Deutsche Borse launches US Dollar hedged version of HDAX

August 19, 2014--Deutsche Börse today launched the HDAX Hedged USD Index, which measures the performance of the underlying HDAX while eliminating foreign currency fluctuations. The HDAX Index measures all 110 stocks listed in the DAX, MDAX and TecDAX indices, representing more than 95 percent of Germany's free-float market capitalization.

The HDAX Hedged USD Index can be used as an underlying for financial products or as a benchmark for active portfolios. The HDAX Hedged USD Index combines the performance of the underlying index with a hypothetical, rolling investment into one-month foreign exchange forward contracts. By selling foreign exchange forward contracts, market participants are able to lock in current exchange forward rates and manage their currency risk. Profits and losses from the forward contracts are offset by losses and profits in the value of the currency.
