Conscious Currency™
A new approach to understanding currency exposure
November 2010
Most institutional investors have significant exposure to international assets: few institutional investors hedge the currency exposure that this entails. While institutional investors typically believe that this currency exposure has little long-term effect, the reality is that it can be seen as a significant concentrated bet on the behavior of their domestic currency. In fact, for many institutional investors, this single bet on the relative strength of their domestic currency can be seen as the single largest unmanaged bet in their portfolio. In these papers, Russell proposes a different way to look at the portfolio issues posed by currency risk.

Please remember that all investments carry some level of risk, including the potential loss of principal invested. They do not typically grow at an even rate of return and may experience negative growth. As with any type of portfolio structuring, attempting to reduce risk and increase return could, at certain times, unintentionally reduce returns.
