  20. Plain Vanilla Option • IFC’s transaction exposure is long position. • IFC purchased Canada Call. • Gave them the right to sell U.S dollar and buy Canadian dollars at the strike price 1.40.

  21. Range Binary • A double barrier binary option with knock-in and knock-out triggers. • Binary option in which the payout is all or nothing. • IFC would get $10 million if and only if neither foreign exchange rates of 1.3750 nor 1.4750 trade before the end of March 1998. • Premium: US $ 1.47 million. • Fact: Neither rates did trade. • Result: IFC got US$ 10 million.

  23. IFC’s Portfolio

  24. Evaluation • Over-hedge translation exposure. • Exotic options seem to be speculation. • Lack of internal controls. • Lack of financial risk measurement program such as Value at risk (VaR). • Lack of efficient computer system. • Similar to a hedge fund trading portfolio more than a corporate’s hedging schedule.

  25. Recommendation • Implement Value-at-Risk measurement. • Invest in advanced computer systems. • Do not over-hedging. • Predictable event, use forward contract. • Unpredictable event, use option. • Combine hedging strategy.

  26. Recommendation • Develop clear risk management policy. • Specify a detailed risk management philosophy with procedures and controls. • Use of derivatives should consistent with overall risk management and capital policy approved by board of directors and senior management. • Risk limit policies and monitor of transactions. • Disclose information about their use of derivatives.
