Japanese Yen Futures Contract
The yen is the third-most commonly traded foreign currency. Because the Japanese economy is one of the largest in the world, and Tokyo is an important financial center, the relative dominance of the Japanese currency is appropriate. The combination of a vibrant trade-based economy paired with Bank of Japan-depressed interest rates gives the yen unique properties sought by traders.
