Abstract This paper contributes to the debate about determining the proper procedures for the conversion of damages calculated in foreign currency into U.S. dollars by offering general guidelines applicable to tort claims. The analysis expands beyond the typical discussion of selecting the appropriate conversion date by examining other relevant economic factors such as exchange rate risk allocation, the application of an adequate interest rate for the calculation of pre- and post-judgment interest, and the implications of the currency in which the plaintiff suffers the loss. While aiming at properly and fairly compensating the plaintiff as the essential goal of the law on damages, the general guidelines for damages conversion presented rely more on economic principles than on legal arguments.

International business has grown rapidly in recent years as companies seek to take advantage of expanding supply chain opportunities. As companies enter into contracts to take advantage of engineering, production, and cost reduction capabilities of the global supply chain, they may be creating a foreign currency exchange rate risk. The quantitative study examined the 60-day EUR/USD exchange rate fluctuation and the use of currency call options to hedge the risk associated with EUR/USD currency fluctuations. The researcher analyzed 13 years of historical EUR/USD currency data and 10 years of actual EUR call options premiums for this research paper. The researcher concluded that the variability of the EUR/USD over 60-days does pose financial risk to a company. The study also found that using currency call options to hedge this 60-day exchange rate risk resulted in an overall transactional financial loss as compared to no hedging. However, research studies have shown that the use of hedging instruments to smooth financial results may result in lower overall financing costs which could offset the hedging transactional costs. This study did not address the benefits of the use of hedging to smooth financial results or obtain other related financial benefits. The researcher recommends that a firm should recognize the exchange rate risks it may be establishing within 60-day EUR or USD payable contracts and develop an appropriate hedging strategy.

International business has grown rapidly in recent years as companies seek to take advantage of expanding supply chain opportunities. As companies enter into contracts to take advantage of engineering, production, and cost reduction capabilities of the global supply chain, they may be creating a foreign currency exchange rate risk. The purpose of this research was to determine the EUR/USD exchange rate risk within a relatively short time frame such as in 60-day accounts receivable and if using currency options to hedge this risk would be financially beneficial on a transactional basis. The quantitative study examined the 60-day EUR/USD exchange rate fluctuation and the use of currency call options to hedge the risk associated with EUR/USD currency fluctuations. The researcher analyzed 13 years of historical EUR/USD currency data and 10 years of actual EUR call options premiums for this research paper.

Objective: This paper is designed to empirically examine the pricing of exchange rate risk in the stock market in Pakistan. Methodology: The study is based on two-factor and multi-factor arbitrage pricing models. The empirical evidences are based on 15 years monthly data from January 1998 to December 2015, for exchange rate, discount rate, inflation, t bill and the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) 100 indexes is collected from State Bank of Pakistan and Karachi Stock Exchange. Results: The results, however, conclude that the exchange rate risk is priced in the stock market. Whereas, the remaining factors such as risk premium attached to foreign currency exposure and the term structure of discount rate appear to have significant effect on exchange rate risk. We can generalize that the exchange market in Pakistan are influenced by the stock market. Policy implication: This paper provides empirical evidence that the risk exposure of exchange rate is largely influenced by the changes in stock market. Therefore, the concerned persons are proposed for the consideration of this issue.

The Exchange Rate

In order to reduce the exchange-rate risk, banks in emerging markets are typically denominating their loans in foreign currencies. However, in the event of a substantial depreciation of the local currency, the payment ability of a foreign-currency borrower may be reduced significantly, exposing the lender to additional default risk. This paper analyses how the exchange-rate risk of foreign currency loans spills over into default risk. We show that in an economy where foreign currency loans are a dominant source of financing economic activity, depreciation of the local currency establishes a negative feedback mechanism that leads to higher default probabilities, reduced credit supply, and reduced growth. This finding has some important implications that may be of special interest for regulators and market participants in emerging economies.
