what is swaps?

Answer Posted / rohit jain

A swap is a derivative in which two counterparties agree
to exchange one stream of cash flows against another
stream. These streams are called the legs of the swap.
Swaps can be used to hedge certain risks such as interest
rate risk, or to speculate on changes in the underlying
prices.
