  • Determinant Influence on Hedging Strategies
    Determinant Influence on Hedging Strategies A case study of AB Volvo, AB SKF and Getinge AB Degree Project in Master of Science in Business and Economics, specialization in Industrial and Financial Economics, 30.0 credits Authors: Linn Birnbo & Sofie Wernersson Determinant Influence on Hedging strategies Abstract Type of thesis: Degree Project in Master of Science in Business & Economics; specialization in Industrial and Financial Management, 30.0 credits University: School of Business Law and Economics at University of Gothenburg Semester: Spring 2013 Authors: Linn Birnbo and Sofie Wernersson Advisor: Einar Bakke Title: Determinants Influence on Companies’ Hedging Strategy – A Case Study of AB Volvo, AB SKF and Getinge AB Background and Problem: Most internationally operating companies are exposed to foreign exchange risk. Companies who hedge their currency exposure strive to minimize the effect of unfavourable foreign exchange rate movements since it can have a negative impact on companies’ operational results. However, there is no optimal hedging theory that can guide managers to reduce this company specific risk. Due to a lack of knowledge and an insufficient understanding in companies about ways to prevent this, companies constantly need to update and reform their hedging strategies. Therefore, it is important to recognise which, how and why internal and external determinants affect companies’ hedging strategies. Aim of Study: The aim of this study is to explore which determinants have affected AB Volvo, AB SKF and Getinge AB’s currency risk management during the last decade. Furthermore, it should aim to answer how and why the companies’ hedging strategies have been influenced by these determinants.

    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ELEKTA ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21 71 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE / CHAIRMAN’S comment Increased importance and attractiveness of radiotherapy Elekta is a key industrial partner to cancer care and healthcare providers globally. Cancer is the fastest growing healthcare burden in society and the first or second leading cause of death globally. Over the last 18 months the pandemic has forced hospitals and clinics to reprioritize resources and to restrict access for installations and treatments. Elekta has shown strong resilience, both financially and operationally, and has been able to continue supporting customers in keeping cancer care going. Even so, the lack of resources brought by the pandemic will leave long-lasting marks as diagnosis and treatment for millions of cancer patients have been delayed. The importance of cancer care and the long-term attrac- tiveness of the radiation therapy market was underscored by Siemens Healthineers’ re-entry to our industry. This change in the competitive landscape strengthens Elekta’s long-held tradition of bringing diagnostic imaging to radiotherapy and will spur technological and clinical innovations. The role of radiotherapy in cancer care has successively grown “The change in the as clinical and technological innovations brought to market. Elekta has improved patient outcomes and improved precision of both diagnosis and treatment. We are dedicated to continuously competitive landscape improve cancer care and making the treatments better, safer and more effective.
