Hedging Foreign Exchange Risk in DKK - Danish Krone
Foreign Exchange Risk in Danish Krone (DKK)
When conducting transactions with Denmark, you may need to send payments or receive payments in Danish Krone. You are then naturally exposed to foreign exchange risk. Indeed, between the time you invoice your client in DKK and the time you collect the DKK, or conversely between the time your supplier issues their invoice in DKK and you settle this invoice in DKK, the EUR/DKK rate may have moved in your favor or against you. It is to eliminate or minimize this risk of EUR/DKK rate movement (assuming your accounting currency is EUR) over a specified period that you can implement hedges on the EUR/DKK. By locking in the EUR/DKK rate in advance, you gain better visibility on your future cash flows in Danish Krone (DKK) and secure your EUR/DKK budget rate.
