Managing foreign exchange risk with EDC guarantees . : ED5-12/2014E-PDF

"As any exporter knows, changes in the foreign exchange (FX) rate of the Canadian dollar can present unpredictable risks to your profit margins and cash flow. Fluctuating rates mean more guesswork when you’re working out your budget forecasts, and they make it harder to know exactly how much you’ll get paid when you complete a contract. And when payment terms are long, as they usually are in international transactions, this lack of predictability can become even more of a hazard to your bottom line. This white paper examines the basics of FX risk, and how EDC’s Foreign Exchange Facility Guarantee (FXG) can help you manage it."
