THE MTFX ADVANTAGE

Foreign exchange risks managed by MTFX

Foreign exchange exposure costs much more than just capital. It affects profit margins, strains supplier relationships, and makes balance sheets unpredictable. Through our risk management services for FX, we help companies handle the main types of foreign exchange risk, reducing uncertainty and keeping business operations stable.

Transactional exposure

This happens when rates change between invoicing and payment. With MTFX, you can secure favourable exchange rates for future payments, set market orders, or use rate alerts to reduce uncertainty and keep your B2B payments stable.

Translation exposure

Translation risk arises when foreign currencies are converted into the home currency. MTFX provides foreign exchange risk management tools that hedge this risk, facilitate smooth reporting, and deliver reliable financial statements to businesses.

Economic exposure

Economic exposure reflects the long-term impact of currency shifts on competitiveness and business value. Through effective FX risk management services, MTFX helps minimize this risk with strategies designed to protect growth and ensure stability
