North American funds hedge currency risks
The proportion of asset managers in North America who hedge against currency fluctuations reached a record high of 94%, the highest in the past three years. This increase is attributed to the complexities of international trade policies, central bank expectations, and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The survey indicated that one-third of respondents attributed this to U.S. trade policies, Federal Reserve forecasts, and the Bank of Canada, while 31% cited geopolitical risks. The hedging rate increased to 48%, with uninsured funds experiencing average losses of $731,000. As a result, 35% of managers are planning to strengthen their hedging strategies, and an additional 69% are considering starting to implement them soon.
