The Exposure of Long-Term Foreign Currency Bonds

Author

Listed:
  • Adler, Michael
  • Dumas, Bernard

Abstract

A currency is not risky because devaluation is highly likely. If the devaluation were certain, there would be no risk at all. A weak currency can be less risky than a strong currency. A strong currency does not become risky because it has been used to denominate a firm's debt.
