him.
