In Example 4 of Chapter 23 of the OpenTuition eBook, the exchange rates are quoted as: Spot $/£ 1.5326 – 1.5385 3m forward 0.62 – 0.51 c pm
“pm” means premium – meaning the $ gets stronger, so £1 can only buy fewer dollars which means we SUBTRACT to get the 3m forward rate
MY QUESTION IS: What difference will it make if, for example, the exchange rate is quoted as: Spot £/$ 1.5326 – 1.5385 3m forward 0.62 – 0.51 c pm (Please note: £ 1.5 = $ 1)
Does this also mean the pounds get stronger so we SUBTRACT to get the 3m forward?
