Currency Hedge - KAWASEHEDGE
<br /> A method used to reduce exchange rate risk when incorporating foreign currency-denominated assets. When incorporating foreign currency-denominated assets, exchange rate risk is involved and the investment is directly affected by exchange rate fluctuations. In particular, when the yen is strong, the asset value can decrease significantly, but a method called currency hedging is used to reduce exchange rate risk. Currency hedging incurs costs, and depending on the trends in exchange rates and interest rates, these costs may be higher than expected.
