[edit] Naming

The description and the naming of the lemma is not quite clear to me. The first part of the article seems to describe an FX Swap to me (FX cash plus reverse FX forward). The last part then describes a combination with an interest rate swap. I would call this a cross currency swap (as in the navigation bar); Hull, admittedly, calls it a currency swap. Although english is not my native language, I deal (not trade) with these things in English quite frequently and I am pretty confident about the naming. --172.173.159.207 11:06, 30 December 2006 (UTC) (i. e. de:Benutzer Marinebanker)
