CARRY TRADE
Trading technique which involves borrowing of money at a low interest rate and investing in an asset with higher rate of return. Normally, it is based on borrowing in a currency with low interest rate and converting the borrowed amount into another, with the proceeds either deposited in the second currency if it offers higher interest rate, or placed into assets including bonds, commodities, real estate, or stocks, which are denominated in the second currency. This strategy is only suitable for deep-pocketed entities due to two major risks: sharp decline in asset prices and implicit exchange risk when funding currency is different from the borrower’s domestic currency.
