SPOT & FORWARD RATES METHODOLOGY GUIDE 1.2 Uses of the Rates The majority of the main equity and bond index compilers use the WM/Reuters exchange rates in their calculations, and the original uses of the rates in portfolio valuations and performance measurement are still very relevant. However, other uses of the rates have developed and are becoming increasingly important. In 1997, the WM/Reuters Closing Forward Rates service was launched to complement the Closing Spot Rates service. In 2001, the WM/Reuters Intraday Spot Rates service was launched to extend the spot rates product and meet customers’ growing requirements.
