Value proposition

Easy and accessible hedging solutions

At ALT21, we’re on a mission to make currency hedging accessible to everyone.

Currency hedging can protect businesses and investors, regardless of their size, from exchange rate shocks that can threaten their viability. Yet, 80% of SMEs have never used currency hedging services. Individuals use them even less. That’s why we want to transform currency hedging, from something elitist and exotic to something as normal, accessible and mundane as home or car insurance.

For us, this means that any business, financial or not, should be able to offer access to attractively-priced over-the-counter (OTC) currency hedging solutions to customers through any channel.

We’re proud that a growing number of partners are now using X Hedge, our FX and currency hedging platform, under their own brand, to make hedging accessible to more people.

X Hedge gives our partners access to:
• Hedging-as-a-service (HaaS): easy access, in one place and on demand, to everything they need to offer simplified, contextually-relevant, self-service currency financial hedging solutions to customers, when and where they need it
• Hedge Now, Pay Later: access to margin credit for customers, delivered at the point of need, to reduce the capital barriers to hedging
• Payments-as-a-service: easy access, on demand and on the same platform, to everything they need to be able to offer multi-currency bank accounts, wallets, payments, and cards to customers


X Hedge provides enterprise-grade security, scalability and support. It is fit for partner businesses of any size, including Tier 1 institutions. ALT21 is authorised and regulated by the FCA as both an investment firm – enabling us to offer hedging solutions and to manage client money – and as a Payment Service Provider – enabling us to provide payment services through our platform solutions.
