- Abstract
The hedging of financial derivatives is crucial for enterprise risk management. However, enterprises often ignore the complexity and leverage of derivatives transactions as well as add speculation in hedging operations, which attributes to the failure of hedging. A bad hedge will bring huge losses to enterprises and even lead to the risk of bankruptcy. Therefore, learning from the failure of others is helpful to improve the risk awareness of enterprises. Taking the bankruptcy of Metallgesellschaft Refining and Marketing (MGRM) company as an example, this paper investigates the conditions for the usage of financial derivatives based on SWOT and PEST as well as analyses the hedging failure process and related risks. According to the results, financial derivatives need to recognize the nature of transactions, prevent and control technical operational risks and actively manage after position establishment. These results shed light for risk analysis of financial derivatives.
