Capturing Data on Forecasted Transactions  

Accurate forecasting is critical to the company's ability to properly hedge an appropriate amount of 

forex risk. To improve forecasting techniques, consult with the purchasing and sales departments, and 

ask members of the budgeting department how accurate their prior forecasts were. To help manage the 

forecasting risk, consider reducing the hedging ratio (percentage to hedge) and designate and execute 

forex hedges in layers.
