Financial Metrics
What is a natural hedge?
A natural hedge exists when a business holds both its revenue and its asset value in the same foreign currency. Currency swings then offset each other on their own, with no need to buy a financial hedge: the protection comes from how the business is built.
It is a structural advantage. It does not eliminate exchange-rate effects, but it prevents a currency move from hitting from only one side.
Example: Circular Houses is structured in dollars for both short-term rental revenue and asset appreciation. If the dollar weakens, revenue converted to pesos is worth less, but dollar-denominated costs and debts also get cheaper.
