| | The most common type of currency swap is actually a fixed-for-floating currency swap, wherein payments in one currency at a floating rate are swapped for payments in another currency at a fixed rate. | | | Because currency swaps are always fixed-for-floating, in order to get a fixed-for-fixed swap you would have to enter both a fixed-for-floating currency swap and a plain vanilla interest rate swap. | | | Currency Swaps A currency swap involves the exchange of interest payments on debt which is denominated in different currencies. |

| | Comments on "Future exchange rate regimes for developing East Asia: exploring the policy options" by Professor John Williamson |
| | I suspect that, in a world where the major currencies are floating against each other, there are some real risks in fixing irrevocably to any one of them unless a very high proportion of the country's trade is with the country with which a currency union is sought. | | | Certainly, fixing one's currency to a larger, but still floating, currency does not seem to be a way of avoiding serious misalignment, as the very strong real appreciations of, say, Hong Kong and Argentina in recent years illustrate. | | | A second crucially important reason why floating rate regimes are less susceptible to crisis is that domestic banks tend to hedge the currency risk of the foreign borrowing they undertake. |
