Global economic instability caused by the pandemic and a range of political factors sees us in the middle of a period of significant global trade volatility. This appears set to continue for some time to come.
We are only too aware of the consequences this has for our clients’ supply chains including reduced services, soaring rates, port omissions, frequent delays, equipment scarcity, empty container park congestion, and reduced capacity.
This volatility is also being felt in the fluctuating currency exchange markets. One of the most significant challenges faced by businesses is see-sawing exchange rates. FOREX markets are sensitive to global events and currency volatility is having a significant impact on importers’ income – for some this could mean the difference between a profit and a loss. It can also increase the difficulty of agreeing to overseas contracts. A rapidly shifting exchange rate can mean that a deal that was great when you signed it, appears less so a week later.
It’s important to have all the necessary risk management tools in place especially during periods of uncertainty. By optimizing your business processes around exchange rates you can minimize your vulnerability to fluctuating currency values in a turbulent global economy.
If your business is paying overseas suppliers, selling to a global customer base or looking to protect profit margins, we can help.
