Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When markets swing like pendulums, your profits hang in limbo
Fair value hedges shield the carrying amount, like armor for your kimbo
Mark-to-market fluctuations threaten what you've carefully built
But derivatives can neutralize the damage, wash away the guilt

[Chorus]
Fair-Cash-Net, the trinity of hedge protection
FVH locks the book value, stops the wild deflection
CFH smooths the future flows through other comprehensive
NIH guards your foreign subs from currency expensive
Highly effective, eighty to one-twenty-five
Keep your hedging relationships mathematically alive

[Verse 2]
Cash flow hedges capture volatility before it strikes your income
Variable interest payments, forecast sales that haven't yet become
Park the gains inside OCI, release them when exposure hits
Perfect timing synchronization, like financial counterfits

[Chorus]
Fair-Cash-Net, the trinity of hedge protection
FVH locks the book value, stops the wild deflection
CFH smooths the future flows through other comprehensive
NIH guards your foreign subs from currency expensive
Highly effective, eighty to one-twenty-five
Keep your hedging relationships mathematically alive

[Bridge]
Prospective testing at inception, check the economic rationale
Retrospective every quarter, prove the offset still walks tall
Credit risk and hedge components, separate the noise from signal
Document your hedging strategy, make effectiveness less fickle

[Verse 3]
Net investment hedges wrap your subsidiaries in foreign lands
Translation differences neutralized by derivatives in your hands
Functional currency fluctuations balanced by your chosen tool
Reserve recycling on disposal, follow every hedging rule

[Chorus]
Fair-Cash-Net, the trinity of hedge protection
FVH locks the book value, stops the wild deflection
CFH smooths the future flows through other comprehensive
NIH guards your foreign subs from currency expensive
Highly effective, eighty to one-twenty-five
Keep your hedging relationships mathematically alive

[Outro]
Discontinue when ineffective, reclassify your gains
IFRS nine mechanics flowing through your accounting veins
