Some Data About The Origin And Development Of The Currency Exchange Market

Currency trading has a long history and can be traced back to the ancient Middle East and Middle Ages when foreign exchange started to take shape after the international merchant bankers devised bills of exchange,
which were transferable third-party payments that allowed flexibility and growth in foreign exchange dealings.

In turn, the U.S. dollar was pegged to gold at $35 per ounce.
Thus, the U.S. dollar became the world's reserve currency
