Abstract:

<span>Todays multinational companies face potentially significant economic exposure to changing exchange rates. One way to manage such currency risk is through the use of foreign exchange derivatives. This paper examines how foreign exchange derivatives are used by U.S. multinationals. Recent studies report that the use of foreign exchange derivatives varies across U.S. multinationals and may depend on a variety of influences, including industry membership. We develop a model to explain these variations in the amounts of derivatives used in terms of differences in foreign currency exposure. The results are consistent with our expectations. In particular, the evidenced pertaining to a sample of 654 U.S. multinationals for the 1990-1994 period indicates that the notional amounts of foreign exchange derivatives are positively associated with the degree of foreign involvement, which proxies foreign currency exposure. Moreover, the results are not sensitive to industry membership or other interfirm differences. The findings of this paper are important because they contribute to a better understanding of the foreign currency risk management practices in U.S. multinationals.</span>

Abstract:

The main purpose of this work is to analyze currency risk management opportunities in the industrial company “Snaige”. In order to reach this objective some tasks are set during the work. Firstly it is important to reveal the importance of foreign exchange risk management for the companies that are vulnerable to adverse currency rates. Necessary condition of the work is to measure “Snaige” company’s exposure to currency risk. Using historical simulation and scenario analysis critical point is to compare company’s earnings using and not using hedging. Final task is to assess the benefit for the company on using specific derivatives. Correlation analysis shows that USA dollar, Russian rouble and Ukrainian hryvnia currencies are positively related to each other. Exposure measurement VaR calculation results reveal that currencies with a strong positive correlation have a highest risk and are the most worth hedging. From the historical simulation and scenario analysis it is clear that company will incur huge losses in 2008 if it does not manage foreign exchange risk. Finally, it is important to mention that hedging instruments differ and the choice of using specific derivatives should depend on the current market situation and the foreign exchange risk management policy of the company.<br>Bakalaurinio darbo tikslas yra ištirti valiutų rizikos valdymo galimybes gamybinėje įmonėje “Snaigė”. Norint pasiekti nusistatytą tikslą yra užsibrėžti konkretūs uždaviniai. Pirmiausia yra svarbu atskleisti valiutų rizikos valdymo svarbą įmonėms, kurios yra jautrios nepalankiems valiutų kursų svyravimams. Nemažiau svarbi darbo dalis yra išmatuoti įmonės “Snaigė” valiutų rizikos dydį. Atliekant istorinės simuliacijos ir scenarijų analizes svarbus veiksnys yra palyginti įmonės pajamas apsidraudžiant bei nedraudžiant valiutų rizikos. Galutinis darbo uždavinys yra naudos įvertinimas įmonei “Snaigė” naudojat išvestines finansines priemones Koreliacijos analizė rodo, jog JAV dolerio, Rusijos rublio ir Ukrainos grivinos valiutų svyravimai stipriai priklauso vienas nuo kito. Valiutų rizikos dydžio VaR skaičiavimų rezultatai atskleidžia, kad valiutos, kurios turi stiprų teigiamą ryšį, taip pat yra pačios rizikingiausios ir jas labiausiai verta apdrausti. Atlikus istorinės simuliacijos bei scenarijaus analizes yra nustatyta, jog įmonė, nevaldydama valiutų rizikos, patirs milžiniškus nuostolius 2008 metais. Galiausiai yra svarbu pažymėti, jog valiutų rizikos draudimo instrumentai skiriasi ir pasirinkimas naudoti konkrečias išvestines finansines priemones turėtų priklausyti nuo esamos rinkos situacijos bei vykdomos įmonės rizikos valdymo politikos.

Abstract:

This research investigated 1.how Malaysian public-listed multinational companies manage foreign exchange (FX) risk, and 2.what factors influence the companies' inclinations to undertake particular FX risk management (FERM) activities. Data were collected using questionnaires, from November 1997 to April 1998, from 106 of the 169 Malaysian-owned non-financial multinational companies listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) in mid-1996. FERM practices were measured using 54 research variables that can be grouped into seven categories - 1.management of FX risk, 2.FX exposure type, 3.FERM objective, 4.FERM responsibility, 5.FERM centralisation, 6.FERM policies and procedures, and 7.FERM techniques. While the findings were broadly similar to other studies in developed Western countries, some key differences were noted. Companies in Malaysia, compared to those in the West, seem more willing to manage FX risk, but appear to have less capacity, need, and opportunity, to undertake sophisticated FERM practices. They also seem less able to centralise their domestic subsidiaries' FERM. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify possible predictors and their conditional effects on the companies' inclinations to undertake selected FERM activities, using 23 predictor variables that can be grouped into seven categories - 1.company size, 2.debt and leverage, 3.equity ownership, 4.listing board and sector, 5.FX involvement, 6.intra-company transactions, and 7.perceived FX risk attributes. Notwithstanding some shortcomings in the study, the findings suggested many new predictor effects, and indicated that the most important predictors, in descending order, are 1.FX exposure characteristics, 2.company size, 3.debt and equity, and 4.intracompany transactions. They also highlighted the importance of, and the differences in, the effects of various FX exposure dimensions - particularly, 1.perceived exposure, 2.individual exposure and exposure component, and 3.exposure ambiguity, apart from actual total exposure size.

Abstract:

Successful trading in financial markets is not possible without a support system that manages the preparation of the data, prediction system, and risk management and evaluates the trading efficien-cy. Selected orthogonal data was used to predict exchange rates by applying recurrent neural network (RNN) software based on the open source framework Keras and the graphical processing unit (GPU) NVIDIA GTX1070 to accelerate RNN learning. The newly developed software on the GPU predicted ten high-low distributions in approximately 90 minutes. This paper compares different daily algorith-mic trading strategies based on four methods of portfolio creation: split equally, optimisation, orthogonality, and maximal expectations. Each investigated portfolio has opportunities and limita-tions dependent on market state and behaviour of investors, and the efficiencies of the trading sup-port systems for investors in foreign exchange market were tested in a demo FOREX market in real time and compared with similar results obtained for risk-free rates.

Full text

Abstract:

Forest and wildland fires are a natural part of ecosystems worldwide, but large fires in particular can cause societal, economic and ecological disruption. Fires are an important source of greenhouse gases and black carbon that can further amplify and accelerate climate change. In recent years, large forest fires in Sweden demonstrate that the issue should also be considered in other parts of Fennoscandia. This final report of the project “Forest fires in Fennoscandia under changing climate and forest cover (IBA ForestFires)” funded by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland, synthesises current knowledge of the occurrence, monitoring, modelling and suppression of forest fires in Fennoscandia. The report also focuses on elaborating the role of forest fires as a source of black carbon (BC) emissions over the Arctic and discussing the importance of international collaboration in tackling forest fires. The report explains the factors regulating fire ignition, spread and intensity in Fennoscandian conditions. It highlights that the climate in Fennoscandia is characterised by large inter-annual variability, which is reflected in forest fire risk. Here, the majority of forest fires are caused by human activities such as careless handling of fire and ignitions related to forest harvesting. In addition to weather and climate, fuel characteristics in forests influence fire ignition, intensity and spread. In the report, long-term fire statistics are presented for Finland, Sweden and the Republic of Karelia. The statistics indicate that the amount of annually burnt forest has decreased in Fennoscandia. However, with the exception of recent large fires in Sweden, during the past 25 years the annually burnt area and number of fires have been fairly stable, which is mainly due to effective fire mitigation. Land surface models were used to investigate how climate change and forest management can influence forest fires in the future. The simulations were conducted using different regional climate models and greenhouse gas emission scenarios. Simulations, extending to 2100, indicate that forest fire risk is likely to increase over the coming decades. The report also highlights that globally, forest fires are a significant source of BC in the Arctic, having adverse health effects and further amplifying climate warming. However, simulations made using an atmospheric dispersion model indicate that the impact of forest fires in Fennoscandia on the environment and air quality is relatively minor and highly seasonal. Efficient forest fire mitigation requires the development of forest fire detection tools including satellites and drones, high spatial resolution modelling of fire risk and fire spreading that account for detailed terrain and weather information. Moreover, increasing the general preparedness and operational efficiency of firefighting is highly important. Forest fires are a large challenge requiring multidisciplinary research and close cooperation between the various administrative operators, e.g. rescue services, weather services, forest organisations and forest owners is required at both the national and international level.

Abstract:

This report describes the effects of climate change for Finland from the view of comprehensive security. The report examines both direct and indirect climate security risks as well as transition risks related to climate change mitigation. The report is based on previous research and expert interviews. Direct security risks refer to the immediate risks caused by the changing nature of natural hazards. These include the risks to critical infrastructure and energy systems, the logistics system, health and food security. Indirect security risks relate to the potential economic, political and geopolitical impacts of climate change. Climate change can affect global migration, increase conflict risk, and cause social tensions and inequality. Transition risks are related to economic and technological changes in energy transition, as well as political and geopolitical tensions and social problems caused by climate change mitigation policies. Reducing the use of fossil fuels can result in domestic and foreign policy tensions and economic pressure especially in locations dependent on fossil fuels. Political tension can also increase the risks associated with hybrid and information warfare. The security effects of climate change affect all sectors of society and the Finnish comprehensive security model should be utilized in preparing for them. In the short run, the most substantial arising climate change related security risks in Finland are likely to occur through indirect or transition risks. Finland, similar to other wealthy countries, has better technological, economic and institutional conditions to deal with the problems and risks posed by climate change than many other countries. However, this requires political will and focus on risk reduction and management.
