Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,0, University of applied sciences, Munich, language: English, abstract: The globalization enables companies a rapid expansion of their international businesses. In particular, the former export champion Germany gets higher profits from increased worldwide business activities and sales opportunities. However, while the international expansion reaches daily new records, the risks for international business remain and should be considered seriously. The risks of international business are from different types and include economic, political, manufacturing, currency, and transport risks. For export transactions risk analysis of buyer and buyer's country plays an important role. Based on a thorough risk analysis, terms of payment and terms of delivery in the contract of sale could be developed. Moreover, hedging instruments like advance payment, letter of credit, payment guarantee from a bank, government Euler Hermes coverage, transport insurance and others arrangements could be used for international financing. The object of this study is to learn and understand about international finance and risk management through evaluation of risks and opportunities for international expansion of a medium sized company. Thereby, country risks of Lebanon, Russia and Turkey are appraised using SWOT analysis. Furthermore, differences between political and commercial risks are studied. Various terms, e.g. INCOTERMS, Payment terms, Collection, and Letter of credit, are explained and compared. In addition, pros and cons of repaying of company's loan in Euro or Swiss Francs are assessed. Finally, the possibilities of money transfer inside Europe and to the US are illustrated. Besides the theoretical reflection concrete recommendations are given for the company.

Download or read book Integrated Financial Risk Management written by Christian Nitschke and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2004-05-21 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,7 (A-), Stellenbosch Universitiy, language: English, abstract: The objective of an Integrated Risk Management System is to maximise shareholder value. Shareholder Value is mainly determined by t he Market Value (MV) which is the most aggregated measure for the value of a company. MV is influenced by future cash flows which are exposed by the risk of Exchange Rate changes. This risk can be hedged by using financial instruments such as derivatives or it can be minimized by applying operational hedging which involves strategic considerations like plant locations and sources of input. The business of the company assumed in this case consists of Export & Import trades to a variety of countries as well as of Equity Investments in Africa and Asia. An assessment of the countries and areas shows actual economical and political developments to evaluate the most efficient Risk Management decisions. By looking at the Direct Economical Exposure the extent by which the company is threatened by Exchange Rate changes is examined. Furthermore the Value at Risk approach and the Scenario method is explained and applied to draw a picture of the size and likelihood by what extent the enterprise is exposed to Financial Risks. It is suggested to use the Dynamic Hedging technique to overcome fluctuating cash flows. Another proposal is to apply Multi-Currency Accounting which supports the company to comply with regulatory standards and provide management information to efficiently control foreign business.
Book Synopsis Export-Import Bank: Status of GAO Recommendations on Risk Management, Exposure Forecasting, and Workload Issues by : Mathew J. Scire
Download or read book Export-Import Bank: Status of GAO Recommendations on Risk Management, Exposure Forecasting, and Workload Issues written by Mathew J. Scire and published by U.S. Government Accountability Office. This book was released on 2014-06-25 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im) has addressed recommendations GAO made in two 2013 reports that related to processes for estimating losses, managing financial risks, and forecasting outstanding financial commitments (exposure). In these reports, GAO found weaknesses in the processes, including limitations in Ex-Im's data and models. Based on accounting standards for federal credit agencies, federal banking regulator guidance, and federal internal control standards, GAO made six recommendations that Ex-Im subsequently implemented. For example, GAO recommended that Ex-Im • assess whether it was using the best available data for adjusting loss estimates for long-term credit transactions to account for global economic risk. In November 2013, Ex-Im replaced a 1-year forecast of global economic conditions it used in its loss estimation model with a 5-year forecast. • retain point-in-time data on credit performance to conduct analyses to compare the performance of newer and more seasoned business at comparable points. Ex-Im began retaining such data in fiscal year 2013. • report to Congress on scenarios used for and results of stress tests on its portfolio. In September 2013, Ex-Im began including this information in quarterly reports to Congress on the bank's default rates. • assess the sensitivity of its exposure forecast model to key assumptions and estimates and identify and report the range of forecasts these analyses produced. In response, Ex-Im created additional statistical models to validate its forecasts and provided a range of estimates. Ex-Im also has begun to address two recommendations in GAO's 2013 reports concerning the bank's workload. In a March report, GAO found Ex-Im faced potential operational risks because administrative budgets and staff levels had not kept pace with growth in its portfolio and Ex-Im had not formally determined the level of business it could properly manage. In a May report, GAO found the Business Plan provided limited analysis of the adequacy of Ex-Im's resources and ability to meet congressional mandates for credit transactions supporting small business and renewable energy. Based in part on federal internal control standards, GAO recommended that Ex-Im develop benchmarks to monitor and manage workload levels and provide Congress with more information on resources associated with meeting the mandates. To help address the recommendations, Ex-Im hired a contractor to develop workload benchmarks and a workload modeling tool. As of June 2014, this effort was ongoing. As a result, the two recommendations remain open. While Ex-Im has been responsive to GAO's recommendations, it is important to note that GAO has ongoing work examining other aspects of Ex-Im operations. Furthermore, managing a large export financing portfolio and its associated risks is challenging. Therefore, it will be important for Ex-Im to sustain the improvements it has made, effectively implement future audit recommendations, and carefully manage emerging risks. Why GAO Did This Study: Ex-Im helps U.S. firms export goods and services by providing a range of financial products. The Export-Import Bank Reauthorization Act of 2012 increased the statutory ceiling on the agency's total exposure to $140 billion in 2014. As a condition of raising the exposure limit, the act required Ex-Im to prepare a report with a Business Plan and analyses of key operational elements. The act also mandated GAO to evaluate the effectiveness of Ex-Im's risk management and analyze its Business Plan. GAO reported on these issues in March and May 2013, respectively (see GAO-13-303 and GAO-13-620 ). In the reports, GAO made a total of eight recommendations—to which Ex-Im agreed. This testimony is based on GAO's March and May 2013 reports. It discusses actions Ex-Im has taken in response to GAO recommendations on (1) estimating losses, managing financial risks, and forecasting exposure levels; and (2) managing and reporting on its workload. For the 2013 reports, GAO analyzed Ex-Im's financial data, policies and procedures, Business Plan, and processes for calculating program costs and loss reserves. GAO also interviewed Ex-Im officials and other entities involved in export financing.

Book Synopsis Export-Import Bank: Recent Growth Underscores Need for Improved Risk Management and Reporting by : Mathew J. Scire
Download or read book Export-Import Bank: Recent Growth Underscores Need for Improved Risk Management and Reporting written by Mathew J. Scire and published by U.S. Government Accountability Office. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ex-Im's Business Plan concluded that the exposure limits in the Reauthorization Act were appropriate, but GAOs May 2013 report found weaknesses in the methodology Ex-Im used to justify that conclusion. The Reauthorization Act increased the Ex-Im exposure limit to $120 billion in 2012, with provisions for additional increases to $130 billion in 2013 and $140 billion in 2014. Ex-Im forecast that its year-end exposure would be $120.2 billion in 2013 and $134.9 billion in 2014, below the congressionally determined limits. However, the buffer between the exposure limit and Ex-Im's exposure forecast for 2013 and 2014 is small in comparison with recent historical experience. GAOs March report found that Ex-Im has been developing a more comprehensive risk-management framework, but could take additional steps to improve this process. For example, Ex-Im has started addressing recommendations by its Inspector General (IG) about portfolio stress testing, thresholds for managing portfolio concentrations, and risk governance. GAOs review indicated that the IGs recommendations represent promising techniques that merit continued attention. In addition, GAO concluded that reporting stress testing scenarios and their results would aid congressional oversight and be consistent with internal control standards for effective external communication. However, Ex-Im could further improve its risk management, including its risk modeling. Ex-Im calculates credit subsidy costs and loss reserves and allowances with a loss estimation model that uses historical data and takes credit, political, and other risks into account. Consistent with industry practices, Ex-Im added factors to the model in 2012 to adjust for circumstances that may cause estimated credit losses to differ from historical experience. Ex-Im also could improve its analysis of the financial performance of its portfolio. As of December 2012, Ex-Im reported an overall default rate of less than 1 percent. Ex-Ims default rate declined steadily from about 1.6 percent as of September 30, 2006, to just under 0.3 percent as of September 30, 2012, before edging up slightly by the end of the calendar year. However, this downward trend should be viewed with caution because Ex-Ims portfolio contains a large volume of recent transactions that have not reached their peak default periods. Moreover, Ex-Im has not maintained data needed to compare the performance of newer books of business with more seasoned books at comparable points in time, a type of analysis recommended by federal banking regulators. Why GAO Did This Study: This testimony discusses GAO's recent work on the U.S. Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im). Ex-Im serves as the official export credit agency of the United States and helps U.S. firms export goods and services by providing a range of financial products, including direct loans, loan guarantees, and insurance. Ex-Im's business volume has grown dramatically in recent years. From 2008 through 2012, Ex-Im's exposure--that is, its total outstanding financial commitments--rose from $58.5 billion to $106.6 billion. Factors associated with this growth include the reduced availability of private-sector financing following the 2007-2009 financial crisis. The rapid increase in business has challenged Ex-Im's ability to plan for and manage its portfolio. This testimony today draws on two reports GAO issued in March and May of this year in response to requirements in the Export-Import Bank Reauthorization Act of 2012 (Reauthorization Act). The act required GAO to assess aspects of Ex-Im's risk management and 2012 Business Plan in the context of the agency's growth. The act also increased the statutory ceiling on the agency's total exposure (exposure limit). This testimony discusses Ex-Im's efforts to (1) forecast exposure levels, (2) manage financial risks and estimate losses, and (3) manage its workload.

Book Synopsis How Firms in Developing Countries Manage Risk by : Jack D. Glen
Download or read book How Firms in Developing Countries Manage Risk written by Jack D. Glen and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers the use of risk management techniques and instruments by firms in developing countries. Increased financial market volatility in recent years has led to the development of a number of new financial instruments for managing the risks associated with specific transactions. In most developing countries, however, firms face substantial obstacles to using these instruments. Despite that, developing country managers are becoming more and more aware of the need to manage risk. In many cases, they have turned to the International Finance Companies as a source of information on risk management and for assistance in accessing new risk management instruments. In addition to the financial risks that often accompany transactions, many firms in developing countries suffer from exposure to other economic risks, especially the risk of long-runovervaluation/undervaluation of their local currency. This type of exposure is more difficult to measure and manage than purely transactional exposures, but can have very significant effects oncompetitiveness. Unlike the management of transaction exposure, which most often involves use of financial instruments, management of economic exposure requires operational and marketing strategies in order to be effective.

Download or read book Taking Stock of Risk Management Techniques for Sovereigns written by Stijn Claessens and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the current state of affairs and thinking on external risk management for developing countries. It tries to identify the reasons behind the limited risk management by sovereigns. Perverse incentives arising from a too generous international safety net, limited access to international financial markets by developing countries arising from low creditworthiness, a limited supply of financial risk management tools suited to developing countries, and a poor supply of skills have inhibited risk management. Another constraint has been the limited attention given to the strategic objectives for risk management. Going forward, the paper identifies actions by international financial markets, countries and international financial institutions that can help improve risk management.
