The Avignon Exchange was one of the first foreign exchange markets in history, established in the Comtat Venaissin during the Avignon Papacy. The Exchange was composed of the agents (factores) of the great Italian banking-houses, who acted as money-changers as well as financial intermediaries between the Apostolic Camera and its debtors and creditors. The most prosperous quarter of the city of Avignon, where the bankers settled, became known simply as the Exchange. According to de Roover, "Avignon can be considered an Italian colony, since the papal bankers were all Italians".

  • El Mercat de canvi d'Avinyó va ser un dels primers mercats de divises de la història, establert en el Comtat Venassino durant el Papat d'Avinyó. La Borsa estava composta pels agents de les grans cases de banca italianes, que van actuar com a canviadors, així com intermediaris financers entre la Cambra Apostòlica i els seus deutors i creditors. El barri més pròsper de la ciutat d'Avinyó, on es van instal·lar els banquers, es va conèixer simplement com el Canvi. D'acord amb De Roover, «Avinyó es pot considerar una colònia italiana, ja que els banquers papals eren tots italians». (ca)

Avignon va ser el primer cos legal per regular les transaccions fiduciàries: un estatut d'Avignon, de 1243, conté un paràgraf titulat De Litteris Cambii, «de lletres de canvi». (ca)
