Abstract
Options have many practical applications for exporters, importers, borrowers, investors and traders. This chapter examines a number of applications that involve the use of standard options. By varying one or more of the number and type of option, the strike prices, and the face value of the options, it is possible to tailor a variety of outcomes to suit the particular risk profile desired for a foreign currency exposure.
