Client Scenario

This client in the Services sector is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a major international group with earnings mostly in the USD. They approached us three and a half years back. We understood their exposures, processes and realized the potential they had for saving costs and earning profits as they did not have a framework for risk management and had not been hedging systematically. Since then QuantArt has provided them full support in their forex risk management and capability building of their team. After we came on board their two other main challenges were resolved. Earlier their revenue was not insulated from the adverse market movement and also the banks were charging unreasonable markups in conversion. QuantArt helped streamlined the process, identified the FX risk, made a risk management policy, negotiated with banks so that our client gets the right rate, and developed a system of hedging systemically to manage their risk. We have also helped them get the hedge lines on favorable terms. In the last three and half years, our client has never lost money on the FX front. We every day advise them on how much, when, and at what rates to hedge.In fact they have had considerable savings. Even during the Covid-19 times, they have done well.

The company needed to protect its revenue with a risk management objective at an uncertain time of Covid-19.
