Why Hedge Foreign Currency Risk
Tuesday, December 30, 2008
Each entity and/or individual that has exposure to foreign exchange rate risk will have specific foreign exchange hedging needs and this website can not possibly cover every existing foreign exchange hedging situation. Therefore, we will cover the more common reasons that a foreign exchange hedge is placed and show you how to properly hedge foreign exchange rate risk.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Exposure - Foreign exchange rate risk exposure is common to virtually all who conduct international business and/or trading. Buying and/or selling of goods or services denominated in foreign currencies can immediately expose you to foreign exchange rate risk. If a firm price is quoted ahead of time for a contract using a foreign exchange rate that is deemed appropriate at the time the quote is given, the foreign exchange rate quote may not necessarily be appropriate at the time of the actual agreement or performance of the contract. Placing a foreign exchange hedge can help to manage this foreign exchange rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk Exposure - Interest rate exposure refers to the interest rate differential between the two countries' currencies in a foreign exchange contract. The interest rate differential is also roughly equal to the "carry" cost paid to hedge a forward or futures contract. As a side note, arbitragers are investors that take advantage when interest rate differentials between the foreign exchange spot rate and either the forward or futures contract are either to high or too low. In simplest terms, an arbitrager may sell when the carry cost he or she can collect is at a premium to the actual carry cost of the contract sold. Conversely, an arbitrager may buy when the carry cost he or she may pay is less than the actual carry cost of the contract bought. Either way, the arbitrager is looking to profit from a small price discrepancy due to interest rate differentials.

Oil Rises For Third Day Above $40 on Middle East
Monday, December 29, 2008
Oil rose for a third day on Tuesday as traders kept scrutiny on Middle East crude supply amid the Israeli-Hamas conflict, but prices were still on track to end the year down 60 percent, the biggest annual loss on record.
Crude jumped as much as 12 percent on Monday after Israel launched its fiercest air offensive in the Hamas-ruled Gaza strip in decades and prepared for a ground assault, raising concerns that enraged Arab crude-producing neighbors would react.
By 0142 GMT, U.S. crude was up 35 cents at $40.37 a barrel, while London Brent gained 25 cents to $40.80.
However, oil is still heading for a loss of nearly 60 percent this year, its biggest annual fall since futures began trading 25 years ago.
"Now, matters in the Middle East seem to be taking the forefront, overriding the global economic problems," said Gerard Rigby, an analyst at Fuel First Consulting in Sydney.
"I'll keep an eye on stocks and the dollar as well."
Four days of Israeli bombardment have killed more than 300 Palestinians, while at least three Israelis were killed in retaliation by Islamist militants in Gaza.
The conflict also weighed on the greenback, further boosting the investment appeal of dollar-denominated assets, including oil and other commodities.
The euro rose 0.6 percent against the dollar from late U.S. trading on Monday to $1.4062. The dollar declined 0.4 percent against the Swiss franc to 1.0552 francs, but rose 0.2 percent against the yen to 90.71 yen.
But economic worries continue to cap oil gains, with Wall Street sliding on Monday after a failed $17-billion joint venture between Kuwait and Dow Chemical threatened to unravel Dow's planned takeover of Rohm & Haas, one of the year's larger merger deals.
"People are still wary of the global economic problems. There is still pessimistic news coming out of the States," Rigby said.
The economic slump has hit fuel consumption worldwide, bringing crude prices down more than $100 a barrel from a peak of more than $147 touched in July.
OPEC agreed its biggest-ever production cut of 2.2 million barrels per day in December to fight the market's slide. The cartel has cut output three times in an effort to remove about 5 percent of world supply.
Ecuador said it will monitor oil markets after OPEC makes effective its January output cuts, to decide whether to back another emergency meeting by the oil cartel.
A poll of analysts ahead of weekly U.S. government inventory data forecast U.S. crude stocks fell by 1.4 million barrels last week, while distillate inventories rose by 1 million barrels and gasoline stocks increased by 1.5 million barrels.
