    Some warned that the lack of dramatic action creates the risk that market makers may exit as it becomes harder to generate profits.

    Wtf is a “market maker” in currency exchange markets?! Those people add nothing of value to the world and only suck wealth from others. Please, exit.

      Market maker is a regulatory designation where a financial institution has to provide liquidity, which sometimes means taking on trades you wouldn’t otherwise. It’s not as glamorous as it sounds, especially in FX markets where profit margins have been nanometer-thin for ages.
