Over the counter (OTC) refers to foreign exchange transactions that occur outside regulated exchanges (such as the New Yok Stock Exchange or London Stock Exchange).

  • Spot transaction: the exchange of two currencies within two days without a signed contract;
  • Forward: an agreement for the purchase and sale of currency at a fixed price at a point in the future (generally after 90 days);
  • Swap: the simultaneous lending and borrowing of two different currencies between two investors (i.e. one investor borrows an amount in one currency, then repays in a different currency);
  • Option: an agreement to exchange one currency for another at an agreed rate at some time on the future, but with no obligation to carry out the transaction (unlike with forwards).
