问题如下:
A US company needs 100 million Australian dollars (A$) for one year for its Australian subsidiary, the company enters into a one-year currency swap with an Australian company,which of the following statements is correct?
Statement 1: If USD apreciate relative to Australian dollars, the credit risk of the US company increases.
Statement 2: If USD depreciate relative to Australian dollars, the credit risk of the Australian company increases.
选项:
A.Statement 1 only.
B.Statement 2 only.
C.Neither statement 1 nor statement 2.
D.Both statement 1 and 2.
解释:
D is correct.
考点:货币互换
解析:
期初美国公司支出美元,收到Australian dollars,期中和期末美国公司支付Australian dollars,收美元;如果美元升值,对美国公司有利,美国公司面临的对方违约的信用风险加大;
相反,期初澳大利亚公司收到美元,支出Australian dollars,期中和期末澳大利亚公司支付美元, 收Australian dollars;如果美元贬值,对澳大利亚公司有利,澳大利亚公司面临的对方违约的信用风险加大;
两个说法都正确。
我不理解
收到更多的话,US company的信用风险不是会降低么?
