hedge21 is an AI-based decision support system
that computes optimal hedging decisions

to manage your foreign currency exposure.


For CFOs and their treasurers, the second machine age has begun.

Currency exposure management and hedging today is largely supported by software systems aggregating exposure on the one hand - the treasury management systems - and the provisioning of competitive market rates by trading venues on the other hand.

 

But there is a missing link. The process step which links exposure aggregation to the execution of a hedge contract on a trading venue remains a discretionary activity. The treasurer's decision how much foreign exchange exposure to hedge and at which rate till date lacked computational support.

 

CFOs of Large Cap companies know: Hedging is not as simplistic as entering into a hedge contract which mirrors an exposure 1-to-1. A 100% hedge may develop against a corporate over time and significantly hurt a company's bottom line. Optimizing hedge contracts is a cognitive human task which, in order to be automated, requires modern algorithms and scientific computing - such as HEDGE21, the cognitive machine and virtual assistant that is able to make optimal hedging decisions.
