Geographical distribution of turnover
The geographical distribution of foreign exchange trading typically changes slowly over time, and the 2010 results are no exception (Table 5). Banks located in the United Kingdom accounted for 37% of global foreign exchange market turnover, followed by the United States (18%), Japan (6%), Singapore (5%), Switzerland (5%), Hong Kong SAR (5%) and Australia (4%). Japan has recovered its third place ranking, which it lost in the 2007 survey. Singapore has moved up ahead of Switzerland in 2010.
In dollar terms, the greatest increases in trading activity were in the United Kingdom ($371 billion), the United States ($159 billion), Japan ($62 billion) and Hong Kong SAR ($57 billion). Other countries that saw significant growth relative to the 2007 survey include Denmark, France, Singapore, Finland, Turkey and Spain.
