Our Financial and Commodity Risk Management practice deals with the
strategic risks that Treasurers face in managing a global portfolio.
We carefully identify all of the risk components facing a company
based on geographic presence, transaction flows, financial situation
and risk appetite.
This approach will:
- Clearly identify exposures and document existing hedging
practices. We develop a profile of risk components that may include
underlying exposures in certain contractual arrangements, financing
obligations or investments. Business operational requirements, risk
philosophy and customer/vendor relationships are examined to
assess the "manageable " and "tolerable" components of existing
risk.
- Determine the most appropriate hedging techniques, including
natural offsets, netting opportunities and derivative instruments.
We will work with treasury and accounting to insure that these
techniques are effective from a hedge accounting perspective.
- Develop an operational policy and procedures manual which will
define exposures, set hedging limits or bands, specify approved
hedging instruments and delineate authority limits.
