Forward Contracts
Persistent political and economic uncertainty mean that businesses must plan ahead carefully. Forward Contracts are an effective means of protecting your foreign currency exposure from volatility, particularly for future payments or receipts.
Specific Date
Forward contracts allow you to secure a fixed price for buying or selling currencies on a specific date in the future. The price you lock in is determined on the day you agree the amount and settlement date for the forward contract. Forward contracts are particularly useful for businesses that have future payments or receipts in foreign currency because they allow you to protect your budget and profit margins. In this way, they can be an important part of a company’s hedging toolkit.
Spot Contracts
A spot contract is the simplest of all foreign exchange products. It involves the purchasing or selling of currency for immediate settlement on the spot date. A spot trade is done at the current rate at the time you wish to make it and is particularly useful if you need to make an immediate or urgent international payment.
Overview
Spot contracts are particularly useful if you need to make an international payment in an extremely short space of time, as you can deliver the funds to a beneficiary in a timely fashion.
However, using spot contracts without leveraging your exposure with other financial products can be a high-risk strategy. Given how volatile the currency markets can be from one day to the next, it is important to think about the bigger picture.
Market Orders
Market orders enable businesses to target a specific exchange rate that is not currently available. If your business dealings mean that you require a specific price, then you can activate a market order that will secure that price when it becomes available.
Overview
A market order is usually done immediately but you can give additional instructions, such as a limit order or stop loss order. This means that it will be completed at some point in the future, dependent on market movements. Requesting a rate is no guarantee that the rate will be hit, but if it is hit, we guarantee execution.
