With rising interest rates and ever-fluctuating foreign exchange rates wreaking havoc on global markets, financial risk management remains a top three priority for treasurers.
More specifically, in the current environment, financial risks have presented treasurers with the following potential scenarios to consider:
- Should floating rate debt be converted to fixed rates? If so, for how much debt principal, over what maturity, and what will the impact be on overall fixed to floating debt ratio?
- Do we tweak the more stable G10 currency programs vs. increase or commence hedging the more volatile emerging market currencies?
- How will foreign exchange (FX) volatility impact our local market competitiveness and longer-term contract pricing
policy? Will contract renewals introduce roll-over risk? - Will the war in the Ukraine continue to negatively impact commodity prices? Should product inputs ride out the
conflict or are longer term contracts the solution?
