The eight foreign exchange committees in the major financial centres have worked together closely since the 2014 global foreign exchange committee meeting in Sydney to draft this revised document, which features more detailed, globally harmonised guidance. The document covers topics such as personal conduct, confidentiality and market conduct, and policies for execution practices and reflects a number of the Financial Stability Board’s Foreign Exchange Benchmark recommendations.
	The committees expect foreign exchange market participants to incorporate this guidance into their processes and control frameworks in a timely manner. The committees will continue to build on this global collaboration as they seek to promote adherence to best market practices and to help facilitate implementation of the Financial Stability Board’s Foreign Exchange Benchmark recommendations.
	These committees collaborated in the drafting of the Global Preamble:
	- 
		Australian Foreign Exchange Committee
 
	- 
		Canadian Foreign Exchange Committee
 
	- 
		ECB’s Foreign Exchange Contact Group
