Core Services
Protect Your Margins from Currency Volatility
A 5% currency swing can wipe out your entire net margin on an international deal. CurrencyMate provides proactive FX risk management so your profits stay intact.
Types of Currency Exposure
Transaction Risk (Cash Flow Impact)
Occurs when there is a gap between agreeing a price and settling a payment in a foreign currency. A weakening Canadian dollar during that window means the payment costs more than budgeted.
Economic Risk (Competitiveness Impact)
Exchange rate movements that make your products or services less competitive. Affects long-term pricing, market share, and investment decisions.
Translation Risk (Reporting Impact)
Arises when converting foreign subsidiary financials back into Canadian dollars for reporting. Can create gains or losses on paper even if nothing has changed operationally.
