How we help your business

Managing your foreign exposures

Tailored currency exchange and treasury management solutions for businesses, helping you to protect profits and expand your products and services internationally.

Reducing Risk, Driving Growth

Uncertainty has always been a constant contributor to currency market volatility, never more so than the last twelve months in which we have seen unprecedented levels of volatility.  The disruptions from the Covid pandemic along with economic and political turbulence have  caused considerable market fluctuations for sterling and across many currencies. 

 

Any business with a foreign exchange requirement could be putting margins and profits at risk by not having a dynamic FX strategy and plan in place to mitigate currency market risk. The Hawk FX Prime team have helped thousands of businesses take steps to protect themselves from the ravages of currency market volatility.Working closely with our clients, we take the pressure off sometimes overstretched treasury functions, helping them navigate past the pitfalls to helping their business grow.

Risk Management

Deciding whether to hedge or not to hedge currency exposure, is much more than a simple mathematical equation. We’re different because we work as business advisors, not just FX specialists - we look at the big picture, analysing the environment in which you operate as well as market factors. We ensure that we manage risk in a way that truly works for your business.

Identify and Evaluate Exposures

Firstly we look at what currency exposures your company has. We then provide a report outlining the level of risk from these exposures.

Refine Hedging Policies

We take into account your existing hedging and objectives, and make recommendations based on our analysis of your exposures and how you manage your risk.

Put Hedge Policy into Practice

We execute your hedging requirements, using industry leading technology and can produce reports to demonstrate how the outstanding hedges meet your hedging policy.

Review and Adjust

Based on our analysis, we review how well the hedging program is working for you in practice and adjust as necessary. Analysis demonstrates how well the hedging strategy has worked.

 

Please note that we do not provide advisory services in relation to financial products, services or hedging strategies.  We provide analysis which allows clients to make informed decisions based on their exposures.  All services provided by ourselves and our partners or liquidity providers would be execution only services.
