Do Sports Affect the Financial Markets?


The answer is a resounding yes — and this week is a perfect example.

Iraq and Congo-Kinshasa both declared holidays following their national football teams’ qualification for the FIFA World Cup.

This is far from unprecedented. Since 1997, there have been over 30 instances of governments declaring holidays to celebrate a sporting event or triumph.

At Swaps Monitor, we monitor every holiday — planned and ad-hoc — so your operations always stay on top of their game.

Anticipate. Plan. Trust.
