ABSTRACT

For oil companies, commodity price risk is an issue that cannot be ignored, and it is particularly important to hedge their price risk in the spot market and develop a reasonable strategic plan. This paper takes Chevron Corporation, a US oil giant, as an example, and analyzes how it uses financial derivatives to hedge its financial risk and control its losses in the event of a large loss in the spot market due to a large shock in the economic market. We also analyze the company's internal and external status with the SWOT analysis method and make reasonable suggestions to help the company come up with a targeted corporate strategy.
