Is this the currency hedge? If so…
proxy - use correlated currency with local currency because you can’t hedge directly. tries to min currency risk.
cross hedge - hedge the local currency but take on active risk buy going into another currency. only tries to min risk of the local currency u want to hedge but takes on currency risk of another currency for profit.
