Importance of a tracking gains & losses in strategic foreign currency management

Tracking unrealized gains and losses helps treasury managers to identify potential risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency rates.

  • informed decisions about future currency transactions, 
  • timing of hedging strategies, 
  • and having a clear picture of the company’s financial health, including potential impact on future income or expenses in financial management.

Top 3 Challenges in tracking unrealized gains and losses

Keeping track of these transactions alongside daily tasks can overwhelm finance and treasury teams, making tracking and analysis time-consuming and challenging.

2. Growing international business

Growing cross-border operations increase currency exposure complexity.

As SMBs expand internationally, scaling technology to manage the rising volume of currency data becomes essential. Static spreadsheets often struggle to keep up with these evolving demands.
