Consider the following three currency pairs: AUD/CNY, AUD/USD and EUR/AUD, where AUD stands for
the Australian dollar, CNY is the Chinese currency Yuan, EUR refers to euro, and USD for the US dollar.
1. Conduct an analysis of the recent exchange value dynamics of these three currency pairs (since
January 2019) given the recent global events and the recent period of high stress in world
economies and markets (cite the precise factors and events), and assess the impacts of the current
COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine War on the movements of the above currency pairs.
You may refer to your own currency trading experience if you have. Maximum word limit: 500 Words
(PGCLO2.1 & 2.4).
2. Are CNY, EUR and USD performing better or worse than AUD in terms of current global market
conditions and future economic prospects? Based on your analysis, construct a capital investment
plan including a hedging strategy for Australian multinational corporations (MNCs) operating into
these countries, i.e. China, the eurozone and the United States. Maximum word limit: 500 Words
(PGCLO2.1 & 2.2).
3. Advanced Power Pty Ltd has been manufacturing Australia’s largest range of portable power
generators under the Advanced Power brand for over 20 years. It exports portable and commercial
generators and control systems to Italy but the recent strong AUD against the euro hurts their sales
in Italy. In the Italian market, Advanced Power faces competition from the Germany and French
portable generators makers, whose operating currencies are the euro. What kind of measures
would you recommend so that Advanced Power Pty Ltd can maintain its overall market share, and
in particular, its market share in Italy. Approximate word limit: 500 Words (PGCLO2.3 & 2.4).
