Learn How to Test FX Transaction Hedges Do you test the economic and accounting implications of your FX hedge strategies prior to trading? Testing by definition involves checking the performance of something before putting an idea into practice. This is a prudent and practical step to take when managing foreign exchange risk across the enterprise. When it comes to hedging specific foreign exchange transactions, companies can benefit greatly from testing the most common derivative strategies such as forwards, options, and collars, stress testing the economic scenarios, and comparing the accounting treatment available. By employing this approach, companies can more reliability predict both the cash flow and financial reporting implications of a hedged FX transaction. FX Initiative’s FX Transaction Simulator allows companies to input their ”assumptions" such as exchange rates, interest rates, and market volatility, as well as company specific variables such at the transaction dates, the amount of the transaction, and the desired hedging strategy. Correspondingly, these assumptions are reflected in our proprietary risk analysis model which visually charts the payoff profile of the selected hedge strategy, ranks the economic performance of the alternative spot, forward, vanilla option, and collar strategies side by side, and displays the accounting debits and credits for default and elective accounting treatment.
