询价交易:中小商业银行渐入佳境

Small and medium-sized commercial banks:active OTC trading in the making

银行间即期外汇市场引入询价交易方式一年多来,市场运行平稳,交易量逐步放大,价格形成机制更加灵活,虽然中小商业银行在初期面临授信难、内控要求高等困难,但随着其积极参与和对询价交易方式的熟悉,它们开始渐入佳境。下一步,应为活跃中小银行外汇交易创造更有利的市场环境。

Since the introduction of the OTC trading mode in the interbank spot FX market over one year ago, the market has fared well with turnover climbing steadily and a more flexible mechanism for price formation. Small and medium-sized commercial banks, despite facing difficulties in getting credit line and meeting high internal control demands, are becoming more and more active as they become more familiar with the trading mode. In the next phase, a favorable market environment should be created for small and medium-sized banks to actively participate in FX trading.
