In the current low interest rate environment, there is a continued need for investors to seek returns and pursue investments globally, while managing risk. Currency volatility can pose a risk to investment performance when an investor purchases a non-Canadian asset.

For institutional asset owners, a key decision involves which hedging activities are to be handled in-house and which are best managed externally. There are many factors to consider when deciding whether a given organization has the scale to commit to an in-house currency hedge program – for example, does it have the time, technology and resources to manage a program? Some firms find it easier to meet the BACK TO COVER complexities of currency hedging by outsourcing these areas and focusing instead on their core investment decisions. By using a currency administration service, funds may achieve a higher level of automation and efficiency and reduce operational risk and exposure. Another consideration is whether currency hedging is being implemented on a passive or dynamic basis. In other words, is currency hedging being used to protect funds or to capture the benefits of currency fluctuations.
