商品敘述:
In Tokyo on Monday, April 24th, 2006, the U.S. dollar fell to a three-month low against the yen, carrying over its weakness from Friday''s trading in New York, where it had fallen more than two yen (1.75%). Mr. Teruhide Osawa, president of OSG Corporation in Japan (OSG), a multinational cutting-tool producer, was following the foreign exchange market on his computer screen that Monday and was very surprised to see that the yen had appreciated 1.75% in one day. He wondered if such a big change would cause problems for the company''s business. Faced with big fluctuations in the yen-dollar exchange rate, he summoned the manager of the Support Center Finance Group, asking him to analyze and report on how OSG''s foreign currency transaction exposure was measured, and how it could be managed. He asked the manager specifically how the company was currently hedging its foreign currency exposures. The Finance Group gave a presentation at a meeting of the board of directors on May 29th, 2006. They explained that in order to eliminate short-term transaction exposure, a variety of hedging methods were available at varying costs to the company. After the presentation by the Finance Group, members of the board got into a heated discussion.
