Automating FX Risk and Optimising Hedging: A Fresh Look

Wednesday, 6th September 2023

Are you measuring your FX exposures correctly? Is the process highly manual? And is your current hedging strategy really in the best shape? These were all questions the treasury team at medical technology firm Dräger asked themselves before embarking on a transformative project with Nomentia to automate the calculations of its FX exposures and optimise its hedging.

In this webinar, we will explore:

  • How the Dräger team now leverages an automated tech solution to calculate its FX exposures, and extrapolates from actuals rather than using a cash flow forecast
  • The secret to defining an optimum hedge portfolio, keeping risk within the defined limit while minimising total cost-of-carry
  • Ways to ensure smooth integration between new treasury tech and ERPs like SAP
  • Best practice for ensuring buy-in to such a project across the organisation – not just the implementation but learning to trust technology with CFaR calculations
