Uncertainty in the market resulting from geopolitical issues, changes in trade and monetary policies, natural disasters could influence production and consumption numbers, which, therefore, influence prices and currencies rates.
It is crucial to keep capitals protected and reduce portfolio volatility. We tackle hedging to insure against market uncertainties, inflation risks and possible negative events. Besides, hedging is a good tool to deal with exchange-rate risk for those companies with costs in one currency and revenues in another.
