Currency Alternatives
  • PEX FX offers several different contracts tailored to suit our clients specific needs;
    Spot Contracts
    A spot contract is an agreement to buy currency for immediate delivery (up to three days ahead). Spot contracts are suitable for businesses that are looking for the most competitive exchange rates and have an immediate requirement.
    Flexi-Forward Contracts
    A forward contract enables our clients to lock in an exchange rate for delivery up to one year in the future. This allows companies to protect themselves from adverse currency movements and fluctuations, which is an attractive proposition for companies wishing to fix at a favourable rate.
    PEX FX is also able to offer our clients a drawdown forward contract, which is similar to a forward contract; however, it allows clients to take early delivery of all or part of a forward contract.
    Market Order
    If you are looking to hit a specific level, we can arrange a market order. We monitor the markets on your behalf, so should the market hit your specific rate/level, your currency is bought or sold automatically as per your instruction. The order will be left in the system until it is amended, cancelled or has been fulfilled.

Alternative currency
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Not to be confused with private currency complementary currency Alternative currency is a term that refers to any currency used as an alternative to the dominant national or multinational currency systems (usually referred to as national or fiat money ). Alternative currencies can be created by an individual, corporation, or organization, they can be created by national, state, or local governments, or they can arise naturally as people begin to use a certain commodity as a currency. Mutual credit is a form of alternative currency, and thus any form of lending that does not go through the banking system can be considered a form of alternative currency. When used in combination with or when designed to work in combination with national or multinational fiat currencies they can be referred to as complementary currency . Most complementary currencies are also local currencies and are limited to a certain region. Barters are another type of alternative currency. These are actually exchange systems, which only trade items; thus without the use of any currency whatsoever. Finally, LETS is a special form of barter which trades points for items. One point stands for one man-hour of work. Often there are issues related to paying tax . Some alternative currencies are considered tax-exempt, but most of them are fully taxed as if they were national currency, with the caveat that the tax must be paid in the national currency. The legality and tax-status of alternative currencies varies widely from country to country; some systems in use in some countries would be illegal in others.

    Dollar Declines as Nations Mull Reserve Currency Alternatives
    The euro gained for a fourth day versus the dollar as the Russian government said emerging-market leaders may discuss the idea of a supranational currency. The pound rose to the highest level since October and the Canadian dollar traded near an eight-month high on speculation signs of a recovery in U.S. and U.K. housing will spur higher-yield demand.
    The dollar slid 1.1 percent to $1.4317 per euro at 4:21 p.m. in New York, from $1.4159 yesterday. It touched $1.4331, the weakest level since Dec. 29. The dollar depreciated 1.1 percent to 95.54 yen, from 96.59. The euro traded at 136.77 yen, compared with 136.78.
    Sterling rose as much as 0.9 percent to $1.6596, the highest level since Oct. 30, while the Canadian dollar advanced 1.2 percent to C$1.0806, near the strongest level since Oct. 3.

    USD Shoe About To Drop? Christopher Laird
    www.PrudentSquirrel.com
    In the last month, the USD has come bounding to the forefront of the gold market. There were several comments by the Chinese that the USD is due for a fall if there are movements away from continued accumulation of USD foreign reserves- that is not a surprise. And of course, Greenspan recently stated the USD is due for a gradual fall. Also, there has been a spate of central banker's comments this year that CBs should not be accumulating so many dollars, but to move more into the Euro, and other currencies. Middle-East Oil nations are among them. And, the falling USD recently is causing holders of USD reserves to take losses. With China at close to $1 trillion of foreign reserves, mostly in the USD, they have suffered roughly a 10% loss in their value compared to other currency alternatives. And Middle-East oil nations as well are taking losses, and are complaining, and so on. US/China Trade Pressures There is continuing trade pressure by the US Congress for sanctions on China if it does not address long standing trade issues with the US, the value of the Renminbi for one, and other issues such as market access for US products.

    Currency Alternatives for Impersonal Markets
    An effective community is a process, an ongoing collection of interactions and continuing relationships. Michael Linton
    Up to this point, our consideration of exchange alternatives, specifically, local currencies and mutual credit systems, has emphasized the importance of personal commitment within relatively small, limited communities of cooperators. The social dynamics which exist within such groups are a very important element in assuring the workability of these approaches. The social and economic interrelationships within a community are mutually reinforcing and evolve simultaneously. The formation of mutual credit systems such as LETS is one approach to building community while mobilizing the productive potential of labor which has been undervalued by the market or marginalized by the dominant national and global systems. The building of community is not just a by-product, but an essential requirement if human needs are to be adequately satisfied. But there may be other ways "to get from here to there." There may be some places and circumstances in which a less direct approach might be more workable, at least as an intermediate step. As Michael Linton expresses it, "Most regions are communities only in name rather than reality.

    Because of the outrageous cost of attending Austrian doomsday conventions one must assume the attendees must be educated. Outside of the kids, I have never met a Ron Paul supporter who didn't have a college degree. In fact I read that Rand Paul is leading among voters with a college degree, yet losing among those without one. Why does such a primative idea attract otherwise intelligent people?

    In some ways I think educated smart people are more susceptible to crap like this than total morons, though of course the uneducated are mostly the rank-and-file of the CT legions. I don't know why that is, though it may be because of the promoters' talent at packaging the crap in a way that appeals to smart people, the same way they package it to dumb people.

    "Having a college degree" doesn't necessarily mean "educated." Plenty of college degree holders suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect.

      By Claudia Carpenter and Pham-Duy Nguyen document.write(dateFormat(new Date(1272305134000),"mmm d, yyyy h:MM TT Z")); Mon Apr 26 18:05:34 GMT 2010 Gold futures were little changed in New York after climbing to a one-week high as some investors sought an alternative to currencies. The euro fell as much as 0.7 percent against the dollar as the cost of insuring Greek government debt against default reached a record. Gold priced in euros and Swiss francs climbed to records. “There’s still a lot of concern about the value of the euro and that moves a lot of money into gold,” said Frank Lesh, a trader at FuturePath Trading LLC in Chicago. “In the U.S., a stronger dollar still brings in sellers.” Gold futures for June delivery rose 30 cents to $1,154 an ounce on the Comex in New York. Earlier, the price touched $1,160.70, the highest level since April 16, before falling as low as $1,151.10. Concern that Greece’s mounting debt may erode the value of the euro has dragged the 16-nation currency down 6.9 percent against the dollar this year. Investors are also selling euros and buying gold on speculation that other European countries may need a bailout.

    IMF economists review reserve currency alternatives
    By: Date: PARIS, Nov 12 (Reuters) - Policymakers should consider ways of shifting from a dollar-centric global monetary system to one with a wider range of reserve assets and some form of insurance that would reduce reserve accumulation, IMF economists say. The worst economic downturn in 70 years has revived concerns over a monetary "non-system" where the weaknesses have amplified as emerging economies built up reserves to self-insure against capital account crises in recent years, the economists say. The economists laid out their thoughts in a paper that does not commit the International Monetary Fund as an institution and essentially amounts to a review of options governments may want to consider as they seek to deliver on pledges to push for a more balanced economic system. To ease reserve demand, policymakers could explore promoting alternatives ranging from third-party insurance to a system where countries could borrow from global or regional reserve pools through a lender of last resort. The latter was a role the IMF could play but only if it had far greater resources, said the paper, which noted that academic estimates of the necessary resources were anything from $1 trillion to limitless.
