a company with a foreign debt can use a swap by finding a company in the foreign country where the debt is held which also has a debt in the home country where the first company is located and swap the payment so tha respective home currencies are used. swaps can also be used when a company wants to issue loans either at fixed rate of interest or floating rate.
