Interest rate swaps have been used by borrowers to change the nature of their loans' interest rates. This type of derivative instrument synthetically transforms a floating rate to a fixed rate. Companies also utilize this technique in managing their finances. Swaps are often used for speculating in the stock market, decreasing funding costs, matching assets and liabilities and as a tool for risk management.
