Abstract

This paper argues that it is possible to advise firms on how to hedge against foreign exchange risks only if one has detailed knowledge of the competitive environment they work in. To illustrate this, the authors compare firms' hedging requirements in a number of different standard industrial organizations models, in particular the Cournot model, a model with conjectural variations, price taking firms, and monopolistic competition.
