| Summary |
With the advent of the World Trade Organization and NAFTA, foreign exchange now impacts the corporate world as never before. Hedging currency risk - usually through the interbank network - is now a routine treasury function. However, midsized companies (up to $100 million in annual sales) are often shut out of the interbank market because of cost and minimum size requirements. Currency Risk Management: A Handbook for Financial Managers, Brokers, and Their Consultants shows how to capture this business - from the basic concepts of foreign exchange to prospecting the corporate client. The author writes in an easy-to-read style and shows the finer points of foreign exchange and various exchange regimes recognized by the IMF. The reader will learn why exchange rates are a matter of government restrictions and controls as well as market price discovery |
