Foreign Exchange Risk Management- Which hedging techniques can
be used by a mid-size company (Paperback), by Maria Kavaliova. Since 1973 the exchange
rates of major currencies have been permitted to float freely against one another. This,
along with an increase in the volume of the world trade, has escalated foreign currency
risk. Exchange rate movements have a significant impact on companies engaged in
international trade. In contrast to big multinational companies, that have a broad range
of tools available to reduce their foreign currency exposure, middle-sized companies have
only limited possibilities to hedge their foreign exchange rate risk. The aim of the paper
is to examine all available hedging techniques that can be utilized by a middle-sized
company and to analyse the impact of an effective foreign exchange risk management on the
value of the company. The paper begins with an overview of the foreign exchange market and
detailed analysis of models that are used to make short-, medium- and longterm exchange
rate forecasts. Further on, the book examines the impact of FX hedging procedures on the
company and presents pro and counterarguments of corporate hedging. Finally, different
internal and external hedging techniques are examined in order to make recommendations on
when a particular hedging technique should be used. Information.
