Description:
Why should Irish SMEs actively manage their currency exposures? With the UK scheduled to leave the European Union on 31 October 2019, continued uncertainty on the prospects for a Brexit deal is causing volatility on currency markets, particularly with the euro/sterling exchange rate. Weak sterling is a major concern for Irish exporters to the UK. Since the Brexit vote, the value of sterling has depreciated approximately 13% against the euro and is expected to remain volatile as political and economic uncertainties continue. Similar levels of volatility have been observed in the euro/US dollar rate.Corporate name:
