This article examines three different risk management methods: asset hedging by shorting stocks, cash flow hedging using forward contracts, and futures contracts. The article explains each method's rationale, application, advantages, and disadvantages. By presenting and explaining these methods, this study aims to help readers gain insights into their effectiveness in managing risk in different types of transactions. The content of the article supports the readers to have a better understanding and gives some strategies for risk management, and provides guidance for decision-makers to mitigate potential risks in their financial operations. Asset hedging by shorting stocks involves selling borrowed stocks in anticipation of a decline in their price, thereby offsetting the potential loss of a declining asset. This strategy allows an investor to profit from a decline in stock prices. Cash flow hedging through forward contracts involves entering into an agreement to buy or sell an asset at a pre-determined future price, thereby reducing the risk of adverse price movements and ensuring a stable cash flow. On the other hand, futures contracts are standardized agreements to buy or sell an asset at a future date, are traded on public markets, provide legal protection for both parties through financial intermediaries, and allow investors to lock in prices. While these risk management methods have obvious advantages, such as potential gains to offset the risk of asset depreciation during market downturns, protection against adverse price movements, and price stabilization, they also have inherent risks and limitations that need to be carefully considered.
