Forex Portfolio Management Services

A foreign exchange position is an important element in a balanced portfolio. Investors interested in taking advantage of the forex capital market without the responsibility of real time trading can have their funds managed by a Forex Capital Management professional.

FCM Arbitrage Programs

FCM's Arbitrage Programs only engage in “arbitraging” the cash and cash options markets in currency and government obligations. "Arbitraging" takes offsetting long or short positions in the same or interrelated markets. Forex Capital Management works to capture pricing anomalies that develop between instruments that should, in a perfect market, be substantially identical in price. Your account profits with the arbitrage purchase and offsetting sale of such instruments. Although currencies and government obligations are assumed to be fungible, minor price differentials develop between closely comparable instruments due to transient factors and quirks of supply and demand. FCM identifies the opportunities to exploit these differentials to your advantage.

FCM Closed End Investment Funds

Forex Capital Management offers Closed End Investment Funds as a means of helping investors concerned about additional liability or initial deposits. FCM carefully selects and monitors the speculative trading programs for these funds. On an ongoing basis, assets are allocated to provide all necessary administrating services to the funds. These funds are traded exclusively through the FCM order desk. There are no ongoing management fixed fees or “round turn” fees – compensation for FCM is based on a performance incentive.

FCM Cross Rate Programs

Cross Rate Programs typically trade up to 20 currencies through forward contracts, concentrating exclusively non-U.S. Dollar transactions. Forex Capital Management Cross Rate Programs trade the Swiss, European, British, Canadian and Japanese currencies, as well as a variety of secondary national currencies. These programs weight the different markets, taking into account the potentially higher volatility of a portfolio which trades exclusively in the currency markets. FCM Cross Rate Programs eliminate much of the influence of U.S. Dollar movements, for example, through purchasing, for example, the Swedish Kroner while simultaneously selling and equivalent amount of Australian Dollars. Profit and loss accrues as the relationship between the Swedish and Australian currencies change, regardless of U.S. Dollar movements. FCM Cross Rate Programs calculate position size based on risk in the current market, and the correlation of a particular currency with and against other currencies.

FCM Hedging Programs

Our Hedging Programs employ only fully hedged trading to remove risk and "lock-in" prices. Forex Capital Management makes certain that no arbitrage or speculative trade is permitted in designated hedge accounts.

FCM Managed Speculative Accounts

FCM offers a wide range of Managed Speculative Account programs for individual and institutional investors. These programs trade forward, spot and option contracts in a variety of currencies and government obligations. The goal is to achieve substantial capital appreciation by profiting on frequent and often significant price fluctuations. These accounts take "outright" positions in which the U.S. Dollar is bought and sold against other currencies. Forex Capital Management also offers speculative trading programs in non-U.S. government obligations, where profit is generated from rising or falling interest rates in the country of issue. FCM trades and monitors over 30 different currencies and government obligations, and trades exclusively in these markets.

FCM believes that the risk inherent in a concentrated approach should be somewhat reduced by employing a multi-program and advisory strategy to its Managed Speculative Accounts. By employing a variety of programs and advisory strategies, FCM believes that customer accounts may achieve reduced downside volatility while retaining substantial upside potential. In-house analysts as well as several outside advisors who have been selected for their broad-based trading views direct FCM Managed Speculative Accounts.
