How is exchange rate a financial risk?
• Mr. ABC is an exporter and has to receive USD 5 million as payment for his exported
goods next month. If today USD-INR rate is 55.60, Mr. ABC is expecting to receive
INR 27.8 Crs. (5*10^6*55.60 = 27.8 Cr).
• By the time of payment delivery, if USD-INR moves to 57.30, Mr. ABC will receive
INR 28.65 Cr. He will gain additional INR 0.85 Cr.
• In a situation, USD-INR changes to 53.50 at the time of delivery, Mr. ABC will receive
INR 26.75 Cr. A loss of INR 1.05 Cr.
• In above situations, Mr. ABC will hugely gain or lose basis exchange rate
movement in USD-INR, for which he has no control.
How is currency a risk – more examples...
• Mr. XYZ imports goods. He is expecting delivery of his contract next month and has to
pay USD 10 million at the time of goods delivered.
• If today USD-INR rate is 55.60, XYZ has to pay INR 55.60 Cr. (10*10^6*55.60 = 55.6 Cr).
• By the time of payment, if USD-INR moves to 57.30, Mr. XYZ will have to pay INR 57.30
Cr. He will have to pay additional INR 1.70 Cr.
• In a situation, USD-INR changes to 53.50 at the time of delivery, Mr. XYZ will have to pay
INR 53.50 Cr. A gain of INR 2.10 Cr.
• In above situations, Mr. XYZ will gain or lose basis exchange rate movement in
USD-INR, for which he has no control.
Some more situations -
• Anjali Jewellers is importing 100 KG of Gold, worth INR 30 Cr from US.
• Ruchi Soya has entered in a contract to export Soya Oil to US worth INR 20,000 Cr next year.
• Indian importer ABC partners has deposited USD 5 Million as refundable guarantee deposit
to tie up with US Company for 5 Years.
• Same ABC partners is sourcing business from US every month worth INR 25 Cr every year.
• Indo-Call runs 1000-seat BPO in India and US. Receives $100 per day as servicing fee.
• What happens if the INR depreciates against USD - rate moves from $50 to &52 in a month
And the fx risks -
• Anjali Jewellers’ operating profit falls with Rs 1.2 Cr every month.
• Ruchi Soya’s net income rises by 800 Cr a year.
• ABC partners will receive INR 10 Million extra on conversion of his deposit.
• Same ABC partners’ profit for the year increases to 1Cr for the year.
• Indo-Call receives Rs 60 Lakh additional gain each month.
Problem -
• Firms involved in international transactions face a risk, an unknown gain/loss,
on account of unanticipated changes in exchange rates.
• These transactions are quantified in terms of ‘international exposure’.
• Un-hedged exposures adversely affects P&L of companies and creates
operational hitches like cash flow requirements etc.

• Hedging is thus taking of a position, either acquiring a cash flow or an asset
or a contract(including a forward contract) that will rise(fall) in value to
offset a fall(rise) in value of an existing position.
