I had read this. Interesting. I'm not sure what some of it means, but I do follow swaps closely as I'm trying to learn more about them. Not necessarily currency swaps, but more when larger producers of commodities enter in to them. Currency and commodity swaps aren't exactly the same, but mostly the same risk management concepts at play.

My understanding is pretty basic, and I obviously won't be trading any RRP's, etc. Looks to me like the RRP's will be used to set floors in the interest rate markets and the swaps are for making sure liquidity doesn't dry up. Also, looks to me like the likelihood of an interest rate increase this summer went down.
