A currency move can erase a quarter’s margin before anyone in the business has repriced a single contract. Yet in many firms only the dealing room reads the exchange rate as a business signal — managers plan as if it were background noise. This masterclass gives executives across functions a working command of the foreign exchange market: how it behaves, what drives it, and how trade, economic and political developments feed through to the rate. The cohort works through FX swaps and options, currency management strategies for domestic and multinational balance sheets, and the economics of the banknote cycle — from forecasting demand to monitoring behaviour in circulation.
