UBS advises investors to reconsider their U.S. dollar holdings as global factors may weaken the greenback. Factors include narrowing U.S. growth advantage, central bank policy changes, and diversification away from dollar assets. Real-time rate changes can be tracked using the Forex Daily API.

To align currency holdings with future expenses, consider holding euros for European tuition, CHF for Swiss retirement income, and JPY for business imports. Matching currency holdings with liabilities reduces conversion risk and unfavorable spot rates. Evaluate yield, liquidity, and volatility trade-offs.

UBS suggests considering alternative currencies like the euro for stability, Swiss franc for safe-haven protection, and Japanese yen for risk aversion. Holding these currencies can hedge against U.S. dollar weakness and geopolitical risks. Monitor central bank policies using APIs for informed decisions.

Practical steps to rebalance currency exposure include listing current holdings, projecting liabilities, setting target weights, reallocating strategically using low-cost options, and monitoring central bank decisions. By reassessing dollar allocations now, investors can secure more favorable exchange rates and reduce currency risk for future obligations.
