template Instrument

This template models a foreign exchange swap (FX Swap). It has two legs: an initial FX transaction and a final FX transaction. The instrument has a base currency and a foreign currency. The convention is that a holding owner receives the foreign currency in the initial transaction (and pays it in the final transaction). Both FX rates and transaction dates are predetermined between the counterparties. For example: USD 1000k vs EUR 1100k (fx rate: 1.10) today USD 1000k vs EUR 1200k (fx rate: 1.20) in 6 months
