A structure for accounting and for the financial modelling of balances.

The closing balance is calculated from the opening balance, plus or minus the net inflow or outflow for the period.
A market where a currency is traded outside that currency's home country.


The closing balance figure in turn provides the opening balance for the next period.  
For example, US dollars traded in London.




For example:

Last year’s closing balance (20X2) on the balance sheet = This year’s opening balance (20X3)
Potentially confusingly, the term 'euromarket' is also sometimes used, much more broadly, as a general term for the international capital market.


+/-  This year’s flow (in or out in 20X3) = This year’s closing balance (20X3) on the balance sheet
This wider definition includes both the narrower strict definition of euromarkets above, and, for example, foreign bonds.


The movement of the developing balance follows a sawtooth or 'corkscrew' path.
Hence the name 'corkscrew' for this structure.

For example, US dollars traded in London.

Potentially confusingly, the term 'euromarket' is also sometimes used, much more broadly, as a general term for the international capital market.

This wider definition includes both the narrower strict definition of euromarkets above, and, for example, foreign bonds.
