Currency markets are still the most liquid markets, now more than ever. Currencies can be considered a separate asset class for investors interested in multiple markets. As a result, daily trading volumes on international currency markets have tripled since 1992, reaching close to USD 3.2 trillion.
Our teams of specialists, working closely with Crédit Agricole Corporate & Investment Bank, are entirely devoted to serving our clientele in matters of currency and precious metals trading.
This allows us to offer advice suited to each client with respect to their investment decisions and portfolio allocations. Our range of products offers numerous possibilities for portfolio optimisation through a diversified allocation in currencies and access to margin trading based on an advisory mandate.
- Spot transactions are intended for clients looking for a simple currency exchange service and are settled two days following the trade. Personalised hedging strategies are designed for clients who want to optimise and protect their portfolio performance. Futures contracts and options are used to manage the volatility of exposure to exchange rate risk.
Structured products are designed for clients eager to capitalise upon the potentially attractive returns on currency markets while protecting all or part of their initial investment. By arranging conservative options strategies, our teams can offer our clients a source of steady income in the form of option premia. This approach allows us to increase a portfolio’s total return in exchange for, at most, the possibility of a partial diversification with respect to currencies.
We offer sensible advice for allocating portfolio currencies that is suited to our clients’ investment profiles and reference currencies. Opportunistic currency diversification, without leverage, can optimise a portfolio’s return without sacrificing liquidity.
Given the complexity of currency trades and the profound changes currently affecting financial markets, our experts’ responsiveness and understanding of the market ensure that our clients receive a quality service. As a result, we offer privileged access to liquidity and effective management of investments in currencies and precious metals.
