Line 1: Line 1:
The risk that arises from a change in currency rates. 
Designated-time Net Settlement.
 
This can take the form of:
#a receipt/payment of more or less home currency than expected when a transaction is settled (transaction risk)
#a change in asset/liability values in a balance sheet, profit /loss in an income statement (translation risk), or
#a change in competitiveness as rates change relative to buyers, suppliers or competitors (economic risk). 
 
A more complex area of risk concerns contingent, or pre-transaction risk.
 
Also known as Currency exposure or Foreign exchange risk.
