Episode 40
In our latest podcast episode Ivan Asensio from Silicon Valley Bank discusses two recent papers, which he co-authored looking at the impact of FX on firms looking to raise equity and those preparing for an IPO. The results of both, he argues, help to make the case that FX should be viewed as a strategic rather than operational concern within organisations.
Asensio also talks about how the marketplace has shifted to “a new paradigm” where controlling costs has replaced growth as the primary focus, and claims that this makes effective FX management more important than ever.
