Problem 7. Assume that you are a US investor who has available $100,000,000 to invest for six months, and that the six-month interest rate is 5% in the US. In addition you know that the six-month interest rate in Italy is 4%. You also observe the following quotations: spot exchange rate USD 0.99 per 1 EUR and a six-month forward rate USD 1.01 per 1 EUR. Where should you invest to maximize the return of your investment? Explain the role of the appreciation/depreciation of the dollar in your answer. Is this forward rate an equilibrium rate? Let's consider that you are the manager of a multinational corporation that is not willing to be exposed to currency risk: what forward rate would be the equilibrium rate that covers against currency risk, given the same spot and interest rates?

Exchange Rate Risk

It is the possibility that the value of a currency will fluctuate in the future. In the wake of globalization, business establishments have increasingly ventured into international markets. The volume of international trade has prospered excellently in the near past and is expected to be more affluent in the future. The use of exchange-traded derivative financial instruments has been multi-folded to provide for the requirements of various MNCs and offshore potential investors. Most banks and financial institutions have helped integrate the global economies. Our Government has introduced some bold and extreme measures to fulfil the purpose behind the fiscal, industrial, and monetary policies. The enactment of GST is a huge step towards streamlining the taxation system of the country. Owing to Covid-19, this aspect of corporate risk management has become critical.
