PART 1
Overall ranking by market share: based on the total volume of FX business placed annually with each bank. To obtain this figure, we asked respondents to estimate the proportion of their total annual FX dealings placed with their 10 top counterparties.
Most improved overall market share: based on year-on-year percentage change in total reported bank turnover. Any bank with a turnover less than $100bn in the 2008 survey was excluded. Banks with a low absolute volume reported in last year’s survey could see a substantial improvement in 2008 turnover and market share based just one or two extra votes in the 2009 survey.
