Hedging Strategies for Financial Institutions in the Current Market Environment 2023 | Financial Managers Society (FMS) | 8 May 2023 | Webinar

With inflation at its highest levels in decades, the Federal Reserve has been forced to raise interest rates by over 4.5%, and counting, in just over a year. But with the market eyeing a potential end of tightening in sight, will the U.S. economy be able to achieve lower inflation and a soft landing? Join Chatham Financial as we talk about the current rate environment and how it may impact financial institutions. We’ll discuss the market’s expectations for where interest rates are headed, and strategies that banks and credit unions can deploy to help mitigate various interest rate environments that may come.

Attendees will learn:

• How to protect against rising rates via pay-fixed swaps, caps, and borrower swaps
• How to protect against falling rates via receive-fixed swaps and floors
• How to get your institution set up for hedging in order to be prepared to execute strategies when the time is right
