Hedging
One basket, built to match your exposure
A single instrument almost never matches a real supply chain. Coased combines currencies, commodities, and logistics instruments into one basket sized to what you actually carry.
Why a basket
Single hedges leave gaps
Buying one FX forward against revenue currency ignores the commodity and freight risk sitting upstream in your cost base. Buying a commodity future on its own ignores the currency the supplier actually invoices in. Each hedge bought in isolation covers one slice of the exposure and leaves the rest exposed.
A basket sizes each instrument against the exposure it's meant to offset, and accounts for how those exposures move together, so the combination tracks your real risk rather than a single piece of it.
Instruments
What can sit inside a basket
| Instrument | Used for |
|---|---|
| FX forwards & options | For currencies tied to supplier invoices and revenue. |
| Commodity futures | For raw materials embedded in cost of goods. |
| Freight & fuel swaps | For logistics cost tied to specific routes and carriers. |
| Interest rate instruments | Where financing terms attach to supplier or customer contracts. |
Maintenance
Rebalanced as your supply chain changes
A new supplier, a rerouted shipment, a renegotiated payment term - each of these changes the exposure the basket was built to hedge. We review and rebalance the basket as your supply chain moves, rather than treating the hedge as a one-time purchase.
