How Exchange Rates Work

An exchange rate is simply the value of one nation's currency versus another nation's currency. Rates fluctuate continuously based on global economic activity, central bank interest rates, and inflation.

• Mid-Market Rate: The midpoint between global buy and sell rates. This is the "real" rate you see on Google, though banks often add a markup to this rate when converting your money.
• Floating Rates: Most major global currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY) are "floating", meaning their value is driven by market supply and demand.
• Pegged Rates: Some countries "peg" their currency to a stronger currency like the US Dollar to maintain economic stability.
