The foreign exchange market (forex, FX, or currency market) is a global decentralized market for the trading of currencies.

This includes all aspects of buying, selling and exchanging currencies at current or determined prices.

In terms of volume of trading, it is by far the largest market in the world, followed by the Credit market.

The main participants in this market are the larger international banks.

Financial centres around the world function as anchors of trading between a wide range of multiple types of buyers and sellers around the clock, with the exception of weekends.
