Canadian Manufacturing Company Exporting $40 million annually to US, Europe, Australia
Problem
Currency movements lead to numerous missed budgets, lost sales and harmed profits. The company was taking action to protect itself but found information provided from financial institutions, “experts”, and financial articles was far too often wrong and conflicting. This lead to missed opportunities and taking action at the worst levels.
Solution
Castle Currency Management began providing its currency advice via our Custom Currency Strategy Service. Armed with an understanding of their risk tolerance and budget targets we developed specific strategies our client would simply forward onto the currency dealer at their bank each week.
Results
The client has significantly reduced the amount of time and stress put into trying to analyze and manage their currency. Castle Currency Management has added value to each currency exposure. Over the last 3 years our Custom Currency Strategies have added an average of $3,500,000 compared to unmanaged results and $1,400,000 compared to fully locking at budget rate.
