Interest rate Carry

Foreign exchange positions are subject to overnight funding costs, which are based on the difference in interest rates between the currency pairs involved. This is known as the carry trade, where investors borrow in currencies with low interest rates and invest in currencies with higher rates. The resulting income or cost is a crucial consideration for traders in managing their foreign exchange positions. It is important to understand the impact of overnight funding costs on overall profitability and risk management in the foreign exchange market.
