FX Survey 2014: Special focus

Find out how regulation is changing the FX market for everyone; who's best for trading what currency where; and information about the FX Survey and FX Respondent Reports.


How regulation is changing the FX market

Reign of terror

The reign of terror


Investigations into allegations of market fixing in foreign exchange are spreading into the very heart of the business. Those running the world’s biggest FX houses live in fear of what analysis of hundreds of millions of calls and emails will unearth. Do investigators and regulators risk bringing down the axe on a market that has always provided unrivalled liquidity and ultra-tight pricing for clients? 

The trials of a global head of foreign exchange


Who would be a global head of foreign exchange in a market like this? Most of them are spending the vast majority of their days dealing with investigations, rather than thinking strategically about their business or going out to see clients.






Who's best where? FX Survey results



Ranking FX banks by market share around the globe, the Euromoney FX Survey is the industry's leading review of FX trading, research and e-business capabilities for corporates, real money, banks, and leveraged funds. Find out who's best for trading what currency where.

More about the FX Survey

The FX Survey is the most comprehensive quantitative and qualitative annual study available on the FX markets. The FX market is an unregulated OTC market and there are no reliable, aggregated, global statistics made available against which to benchmark the survey outside the BIS studies. The FX Survey allows market participants to discern the relative performance of the foreign exchange activity of the banks ranked in the survey. 

As well as quantitative data on a global, regional and client and product-type basis, Euromoney also publishes qualitative performance rankings across a similar range of categories. View more information.
