Abstract

Uncertainty and risk abound in supply chains. One such form of risk existing in global supply chains comes from volatility associated with currency fluctuations—Foreign Exchange (FX) risk. Although the study and practice of using financial hedging instruments are well documented, there are also emerging supply chain strategies firms may adopt for mitigating FX risk. The purpose of this multi-method study is to investigate how supply chain professionals perceive and mitigate FX risk, as well as to measure how investing in supply chain flexibility strategies affect firm financial performance. Using a mixed-method approach based on qualitative case studies and simulation experiments using the lens of Real Option Theory, we are able to show how investments in supply chain flexibility strategies can mitigate FX risk in terms of cash flows and profits. Theoretical, methodological, and managerial implications are provided for better understanding FX risk in the emerging supply chain finance discipline.

供应链灵活性降低外汇风险敞口:实物期权分析
供应链中的不确定性和风险比比皆是。全球供应链中存在的一种风险来自与货币波动相关的不稳定性--外汇(FX)风险。尽管使用金融套期保值工具的研究和实践已被充分记录,但企业还可以采取新的供应链战略来降低外汇风险。本研究采用多种方法,旨在调查供应链专业人士如何看待和缓解外汇风险,以及衡量投资供应链灵活性战略对公司财务业绩的影响。通过使用基于定性案例研究的混合方法和使用实物期权理论视角的模拟实验,我们能够说明供应链灵活性战略投资如何在现金流和利润方面降低外汇风险。这为更好地理解新兴供应链金融学科中的外汇风险提供了理论、方法和管理方面的启示。
