Abstract
► Forward exchange swaps are the largest market in the world. ► We introduce hedgers into a standard microstructure model of exchange rate activity. ► We study the determinants to covered interest returns using actual swap transactions. ► Economically significant returns to covered interest arbitrage exist. ► Returns are determined by contract irregularity, market activity and trader identity.
