Exchange rate fluctuations can significantly affect the cost of international contracts. The most direct way to eliminate this risk is to agree prices in the buyer’s home currency (GBP Sterling). This passes the risk to the supplier, who must manage currency exposures through hedging or local arrangements.

Responsible sourcing requires buyers to consider financial risk-sharing mechanisms as part of contract negotiations.
