Besides a current or spot price for currencies (or monies) and spot markets, there are futures markets, where futures ( or forward) prices are determined by buying and selling futures contracts. Also, a large volume of forward contracts is made directly between participants in the foreign exchange markets. Spot transactions require the exchange of deposits by two days after the date of the contract. Forward transactions require an exchange of deposits at specified longer maturities on the forward contract. There are standardized maturities of three months, six months, and one year, and on major currencies, longer contracts are sometimes available. Banks, acting as financial intermediaries, make available forward contracts tailored exactly to their customers needs, such as 46-day maturity.
If the spot price is below the forward price, the currency is said to be at a forward premium. If the spot price is above the forward price, the currency is said to be at a forward discount.
Both spot and forward markets for currencies are subject to control and intervention by governments. The governments may step in to support their domestic currency by buying it. They may impose exchange controls on the repatriation of profits or interest payments. The risk of loss in forward contracts because of these latter controls can be called sovereign risk. Thus spot and forward markets can suffer from imperfections.
The evidence, however, generally tends to support the hypothesis that these markets are approximately efficient, especially the offshore foreign exchange markets that are free of government controls.
As financial intermediaries, banks can make the maturities of forward contracts infinitely long if their customers expect.

答案
B
解析
第一段最后一句话Banks…make available forward contracts tailored exactly to their customers needs, such as 46-day maturity.而并非可以构造出任意期限长的远期合约。tailored意指银行精心构造符合顾客需要期限的远期合约。
