This subject provides the student with an overview of multinational enterprise finance and trade issues. Particular emphasis is given to foreign exchange risk which is arguably the most important international finance risk multinational enterprises are exposed to. Students are introduced to the mechanics of the foreign exchange market, strategies to predict foreign exchange movements and derivatives used by multinational enterprises to manage foreign exchange risk. In addition, three broad categories of risk exposure specific to multinational enterprises are explained: transaction exposure; translation exposure; and operating exposure.
