Forward Points Episode 2: Hedging 101
In our previous episode of Forward Points, Andrew took us through the macros: the challenges and opportunities in today’s global investment environment, and broad industry trends.
Today we’re moving from the theoretical to the practical: delving into FX risk management strategies and designing and implementing a hedging programme.
Andrew will address some of the factors that cause currency volatility, how to set a hedging policy that takes into account your risk appetite and investment parameters, and how some of the hedging tools work.
Please be aware, though, that hedging products - options and futures contracts - are an investment option, and carry a high degree of risk and are not suitable for everyone. You should be sure that you fully understand the product and the risks to determine if it is right for you. Please seek independent advice if you are unsure about the product and the possible outcomes.
