"Any firm conducting business internationally faces global financial risk. Of particular concern is risk associated from foreign exchange transactions or currency related issues. Much of this risk results from the volatility ever present within the exchange rate and among interest rates. There are always other risks though associated with conducting business in a global marketplace. Fortunately there are very clear and decisive steps organizations can take to minimize the risks associated with international business. Many hedging instruments or techniques are available and work well to ensure a company manages risk reasonably."
