Line 1: Line 1:
The degree to which changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item that are attributable to the hedged risk are offset by changes in the fair value or cash flows of the related hedging instrument.
''Statistics''.
 
Three times the mean <u>less</u> the median all divided by the standard deviation.
In a situation where a hedge is <u>ineffective</u> (or inefficient) the ineffectiveness may arise from:
 
#Basis risk or basis differences; or
#Differences between the quantum of (i) the hedged item and (ii) the hedging instrument.
 
 
Also known as Hedge efficiency.


When the mean is greater than the median, the distribution is ''positively'' skewed.
When the mean is less than the median, the distribution is ''negatively'' skewed.
