Abstract :
Exchange-rate fluctuations can cause variations in the economic value of a firm conducting business in more than one currency. The paper examines the problem in a mean-variance framework. Strategies are derived for the preferred instrument of exchange-rate exposure management and the optimal degree of maintained exposure.
