Speakers:
1. Sharon Constancon: Valufin - Forex Risk Management; how to own, manage and monitor FX risk
Many SACC member companies and UK SME import or export goods or services, being one of the lifeblood streams to the UK economy. Currency rate fluctuations create high levels of stress due to being unexpected, having high impact and not being fully understood. Forex can often be blamed or credited for results in any given year. Valufin believes it is important to truly understand what your risks are, how the numbers flow to the balance sheet, what is the correct strategy for your business and how you can protect key levels and create opportunity without equal risk or complex instruments. We will show you how to manage forex at three levels - strategy and risk control, transactions and instruments, accounting and reporting. 2. Felicia Meyerowitz-Singh: Akoni - Cash Management
