What causes currency values to fluctuate?

The simple answer to this complex question is that supply and demand determines the value of a currency. If demand is high, the value rises, and vices versa. Factors that affect supply and demand include the following: Interest rates
When a country's interest rates are high relative to elsewhere, money tends to flow into that country as investors and speculators seek to take advantage of the higher interest rates. This "interest differential" boosts the demand for the currency and can cause its value to rise.
Inflation
The causes of inflation are much debated – foreign debt and the increased taxation needed to service it; using high interest rates to attract foreign currency deposits and consequently inflating the cost of money; too much money in circulation causing the currency’s value to decline. When inflation is high, a country becomes less competitive in international markets, causing a drop in exports and a rise in imports, which tends to push the currency downwards. All else being equal, when a country’s central bank prints more money, inflation goes up and the exchange rate (the price of the currency) goes down.
Balance of trade

If a country runs a substantial trade surplus, the result of other countries wanting its exports, a large demand for its currency usually follows and therefore the currency’s value should appreciate. By contrast, if a country relies more on imports and runs a large trade deficit, it must sell its currency to buy someone else’s goods. This puts downward pressure on the currency and usually causes it to lose value.
Economic growth
Countries experiencing a deep recession often find that their exchange rate is weakening. Traders in the currency markets may take the slow growth to be a sign of general economic weakness and "mark down" the value of the currency as a result. On the other hand, economies with strong "export-led" growth may see their currency's rise in value. Market speculators
When speculators decide, based on special factors such as political events or changing commodity prices, that a currency is going to fall in value, they sell that currency and buy those that they anticipate will rise in value. This can have a significant effect on a currency. Governments are limited as to what they can do to offset the power of speculators because they generally have limited reserves of foreign currencies compared to daily turnovers in the FX market.
Government budget deficits/surpluses

If a government runs a deficit, it has to borrow money, by selling bonds. If it can’t borrow enough from its own citizens, it must sell to foreign investors. That means selling more of its currency, driving the price down. Statistics on all these items are reported on a regular basis. The precise date and time of the data releases are well known to the market in advance and exchange rates can move accordingly.
What is the difference between speculating and hedging in foreign exchange?
Hedging is insurance, its purpose to minimize risk and protect against negative events. In the forex market, hedging can be used to mitigate the effects of currency fluctuations. Thus, a business importing from overseas could purchase a forward contract in the amount of its payable for a future shipment, locking in at the current rate of exchange between, say, the English pound and the US dollar. This hedges the business from unfavorable changes in that exchange rate between now and the date when payment is due. Speculating, on the other hand, is not linked to an underlying business transaction. Speculators deliberately incur risk in the hope of increasing their profit.


what we are



The corporate culture of ATW as set out by dedicated management professionals.

Some of our people spend their entire working lives with ATW. Few of the aforementioned brains are industry experts.

ATW grew to its present status due to the excellent initial financial support offered by Andhra Bank. Andhra Bank stepped in when we were in the infant state of our corporate existence. Hence Andhra Bank commands our respectful gratefulness.

At ATW we try to make it a stimulating and happy experience. We put this first, believing that superior service to our clients depends up on the high morale of our men and women. We try to help them make the best of their talents. We invest an awful lot of time and thoughts in training - perhaps more than any one else.

Gentle & pleasing Manners, Hard Work We don't like rigid pecking orders. We give our executives an extraordinary degree of independence, in the belief that freedom stimulates initiatives. We dislike issuing orders; men and women who don't have to be told what to do produce the best results. We like people who are honest. Honest in argument, honest with clients, honest with suppliers, honest with the company - and above all, honest with customers.
