The German election was between Helmut Kohl of the conservative Christian Democratic Party and Hans-Jochen Vogel, a former mayor of Munich and the leader of the Social Democrats. A major part of the election campaign centered on whether U.S. Pershing II and cruise missiles should be stationed on German soil. The Kohl forces generally favored continued close links with NATO and the U.S. military, while Vogel demanded that the U.S. and Soviets sign an arms agreement that would make it unnecessary for NATO to install the Pershing and cruise missiles. Since U.S. missiles were involved, Turner speculated that the turn of the election might influence the direction of the Deutschemark/dollar exchange rate. However, he knew he would have to make a decision before the election. The four alternatives described by the banker were as follows: 1. Hedge in the Forward Market In the forward market one sells marks for dollars, or vice versa, today, at a fixed price, with delivery to be accomplished at some future date, such as within one, three, or six months. The advantage of the procedure that Turner would be assured of a fixed number of dollars when the mark sales proceeds were received. Turner noted that the three-month forward price was DM24153/3 and the six-month price was DM2.3945/5. meaning that more dollars would be received per mark in the future than at present. The banker explained that this was because interest rates and inflation in Germany at that moment were below comparable U.S. rates. She reported that the German bank prime rate was 12.0% while the U.S. bank prime was 15.0%, Three-month and six-month government bill rates were 10.0% in Germany and 13.6% in the United States, 2. Hedge in the Money Market Beverly Wu explained that her bank would be able to arrange for Culver Radio to borrow marks from a bank in Germany. The rate charged would be one percentage point above the German bank prime. Should Turner want, he could borrow marks in Germany today, exchange those marks for dollars at once in the spot market, and in three or six months use the mark sales proceeds to repay the German loans. 3. Hedge with Foreign Currency Options In December 1982 the Philadelphia Stock Exchange began trading in foreign currency options. Options were available in five currencies and in multiples of standard sized contracts: Deutschemarks DM 62.500 per contract Swiss francs 62.500 per contract British pounds f 12,500 per contract Canadian dollars CS 50,000 per contract Japanese yen 6,250,000 per contract A person wanting to buy an option on $50,000, for example, would purchase four contracts: $50,000/$12.500 = 4 contracts. Foreign currency options expire on the Saturday preceding the third Wednesday of the expiration month, and expiration months are March, June. September, and December. Thus all contracts for June 1983 expire on June 11, 1983; and all September 1983 contracts INTL FRANCE. CATE ADORN
