Forex trading

Many central banks from all over the world are willing to trade their forex or foreign currency reserves for gold. One of the banks is the BB what stands for Bangladesh Bank, the forex trade to gold will be taken shortly. This decision is made to lower the risk on the investments in forex currency, 11.1 billion dollar is invested in forex. The fluctuation in forex money is becoming higher and riskier, this means central banks are not insured for getting the same amount of currency back. Because of that risk many banks that are having forex investments are changing to a more secure risk like gold.

Not just the BB changed to gold, even India and Sri Lanka dropped many forex currencies to minimize losses in foreign exchange market. Gold is very strong on the stock market and was very stable in the last 20 years, it even got stronger and got more value then it losses. With these new investment value of money in countries like Bangladesh will be more secure then trading with forex on long terms. Foreign exchange can be very profitable when trading fast and big, long term investments can fluctuate strong which can lead to big losses.

There has been 200 Million dollar invested in gold to start with, some sources say the BB will invest more than 50 percent in gold instead of forex exchange. More countries will follow shortly when local currencies fluctuate even more. During this decision local currencies dropped in value a few percent.
