Current TermNon-Deliverable Forwards
Non-Deliverable Forwards
A way to hedge exposures in emerging market currencies where a conventional forward market does not exist or is restricted. Like a conventional forward, a non-deliverable forward makes it possible to hedge future currency exposure. However, in contrast to a conventional forward, a non-deliverable forward is settled in U.S. dollars and involves no physical exchange of foreign currencies at maturity.
