Exchange rate targeting is the process through which a central bank intervenes in the market mechanism to maintain the exchange rate at a particular level that they deem as desirable. For example, some countries have fixed exchange rate regimes where the central bank use their net international reserves to alter the supply of currency to keep it fixed or maintain it at a particular rate with another currency.

Target zone arrangements can be seen as being half way between fixed and flexible exchange rates. This kind of exchange rate system therefore allows for relatively stable trading conditions to prevail between countries, and at the same time allows some fluctuation in foreign exchange rates depending on relative economic conditions and trade flows. A fixed exchange rate occurs when a country keeps the value of its currency at a certain level against another currency. Often countries join a semi-fixed exchange rate, where the currency can fluctuate within a small target level. A fixed exchange ratio: the ratio is fixed until closing date.
