Chapter 12 Operating Exposure to Currency Risk 12.1 Managing Operating Exposures to Currency Risk 12.2 The Exposure of Shareholders’ Equity 12.3 Managing Operating Exposure in the Financial Markets 12.4 Managing Operating Exposure through Operations 12.5 Pricing Strategy and the Firm’s Competitive Environment 12.6 Summary

Exposures to currency risk Economic exposure to foreign exchange risk Transaction exposure change in value of contractual cash flows change in value of monetary assets & liabilities Operating exposure change in value of noncontractual cash flows change in value of real assets Equity exposure to foreign exchange risk Net monetary assets exposed to currency risk plus the operating exposure of real assets

The law of one price revisited In an integrated market purchasing power parity holds so that equivalent assets trade for the same price regardless of where they are traded In a completely segmented market prices are locally determined Real-world markets fall somewhere between these extremes

Operating exposures to fx risk Revenues Local Global Domestic firms Exporters Local (0) (+) Operating expenses Global MNCs & importers/exporters in globally competitive markets Importers Global (-) (?)

The exposure of shareholders’ equity

Market-based estimates of currency risk exposure DVd/f sd/f sd/f Rtd = ad + bf std/f + etd

An example Ford Motor Company’s exposures rt$ = m$ + b¥ st$/¥ + b€ st$/€ + b£ st$/£ + et$ = 0.060 + 0.02 st$/¥ + 0.01 st$/€ + (-0.01) st$/£ + et$ What is the expected return on Ford stock when… st$/¥ = +10% st$/€ = +8% st$/£ = +8% E[rt$] = 0.06 + (0.02)(0.10) + (0.01)(0.08) + (-0.01)(0.08) = 0. 062 or 6.2 percent

Accounting-based estimates Sensitivities of revenues and expenses to foreign exchange rates revtd = arevd + brevf std/f + etd (22.9) exptd = aexpd + bexpf std/f + etd (22.10) revd/f expd/f sd/f sd/f sd/f sd/f

Managing operating exposure in the financial markets An exporter’s hedging alternatives Sell the foreign currency with long-dated forward contracts Finance a foreign project with foreign debt capital Use currency swaps to acquire financial liabilities in the foreign currency Use a rolling hedge to repeatedly sell the foreign currency

Managing operating exposure in the financial markets An importer’s hedging alternatives Buy the foreign currency with long-dated forward contracts Invest in long-dated foreign bonds Use currency swaps to acquire financial assets in the foreign currency Use a rolling hedge to repeatedly buy the foreign currency

Financial market hedges of operating exposures Advantages Most financial market instruments are actively traded and liquid If financial prices reflect true value, then financial market transactions are zero-NPV transactions

Financial market hedges of operating exposures Disadvantage A financial market hedge provides an imperfect hedge of operating exposure to currency risk The contractual cash flows of a financial market hedge cannot fully hedge the uncertain operating cash flows of the firm’s real assets

Managing operating exposure through operations Take advantage of the MNC’s ability to respond to differences in real foreign exchange rates Plant location: Gain access to low-cost labor or capital resources Product sourcing: Shift production to countries with low real costs Market selection: Shift marketing efforts toward countries with higher demand or “overvalued” currencies

Operating hedges of operating exposures Advantages Operating hedges create a fundamental change in the way the MNC does business and thus a long-lasting change to the company’s currency risk exposure With established international relations, the MNC is in a better position to take advantage of opportunities in international markets Disadvantage Operating hedges are seldom zero-NPV transactions

Pricing strategy in int’l markets An example For the classic Japanese exporter, an appreciation of the euro increases the purchasing power of euro-zone customers Pricing alternatives include Hold the euro price constant Sell the same quantity Bigger yen profit margin per unit Hold the yen price constant Lower euro price Higher sales volume

The price elasticity of demand Optimal pricing depends on the price elasticity of demand = -(DQ/Q)/(DP/P) Measures the sensitivity of quantity sold to a percentage change in price price elastic demand - a small change in price results in a large change in quantity sold, so lower the price price inelastic demand - a small change in price results in an even smaller change in quantity sold, so hold the price constant
