Access to emerging market currencies can often be a challenge due to their non-convertibility.

In this Web Seminar, ASPE will examine how forward FX prices are derived in general and then apply this knowledge to the main mechanism available to hedge non-convertible currencies: Non-Deliverable Forwards. We will discuss how the NDF market works, what currencies (countries) use this mechanism and what the associated risks would be.

At the conclusion, participants will have a solid general understanding of this market and how they may use it for their own hedging needs.
