Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the use of portfolio insurance strategies to manage foreign exchange risk faced by investors domiciled in the United States. The investors manage their foreign exchange exposure by purchasing foreign exchange traded options in the futures market, the spot market, or in both markets. Option investment has been analyzed in the domestic stock option literature as part of portfolio insurance strategies. These portfolio insurance strategies examine the impact on the payoff pattern of adding options to a well-diversified portfolio of stock. The addition of foreign exchange call options to a portfolio that contains only the domestic riskless asset adds limited foreign exchange risk. Alternatively, the addition of foreign exchange put options to a foreign exchange holding limits foreign exchange risk. The degree of foreign exchange risk added depends on the relative quantities and terms of the assets and the options in the portfolio. This dissertation examines several hypotheses about the value of three alternative portfolio insurance strategies implemented in the spot market and in the futures market. This research addresses the following research question: which portfolio insurance method is optimal for an investor? The question is examined by testing hypotheses using paired historical returns. The returns are calculated using traded fiduciary calls, traded protective puts, and dynamic replication of fiduciary calls in the spot market and in the futures market. The tests of the hypotheses indicate that the mean returns for strategies in the spot market are greater than mean returns for strategies in the futures market for premium fiduciary calls and discount protective puts, but that futures protective put mean returns are greater than spot protective put mean returns for discount currencies. The fiduciary call strategy has greater mean returns than the protective put strategy in the spot market for premium currencies but the spot protective put strategy has greater mean returns for the discount currency ...

Download or read book Management and Control of Foreign Exchange Risk written by Laurent L. Jacque and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since I first published Management of Foreign Exchange Risk (Lexington Books, 1978), financial innovation-spurred, in part, by exploding volatility in currency prices-has revolutionized the theory and praxis of foreign exchange risk management. Old-fashioned forward contracts have surrendered market share to currency swaps and options as well as to their perpetually multiplying derivatives. Interestingly, forex derivatives now provide a low cost and highly efficient method of transferring risk from the firms that are exposed to risk but which would rather not be (i. e. , risk-hedgers) to those which are not exposed but which-in exchange for a fee-would assume some exposure to risk (i. e. , risk bearers). Perhaps more importantly, foreign exchange risk management, which was once a fairly mechanical task confmed to the international treasury function, is now permeating global strategic management. Indeed, since the demise of the Bretton Woods system of pegged exchange rates, the cost of forex hedging instruments has fallen so dramatically that firms can readily avail themselves of hedging products which can reduce unwanted risk, thereby potentially gaining a competitive advantage over rivals that do not. Management and Control of Foreign Exchange Risk has grown out of a fundamental revision of my earlier work published almost 20 years ago. In the process, my thinking about risk and its mathematics has greatly benefitted from my association with John Cozzolino and Charles Tapiero.

Download or read book The Prudential Regulation and Management of Foreign Exchange Risk written by Mr.Richard K. Abrams and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-03-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines issues in the prudential management and regulation of foreign exchange risk. It begins with measurement issues, notably converting foreign currency items into domestic currency terms, and calculating foreign exchange positions. The focus then shifts to managing foreign exchange risks. Although the key to effective management lies in the bank’s reporting and internal control systems, regulators frequently seek to limit such risks directly. This usually involves limiting the overall open position in terms of bank capital or requiring that capital be set aside against such risks.
