Members of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), including the Bundesbank, have renewed their Statements of Commitment to the FX Global Code. The Code, which aims to promote a robust, fair, liquid, open and appropriately transparent foreign exchange market, was updated and expanded in July 2021. According to an ECB press release “With these Statements of Commitment, the members of the ESCB emphasise that the principles of the Code are important in ensuring the continued integrity and effective functioning of the foreign exchange market.”
