Exchange rate volatility can affect your bottom line in many different ways, changing the value of your assets, liabilities and cash flows, especially when these are denominated in a foreign currency. If you have committed to either selling or buying goods or services in a foreign currency and the exchange rate fluctuates between agreement and payment, your overall profit from a particular deal can fall, or in low margin deals, could even be wiped out. Your foreign exchange risk is influenced by many factors such as length of exposure and currency volatility. By managing the risk, you could maximize profits or minimize the risk.

With treasury capabilities in over 60 countries, no one else is better poised than HSBC to provide knowledge and advice to help you better understand the risks at hand. Our dedicated risk advisory team is committed to help you determine strategies for foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk management.
