En Colombia las compañías del sector agropecuario son dependientes de insumos importados. Esto obliga a que las compañías realicen transacciones en divisas extranjeras, principalmente en dólares. Esta situación hace que las empresas tengan una exposición a riesgo cambiario, que, junto a la volatilidad del peso colombiano y su dependencia del dinamismo de la economía mundial, vuelve interesante la posibilidad de utilizar herramientas financieras, como derivados financieros que permitan minimizar o mitigar el riesgo inherente en esta actividad. Esta volatilidad en la tasa de cambio genera incertidumbre y alta variación en los flujos de caja de las compañías del sector agropecuario, por la dificultad de hacer una proyección acertada del flujo de caja, ya que hay un desafío importante en proyectar el valor que tendrá la divisa al momento de la importación. Así, el propósito de este documento es evaluar el impacto que tendría el uso de coberturas al riesgo cambiario para la adquisición de maíz en el estado de resultados de una compañía porcícola en Colombia.
In Colombia, companies in the agricultural sector rely on imported materials. This forces companies to conduct transactions in foreign currencies, primarily in US dollars. This situation exposes companies to foreign exchange risk, which, along with the volatility of the Colombian peso and its dependence on the dynamism of the global economy, makes it interesting to consider the possibility of using financial instruments such as derivatives to minimize or mitigate the inherent risk in this activity. The volatility in the exchange rate generates uncertainty and high variation in the cash flows of companies in the agricultural sector due to the difficulty of making an accurate projection of cash flow, as there is a significant challenge in projecting the value that the currency will have at the time of importation. Thus, the purpose of this document is to evaluate the impact that the use of hedging through derivatives to manage exchange rate risk for the acquisition of corn would have on the income statement of a pork company in Colombia.
