Glossaire

An FX Policy Template is a document that sets out a firm’s strategic objectives in terms of currency management, as well as the goals of its hedging program or combination of programs. The FX Policy Template also enumerates the resources allocated to the finance team in order to execute FX hedging. In firms that automate part or most of their FX hedging, the FX Policy Template should provide a detailed ‘FX Workflow’ framework, a step-by-step description of the procedures involved in the pre-trade, trade and post-trade phases of the FX hedging execution.
