ACI FMA Webinar: Global FX Turnover
Key findings from the BIS Triennial Survey and their implications for FX trading activity.
In April 2025, central banks and other authorities from more than 50 jurisdictions conducted national surveys of turnover in the foreign exchange markets. FX market activity has been surveyed every three years since 1986, coordinated by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) in Basel/Switzerland. The BIS Triennial Survey is the most comprehensive source of information on the size and structure of global FX markets. The global results show that trading in foreign exchange markets averaged $9.5 trillion per day in April 2025, up 27% from 2022.
The webinar on 20 January 2026 will examine how structural shifts and policy changes have shaped trading activity. For instance, the US tariff announcements’ impact on trading activity in April appears to have been substantial. Furthermore, the presentation will look at the effects of the global monetary policy tightening in the years leading up to the survey on the costs of FX hedging and hedging activity, and it will focus on developments in the FX trade execution landscape.
The topics above and other interesting insights from the survey will be presented by:
- Andreas Schrimpf, Head of Financial Markets, BIS
- Vladyslav Sushko, Principal Economist, Financial Stability Policy team, BIS
This event is open to members of all ACI FMA Affiliated National Associations and selected guests, and it will be recorded.
