DESAFÍOS Y OPORTUNIDADES DEL MERCADO GLOBAL DE DIVISAS EN LAS EMPRESAS INTERNACIONALES

Abstract

The main objective of this article is to analyze the challenges and opportunities faced by international companies in the global foreign exchange market, considering that international business is an important channel for expansion and diversification for domestic companies. Within this framework, the key challenges facing companies are examined and three main challenges have been identified: the risk associated with the exchange rate, volatility in exchange rates and the need to form a competent team for such tasks. Previously, various strategic opportunities are explored to mitigate the above risks. These opportunities include conducting speculative transactions that generate arbitration opportunities, the use of financial instruments such as futures contracts, foreign currency financing, international investment and the ability to take advantage of exchange rate fluctuations. As a final result, the importance of providing companies with the necessary knowledge to mitigate the challenges and identify these opportunities and develop effective strategies in the field of international trade and global financial markets is highlighted.
