Answer to Question 1

There are a number of reasons why companies use the foreign-exchange market. The most obvious is for import and export transactions. Companies also use the foreign-exchange market for financial transactions, such as those in FDI. Sometimes companies, but mostly traders and investors, deal in foreign exchange solely for profit. One type of profit-seeking activity is arbitrage, which is the purchase of foreign currency on one market for immediate resale on another market (in a different country) to profit from a price discrepancy.
