The FX Global Code (Code), a set of global principles of good practice in the foreign exchange market, has been developed by a partnership of central banks and market participants. It provides a common set of guidelines in order to promote the integrity and effective functioning of the wholesale foreign exchange market. The Code is expected to be adopted across the entire FX market, including the sell-side, buy-side, non-bank participants and platforms.
