9. Forward Outright
A Forward Outright is a trade that will commence at an agreed upon date (in the future). There is no centralized exchange for Forwards and forward trading is often customized to meet the needs of the buyer and seller. Forward Outrights are expressed as a price above (premium) or below (discount) the spot rate. The forward FX price is the sum of the spot price and the margin. This price is a reflection of the FX rate at the forward date where if the trade were executed at that rate there would be no profit or loss.
