Why EUR/USD movements matter

Exchange rates can move between the date a transaction is agreed and the date a payment is made. For companies dealing in EUR and USD, these movements can create uncertainty around costs, margins, revenues and future cash flow.

01

Future Payments

A business expecting to purchase USD or EUR in the future may face a higher cost if the exchange rate moves against the transaction before settlement.

02

Revenue Exposure

Businesses receiving USD or EUR revenue can experience changes in the value of their income when it is converted into their reporting or operating currency.

03

Margin Protection

Where currency movements can affect transaction margins, a structured FX strategy can help businesses improve predictability around future costs and revenues.

Reduce uncertainty around future exchange rates

If your business knows that it will need to buy or sell EUR or USD at a future date, leaving the transaction completely exposed to currency movements can make budgeting and forecasting more difficult.

A forward contract may allow an eligible business to agree an exchange rate for a future transaction, helping provide greater certainty over the underlying currency cost or receipt.

The appropriate solution depends on your individual circumstances, transaction requirements and risk objectives.

What can influence the EUR/USD exchange rate?

EUR/USD can be influenced by a range of economic and financial factors. Understanding these drivers can help businesses identify potential areas of currency exposure when planning future international payments.

01

Interest Rates

Differences between European Central Bank and US Federal Reserve monetary policy can influence relative demand for EUR and USD.

02

Economic Growth

Changes in economic growth, business activity, employment and trade across the Eurozone and United States can influence expectations for the two currencies.

03

Inflation & Economic Data

Inflation, employment, GDP and other economic indicators can influence monetary policy expectations and contribute to movements in EUR/USD.
