In the context of Foreign Exchange (FX), the acquisition rate refers to the rate at which a company or financial institution acquires a particular currency. It can also describe the exchange rate at which an entity purchases foreign currency for the purpose of conducting business, managing liquidity, or executing transactions.

‍

For example, if a company in the U.S. needs to buy euros to pay a European supplier, the acquisition rate is the rate at which the company buys euros from a bank or currency exchange service. This rate is often influenced by market conditions, the volume of the transaction, and the specific services of the provider.
