HedgeWatch

HedgeWatch is a web app (with optional mobile companion) for small-to-mid businesses that have foreign currency exposure or variable-rate debt but lack a treasury team. It connects to bank feeds and accounting systems to detect currency mismatches, upcoming payables/receivables by currency, and debt repricing dates. The app produces a simple “risk dashboard” (worst-case, base-case, best-case) and sends alerts when exposures cross thresholds (e.g., a big EUR invoice due in 30 days while revenue is mostly USD). It doesn’t pretend to be a trading platform; instead it generates hedge recommendations (e.g., forward coverage %, natural hedge suggestions) and creates an audit-friendly memo for finance leadership and lenders. The goal is to prevent surprise margin erosion, covenant pressure, and cash crunches caused by FX and rate moves—without requiring complex models or expensive consultants.
