FX Options

Stock market LED image

Give your Business the security of a forward contract, with the added flexibility to benefit if exchange rates move in your favour.

Ideal for a business peace of mind:

  • If exchange rates move in your favour, the exchange rate you achieve is better than a forward rate.
  • If exchange rates move against you, you’re protected and can exchange at your forward rate.

Options explained:

A foreign exchange option is an agreement that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a foreign currency transaction at a pre-determined exchange rate (“strike price”) on a pre-determined date in the future (“expiry date”).

The buyer pays a non-refundable fee ("premium") for the option. If the buyer chooses to exercise the option, they must settle the underlying foreign currency transaction.  No further action is required if the buyer chooses to let the option lapse.
