Currency Hedging
Manage exchange rate exposure directly within your trading system
Commodity trading involves multiple currencies. A contract priced in USD or GBP today may be invoiced weeks or months later – by which time the exchange rate could have moved significantly. That difference hits your margin directly.
The Currency Hedging module in Qbil-Trade lets you record and manage currency hedges within the same system as your contracts. No separate spreadsheets, no manual reconciliation – your FX exposure is always visible in the context of your trading activity.
Direct link between hedge and contract
Every hedge record in Qbil-Trade is linked directly to the relevant purchase contract or sales contract. You record the agreed rate, amount, duration, and bank at hedge level. That data flows through to your financial reporting and P&L – without extra steps.
Need to partially cover a large contract? Record multiple hedges against one contract and view the hedged and unhedged portions separately in your P&L. That keeps your total currency position clear at all times.
Real-time overview of open positions
Qbil-Trade includes a built-in hedging report that shows all active hedge positions across your contracts. Closed hedges are excluded automatically, so the overview stays current – without manual clean-up.
That gives treasury, finance, and management a clear picture of active currency exposure, at any point in time.
Currency Risk. Fully Visible.
No disconnected spreadsheets.
No manual reconciliation.
Just a clear overview of your actual currency exposure — directly within your trading process.
Part of an integrated financial overview
The Currency Hedging module sits within the Finance functionality in Qbil-Trade, alongside Debtor Control, Credit Control, financial exports, and reporting. Trading, operations, and finance work from one system – with one current view of open positions, outstanding invoices, and margin results per contract.
Access to the module is managed through Qbil-Trade’s standard permission model. You decide which users can view, create, or manage hedges.
Still managing currency risk outside your ERP?
Many trading companies handle FX exposure in spreadsheets alongside their system. That leads to fragmented data, error-prone reconciliation, and limited visibility when it matters most.
The Currency Hedging module in Qbil-Trade brings that risk management back into the core of your trading process.
