IMPORTANT! Notice on US Federal Reserve Rates

Dear MarketView Customer,

As of January 2nd, 2009, the US Federal Reserve will no longer be posting foreign exchange cross rates on a daily basis. We are recommending that any customer currently using the Fed rates should switch to data provided by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The difference in symbology is simple - the suffix of the symbol needs to be changed from "USF" to "IMF". Please see the example symbols listed below:

US Fed symbol sample for US Dollar/Euro cross rate:

#fxEURUSDUSF

Corresponding IMF symbol for US Dollar/Euro cross rate:

#fxEURUSDIMF

The MarketView application will be altered to use the IMF rates as the default for currency conversions, starting on January 2nd. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.


Best regards,

Brian Martin
