How FX Providers Can Help Prepare You for Market Motion
07-01-2021 | treasuryXL | XE |
Currency market moves caught you off-guard? You’re not alone. By working with a knowledgeable FX provider, you can minimize the effects on your business.
No matter when you check, the currency markets are constantly moving. Currency values are subject to drastic change seemingly at the drop of a hat.
Volatility in the financial markets isn’t random; changes in currency values are a direct result of real-world factors. Examples of the real-world events that can lead to increases and decreases in currency values include:
Natural disasters
Recessions
Inflation
Interest rates
Political happenings
It’s not uncommon for the markets to have slower periods of muted volatility, low interest rates, and steady returns in equity markets. But on the other hand, drastic changes can strike seemingly out of nowhere.
Volatility in the markets can have powerful, tangible impacts on businesses around the world. Corporate finance departments, treasury groups, CFOs, and business owners will be the ones left to face the consequences.
What could this mean for your business? Volatility in the markets can potentially:
Raise import costs
Reduce export sales margins
Make your product less competitive
Possibly disrupt your business plans for 2020 and beyond.

The difference between the price of petrol at the gas station and the price of oil in the market (Dutch Item)
06-01-2021 | Erna Erkens | treasuryXL |
Dit zijn adviesprijzen. Die betaal je eigenlijk alleen langs de grote weg.Hieruit blijkt dat de inkoop van de diverse onderdelen maar een beperkt deel uitmaakt van de prijs door de accijns en de BTW. Blijft bij mij toch nog de vraag hangen waardoor prijsstijgingen altijd sneller te zien zijn aan de pomp dan prijsdalingen? Een totaal antwoord heb ik bij mijn zoektocht niet gevonden. Wel wat er nog meer van invloed is behalve de accijns en BTW toevoeging.
Zo zie je maar dat de olieprijs wel belangrijk is voor onze benzineprijs, maar dat er nog heel veel dingen van invloed zijn op onze benzineprijs. En een stijging van de olieprijs wordt gek genoeg altijd sneller ingeprijsd, dan de daling. Maar die extra centen zijn dan voor de pomphouder en die verdienen er maar mondjesmaat aan. Er is toch iets geks aan de hand. In de vorige crisis was de olieprijs hoger dan nu maar de benzineprijs lager dan nu. Dat werd niet gecompenseerd door het koersverschil. Zo blijven er altijd bijzondere verschillen.
