    Estrategia de cobertura con forward para la exportación de aguacate Hass
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Calderón Perdomo, María Alejandra; Sánchez Holguín, Nathalia; Manco López, Oscar Oswaldo
    In this research work, a hedging strategy is developed for companies dedicated to the export of Hass avocado to markets that can be volatile and unpredictable, as is currently the case with the U.S. market as a result of the trade policies with which Donald Trump's second term in office began. In this sense, the proposed financial hedging strategy is based on the instrument of forward contracts to reduce the risk of price fluctuations and maximize profits for Hass avocado exporting companies. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of this strategy, three export scenarios were analyzed: one with full hedging (100% to 60 days), one with partial hedging (70% to 90 days) and one without hedging (0% to 120 days), which consider exchange rate speculations in situations of currency depreciation and appreciation.
