Description
A much needed bridge between financial and commercial decision making is provided by this comprehensive coverage of macroeconomic uncertainty. Exposure to macroeconomic events such as monetary and fiscal policies, oil price changes etc, are measured as coefficients of cash flow sensitivity to actual events, or to exchange rates, interest rates, inflation, and prices in such a way that the exposure to each variable is isolated from the exposure to other variables. An important aspect of risk management is the selection of an operational strategy, based on which exposures can be hedged and covered. The basis for such strategy selection is discussed and information needs associated with each strategy are identified.
