Foreign exchange sales land best, when conversations move from quoting exchange rates to risk advice. A Treasury Risk Management Solution (TRMS) gives FX sale desks a shared, data‑rich view of client exposures and hedging:
And it does this without unnecessary complexity. With that foundation in unlocking hedging activity for FX sales teams, they generate more timely proposals, build stronger client trust and, in many cases, increase activity.
When rates move, the first challenge is prioritisation: which client should you call first and why? A portfolio‑level view that ranks clients by budget rate, cover levels, maturities and policy flags turns raw lists into actionable outreach.
Hedgebook’s Client Dashboard demonstrates this approach – it sorts and filters clients so sales teams can spot importers and exporters with low coverage in near months, identify contracts approaching maturity, and see where a structured hedge could protect P&L.
Trade ideas should quantify outcomes, not just describe products. Using clear analytics, a salesperson/relationship manager can show how alternative hedging products behave under alternative currency movements.
Good scenario stress testing considers P&L at risk, hedging coverage by month and achievable rates, and can do so clearly and quickly. Hedgebook’s FX Exposure Tool provides these visuals in a clear and concise way.
Timely hedging recommendations requires up-to-date trade data. Hedgebook’s API enables customer’s trades to be reflected into the TRMS in near real-time. Sales teams and relationship managers spend more time on advice and less on admin.
Hedgebook’s Public API supports bidirectional connectivity, including complex option structures, and lets firms build their own analytics from the same source data.
Clients increasingly require independent valuations for mark‑to‑market reporting. Valuations that cover FX forwards and options, includes sensitivity outputs, and produces concise, reporting improves credibility and keeps conversations focused on strategy. Hedgebook’s Valuations Tool delivers independent third‑party mark-to-market with IFRS alignment when required.
