When investors participate in global markets, they take on exposure to currency markets. When an investor has investments and clients in multiple currencies, maintaining an accurate hedge can be extremely difficult with much to juggle. Hedging Wisely: A Non-Expert’s Guide to Expertly Hedging Currency Risk serves as a guide to how to choose, implement, and maintain a hedging strategy.
Readers will be empowered to implement their own effective currency hedging strategy; all those involved in investment will be able to participate in global markets regardless of their level of currency expertise. Using practical examples and case study sections, readers will be able to create their own tailored approach to mitigating this risk, and to have their misconceptions regarding the complexities of currency hedging removed.
Chapters feature:
• How to embrace technology;
• Removing uncertainty from currency risk;
• Currency exposure management as a selling point;
• How to integrate hedging currency risk into your skillset; and
• Questions to ask your financial advisor.
Hedging Wisely encourages readers to better measure, monitor and harness their own skills, demonstrating how they can use their newfound knowledge as a competitive advantage.
