Currency Hedging
Managing exposure to changing exchange rates.
Currency hedging is a strategy used to manage the potential financial impact of exchange-rate movements.

Currency Hedger's role is to provide market access, FX services and support to help clients manage their currency requirements.
Rates & Orders
Managing your desired exchange rate.
Target a Rate allows clients to identify an exchange-rate level they would like to achieve for a currency requirement.
Market conditions can then be monitored against the relevant target level.
Market orders can be used to specify a target exchange rate for an eligible currency transaction.
Availability and execution conditions depend on the currency, transaction and applicable terms.
If the specified rate is not reached, the transaction will not automatically execute unless the applicable order instructions and terms provide otherwise.
Market conditions can change rapidly, so target rates should always be considered alongside your actual payment requirements.
