A set-and-forget hedging strategy, also known as static hedging, is a budget hedging program where a big hedge is taken at the start of the period and is not reactivated until this period is over. Set-and-forget or static hedging makes sense for businesses with a high degree of forecast accuracy, rarely adjusted and FX-driven pricing, whose customers accept the potential ‘cliff’ created by sharp intra-period currency moves. If forward points are in favour, so much the better.
