🔍 What is index reconstitution?

One of the core challenges in FX trading is knowing exactly when a currency is on holiday — and it’s not always as simple as checking a public calendar.
💡 That’s where we come in.

In a world driven by real-time market data and complex algorithmic infrastructure, one of the most overlooked — yet critical — aspects of global financial markets is the definition of business days for derivatives.

Anyone can find out when the next bank holiday is in New York. That’s easy — it takes a quick Google search.
But what about knowing if banks in Hong Kong are closed because of a Black Rainstorm Warning? Or if financial markets in Iran are shut to conserve electricity? Or confirming that Prayer Day in Liberia, heavy rainfall in Metro Manila, or Election Day in Togo will disrupt banking operations?

Swaps Monitor data incorporates all the nuances — local currency holidays, special business day conventions like Modified Following or End of Month adjustments, and even those tricky cases where USD acts as the intermediate currency. With Swaps Monitor, you never have to second-guess whether a date is valid or not.

At Swaps Monitor, we provide financial institutions with the most accurate, consistent, and reliable historical, current, and forward-looking holidays, trading hours, expiry dates, and other events. We take the heavy lifting out of researching, cleaning, organizing, and labelling this data—so you can focus on running your business.
