    Solution

    Forward contracts are typically traded over-the-counter (OTC) rather than on exchanges. OTC contracts are privately negotiated between two parties and are not standardized like exchange-traded contracts. The terms of a forward contract, such as the underlying asset, the quantity, the price, and the delivery date, are customized to meet the needs of the parties involved.
