I'm curious to understand how swaps, a complex financial instrument, actually generate revenue for those involved in them. Can you explain the various ways in which swaps can make money, including through interest rate differentials, credit risk premiums, and perhaps even market speculation? I'm particularly interested in the mechanisms behind these profit-making strategies and how they are executed in practice.
