Program details

Balance sheet hedging - minimizing FX noise in your financial statements

Continued volatility in the FX markets has reinforced the importance of running an effective and efficient balance sheet hedging program for multinational corporates. Treasury teams must navigate several challenges to minimize their FX Gains and Losses, including mismatches in notional or forecast amounts, variances in timing for when exposures come onto the balance sheet vs. when hedges are placed, differences in rates, as well as challenges of aggregating remeasurement data from multiple ERP’s and systems. Join us as we discuss best practices for navigating these challenges to optimize your balance sheet hedging program.

Credits available: 1.4

Learning objectives:

  • Receive an update on the FX landscape, how FX market fluctuations manifest in a company’s financials and how a balance sheet hedging program can reduce this impact.
  • Understand the drivers of residual FX gain/loss noise on the balance sheet.
  • Discuss the trade-offs between risk reduction and operational costs.
  • Become familiar with industry best practices for improving the results, discipline and efficiency of your hedging program.

Leveraging technology to inform balance sheet risk management strategies

Continued foreign currency volatility has increased FX gain/loss noise on corporate balance sheets, while also increasing scrutiny from senior management teams.

  • Learn about current technology tools that are minimizing the time and resources required to manage a balance sheet hedging program.
