Estrategia de gestión de riesgo cambiario para una empresa del sector floricultor colombiano
This paper aims to analyze how flower exporting companies in Colombia can use financial derivatives to manage risks associated with exchange rate and price volatility in international markets. The research focused on answering the question: how can financial derivatives improve financial planning and ensure the return of flower companies? To answer this question, financial data from the last five years of a company were collected and analyzed. Quantitative methodologies, including sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulations, were used to assess how different market scenarios and macroeconomic variables would affect the company's finances and how derivatives would mitigate these effects. The study finds that the implementation of financial hedging strategies through derivatives can reduce financial risks, mainly linked to foreign exchange exposure, and ensure profitability levels, providing effective solutions for the stability of the Colombian flower sector.
