Foreign Exchange for Business Trading

Is this the right solution for me?

Our range of product and services can help to minimise your foreign exchange risk. One way to hedge against exchange rate movements is to buy a currency option. This is a more flexible form of hedging than setting up a forward foreign exchange contract.

Currency options give you the right, but not the obligation, to buy a certain amount of currency at a specific exchange rate on or before a specified date. But unlike a forward foreign exchange contract, you're not obliged to buy the currency at the end of the period. To enjoy this flexibility you'll have to pay a premium. The exact amount will depend on the amount of currency involved and the length of the option.

Currencies Direct options suit businesses that:

• Want to protect themselves from unfavourable rate changes while retaining the flexibility to benefit from advantageous ones
• Are entering into a deal and there's a fair chance of it not going ahead

Currencies Direct options can also provide flexibility in managing exposures, enabling you to:

• Protect against any adverse movements in the exchange rate
• Benefit if the exchange rate moves in your favour

Currencies Direct has been working closely with corporate clients for over 10 years and as a result our team of currency specialists really do understand the issues faced by businesses involved in international trade. To arrange your vanilla option simply call one of our team specialists who will tailor make the option to suit your business needs.
