Forward Market Hedge: Imports• If you expect to owe foreign currency in the future, you can hedge by
agreeing today to buy the foreign currency in the future at a set price by entering into a long position in a forward contract.

Your firm is a U.K.-based exporter of bicycles. You have sold €2,500,000 worth of bicycles to an Italian retailer. Payment (in euros) is due in six months. Your firm wants to hedge the receivable into pounds.
Sizes of forwards on this exchange are £62,500 and €125,000.

1. The exporter has to convert the €2,500,000 receivable first into dollars and then into pounds.
2. If we sell the €2,500,000 receivable forward at the six-month forward bid rate of $0.80/€, we can do this with a SHORT position in 20 six-month euro futures contracts.
20 contracts = €2,500,000€125,000/contract
3. Selling the €2,500,000 forward at the six-month forward bid rate of $0.8000/€ generates $2,000,000:
$2,000,000 = €2,500,000 × €1$0.800
4. At the six-month forward ask rate of $1.280/£, $2,000,000 will buy £1,562,500. We can secure this trade with a LONG position in 25 six-month pound futures contracts:
25 contracts = £1,562,500

Importer’s Money Market Hedge• This is the same idea as covered interest
arbitrage.• To hedge a foreign currency payable, buy the
present value of that foreign currency payable today and put it in the bank at interest.– Buy the present value of the foreign currency payable
today at the spot exchange rate.– Invest that amount at the foreign rate.– At maturity your investment will have grown enough
to cover your foreign currency payable.

Importer’s Money Market HedgeA U.S.–based importer of British bicycles owes £100,000 to an Italian supplier in one year.– The spot exchange rate is $1.50 = £1.00.– The one-year interest rate in the U.K. is i£ = 4%.– The importer can hedge this payable by buying
and investing £96,153.85 at 4% in Italy for one year. At maturity, he will have £ 100,000 = £96,153.85 × (1.04).

Your firm is a U.K.-based importer of bicycles. You have bought €750,000 worth of bicycles from an Italian firm. Payment (in euros) is due in one year. Your firm wants to hedge the payable into pounds.
– Spot exchange rates are $2/£ and $1.55/€– The interest rates are 3% in €, 6% in $ and 4% in
£, all quoted as an APR. What should you do to redenominate this 1-year €-denominated payable into a £-denominated payable with a 1-year maturity?

• Sell pounds for dollars at spot exchange rate, buy euro at spot exchange rate with the dollars, invest in the euro zone for one year at i€ = 3%, all such that the future value of the investment equals €750,000. Using the numbers we have:
– Step 1: Borrow £564,320.39 at i£ = 4%.– Step 2: Sell pounds for dollars, receive $1,128,640.78.– Step 3: Buy euro with the dollars, receive €728,155.34.– Step 4: Invest in the euro zone for 12 months at 3% APR (the
future value of the investment equals €750,000).– Step 5: Repay your borrowing with £586,893.20.

Options• A motivated financial engineer can create
almost any risk-return profile that a company might wish to consider.
• An important consideration when using options is the hedge ratio that we covered in the last chapter.
• Without due consideration of the hedge ratio, the careless use of options can undo attempts at hedging.

Using Options to Hedge: Exports• A British exporter who is owed €100,000 in one period has
many choices:– Buy call options on the pound with a strike in dollars while
also buying put options on the euro with a strike in dollars.– Buy call options on the pound with a strike in euros.– Buy put options on the euro with a strike in pounds.
• For any options market hedge, the exporter should consider the hedge ratio to know how many options are needed.
• To see why, let’s consider some at-the-money currency options.

Using Options to Hedge: Exports• Consider an at-the-money put option on €10,000 with a strike
price in pounds sterling.• The current spot exchange rate is S0(£/€) = £0.80/€ and • Interest rates in pounds and euro are i£ = 15½% and i€ = 5%. • In the next year, suppose that there are two possibilities:
– S1u(£/€) = £1.00/€ or– S1d(£/€) = £0.75/€

Options Market Cross-Currency HedgeAt first it seems logical that a British exporter with a €100,000 receivable should buy 10 put options on €10,000—but that doesn’t work well.The hedge ratio of this option is − 1/5
£10,000 = €10,000 × £1.00/€

€10,000 × £0.80/€ = £8,000

With a hedge ratio of –0.20 our exporter would actually be better hedged with a long position in 50PHLX puts.

Cross-Hedging Minor Currency Exposure• The major world currencies are the U.S. dollar,
Canadian dollar, British pound, euro, Swiss franc, Mexican peso, and Japanese yen.
• Everything else is a minor currency (for example, the Swedish krona).
• It is difficult, expensive, and sometimes even impossible to use financial contracts to hedge exposure to minor currencies.

• Cross-hedging involves hedging a position in one asset by taking a position in another asset.
• The effectiveness of cross-hedging depends upon how well the assets are correlated.– An example would be a U.S. importer with liabilities in
Swedish krona hedging with long or short forward contracts on the euro. If the krona is expensive when the euro is expensive, or even if the krona is cheap when the euro is expensive, it can be a good hedge. But they need to co-vary in a predictable way.

Hedging Recurrent Exposure with Swaps
• Recall that swap contracts can be viewed as a portfolio of forward contracts.
• Firms that have recurrent exposure can usually hedge their exchange risk at a lower cost with swaps than with a program of hedging each exposure as it comes along.
• It is also the case that swaps are available in longer-terms than futures and forwards.

Exposure Netting• A multinational firm should not consider deals in isolation, but should
focus on hedging the firm as a portfolio of currency positions.• Once the residual exposure is determined, we hedge that.• Multilateral netting is an efficient and cost-effective mechanism for
settling interaffiliate foreign exchange transactions and thus determining the firm’s residual exposure.
• In the following slides, a firm faces the following exchange rates:

Exposure Netting: How to Double Check Your Answer
• It’s always good practice to check your work.• It’s better for you to find your mistakes than for
your professor to (or your boss!).• You can check your work in exposure netting by
adding up each subsidiary’s debits and credits.• When you’re done, check that you haven’t
destroyed or “created” any money.• A new example follows for practice checking

Other Hedging Strategies• Hedging through invoice currency.
– The firm can shift, share, or diversify:• Shift exchange rate risk by invoicing foreign sales in home currency• Share exchange rate risk by pro-rating the currency of the invoice
between foreign and home currencies• Diversify exchange rate risk by using a market basket index
• Hedging via lead and lag.– If a currency is appreciating, pay those bills denominated in that
currency early; let customers in that country pay late as long as they are paying in that currency.
– If a currency is depreciating, give incentives to customers who owe you in that currency to pay early; pay your obligations denominated in that currency as late as your contracts will allow.

Should the Firm Hedge?• Not everyone agrees that a firm should
hedge.– Hedging by the firm may not add to
shareholder wealth if the shareholders can manage exposure themselves.
– Hedging may not reduce the non-diversifiable risk of the firm. Therefore, shareholders who hold a diversified portfolio are not benefitted when management hedges.

Summary• The firm is subject to a transaction exposure when it faces
contractual cash flows denominated in foreign currencies.• Transaction exposure can be hedged by financial contracts
like forward, money market, and options contracts, as well as by such operational techniques as the choice of invoice currency, lead/lag strategy, and exposure netting.
• If the firm has a foreign-currency-denominated receivable (payable), it can hedge the exposure by selling (buying) the foreign currency receivable (payable) forward. – The firm can expect to eliminate the exposure without incurring costs
as long as the forward exchange rate is an unbiased predictor of the future spot rate.
– The firm can achieve equivalent hedging results by lending and borrowing in the domestic and foreign money markets.

Summary (continued)• currency options provide flexible hedges against
exchange exposure. With the options hedge, the firm can limit the downside risk while preserving the upside potential. – Currency options also provide the firm with an effective hedge
against contingent exposure.• The firm can shift, share, and diversify exchange
exposure by appropriately choosing the invoice currency. • The firm can reduce transaction exposure by leading
and lagging foreign currency receipts and payments, especially among its own affiliates.

Summary (concluded)• When a firm has a portfolio of foreign currency positions,
it makes sense only to hedge the residual exposure rather than hedging each currency position separately. The reinvoice center can help implement the portfolio approach to exposure management.
• In a perfect capital market where stockholders can hedge exchange exposure as well as the firm, it is difficult to justify exposure management at the corporatelevel. In reality, capital markets are far from perfect, and the firm often has advantages over the stockholders in implementing hedging strategies. There thus existsroom for corporate exposure management to contribute to the firm’s value. 8-52
