Mondial Change allows you to hedge your foreign exchange risk on the Egyptian Pound (EGP). The foreign exchange risk coverage on the Egyptian Pound can currently only be done through NDF (non-deliverable forwards) contracts. The NDF is a hedging instrument used to cover your foreign exchange risk on partially or non-convertible currencies. At the contract's expiration date, the rate at which the contract was concluded is compared with the fixing rate. The latter is official and published daily by the Central Bank of the concerned country. The NDF price represents the probability of a revaluation (or devaluation) of the currency. Therefore, the NDF price will not be linked to the interest rate differential between the two currencies involved. The NDF thus allows you to hedge your foreign exchange risk without any cash flow being paid in the non-convertible currency. You can schedule a meeting with our trading desk. An expert market advisor will assist you in setting up your foreign exchange hedges on the Egyptian Pound (EGP).

Are there minimum or maximum amounts to set up hedges in Egyptian Pound (EGP)?
The maximum amount of hedges in Egyptian Pound (EGP) that you can validate primarily depends on the size of the forward exchange line granted to you. The line conditions granted depend on the review of your financial statements. Regarding minimum sizes, we generally do not take hedges for amounts below 10,000 EUR (or equivalent in other currencies).
What is the maximum possible maturity for hedges in Egyptian Pound (EGP)?
What are the setup fees for foreign exchange risk hedges in Egyptian Pound (EGP)?
All fees related to the setup of hedges in Egyptian Pound (EGP) are included in the exchange rate communicated to you before the validation of your transaction. The hedging is done by phone with a trading desk operator. No fees are applied to the use of your hedges.
Is a security deposit required to take a hedge in Egyptian Pound (EGP)?
Again, this depends on the conditions of your forward exchange line. Thanks to its network of partners, Mondial Change generally manages to obtain forward exchange lines without an initial security deposit. Depending on your line conditions, margin calls may be triggered on your hedging contracts in Egyptian Pound (EGP) if the EUR/EGP rate (or any other pair on which you have validated a hedge) deteriorates beyond the variation margin or beyond your OTM. In this case, you must deposit funds as collateral to maintain your contracts in Egyptian Pound (EGP) open. Based on the review of your financial statements, lines without margin calls can sometimes be granted.
Are there carry points or discount points on forward contracts in Egyptian Pound (EGP)?
It all depends on whether you are a buyer or seller of Egyptian Pound (EGP) and against which currency you are trading the Egyptian Pound. If we take an example against the euro: If you are a buyer of Egyptian Pound (EGP) against the EUR, then there are report points because the interest rate of the Egyptian Pound (EGP) is supérieur to that of the EUR. Conversely, if you are a seller of Egyptian Pound (EGP) against the EUR, then there are déport points.
