1 HEDGING FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK: OPTIONS

2 …the options markets are fertile grounds for imaginative, quick thinking individuals with any type of risk profile. The possibility set is limited only by the creativity of the participants… Huge growth in derivatives markets: from 250,000,000 contracts in 1988 to 1,630,000,000 contracts in 2009.

3 Currency options Currency options began trading on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX) in 1982 More option exchanges around the world,  more currencies and debt instruments on which options are traded  option contracts with longer maturities  more “styles” of option contracts, and  greater volume of trading activity

4 Types of contracts A call option bestows on the owner the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying financial asset or commodity. A put option conveys to the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell the underlying financial asset or commodity. A European option can be exercised once only at the maturity date of the option. An American option can be exercised at any time on or before the maturity date.

5 Why options?

6 3. While futures contracts allow for the exchange of currencies only at the maturity date, some option contracts (know as ‘American-style’ options) allow the holder to trade at the strike price at any time up to the maturity date. The major benefit of using options in hedging is that they can be used to hedge potential transactions, or transactions that are contingent upon something else.

7 Types of contracts Examples  An American call option on spot € :  The right to buy € 1 million for $1.10 per € from today until expiration on Dec 15,  This “call on € ” is also a “put on US$”.  A European put option on Swiss franc:  The right to sell SFr 10 million March 2002 for $0.65 per SFr on (and only on) Mar 15,  This “put on SFr” is also a “call on US$”.

8 PHILADELPHIA SE EURO/$ OPTIONS €62,500 (cents per €) Strike Price JulAugSep CALLSPUTS Financial Times, June 21, 2000 Previous day’s vol., Calls 265 Puts 28. Prev. day’s open int., Calls 4,111 Puts 888 Contract specifications The buyer of this call option would expect to pay 62,500  $ = $1, plus commission charges. Consider the August 2000 €/$ call option with a strike price of $0.96. The closing price was $ per €.

12 European Call and Put Payoff = c T = ??? What if S T = $/Euro? Do not exercise call. If you do, you end up with losses. Payoff = 0$ Profit = ,500 * = $ Loss = $

33 Option which would generate profit if exercised immediately is said to be in the money.

34 In the money: S t >X for Calls and S t <X for Puts.

35 In the money: S t >X for Calls and S t <X for Puts. Option which would generate zero profit if exercised immediately is said to be at the money.

36 In the money: S t >X for Calls and S t <X for Puts. At the money: S t =X for Calls and S t =X for Puts.

37 In the money: S t >X for Calls and S t <X for Puts. At the money: S t =X for Calls and S t =X for Puts. Option which would generate losses if exercised immediately is said to be out of the money.

38 In the money: S t >X for Calls and S t <X for Puts. At the money: S t =X for Calls and S t =X for Puts. Out of the money: S t X for Puts.

100 American Put and Call

101 First of all, American call is more expensive than European call and American put is more expensive than European put. C > c and P > p Why? American style options can be exercised at any time before the date of maturity…which means that they can be AT LEAST exercise the same day as European option is exercised. Having American option gives you more freedom. You have to pay for that!

102 Exotic Options Bermudan Option - early exercise is restricted to certain dates during the life of option. Forward Start Option - options that are paid for now but will start at some time in the future. Employee incentive scheme. Compound Options - Options on Options.

103 Exotic Options “As You Like It” Option - the holder can choose if option is call or put. Barrier Option - the payoff depends on whether the exchange rate reaches a certain level during a certain period of time. Cash-or-Nothing Option - pays off nothing is the stock price ends up above the strike price and pays off cash if it ends up above the strike price.

104 Exotic Options

105 Policy matters As with any derivatives market, a generic question is whether the existence of the option market leads to negative spillover effects, such as an increase in the volatility of the underlying asset. A related public policy concern is the risk to which option traders are exposed and how the capital requirements for those risks should be measured.
