Payment of a quantity of one currency to buy units of the other currency is a particular feature of Forex. The modern Forex market actually started forming during the 1970s after many restrictions which were put by the government. Then norms relating to financial and commercial regulations became prevalent during the Bretton woods systems which were then implemented.

Countries actually moved from exchange rate regime to floating exchange rate and as per the said norms, this remain fixed. This market is really a huge one and all those transactions which are large, actually hit the currency of the country.
