原标题:墨西哥今年对冲原油出口价格每桶49美元
中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博社墨西哥城报道,墨西哥财政部表示,该国政府对今年的石油出口进行了对冲,平均价格为每桶49美元,锁定了针对低油价的保护措施。
墨西哥财政部上周五发布的一份声明宣布,按照2020年预算中估计的油价,对冲基金已经完成。
近年来,墨西哥平均花费约10亿美元从华尔街银行购买金融看跌期权,这是一套受到密切关注的交易,通常涵盖2 - 3亿桶原油,有可能扰乱市场。这笔交易也被称为“庄园对冲”(Hacienda hedge),被认为是华尔街最大的石油交易。
为墨西哥提供看跌期权的银行通过出售原油和成品油期货和掉期产品,在市场上对冲风险。
2015年和2016年,在原油价格暴跌、锁定了高于市场的价格后,墨西哥从对冲基金中赚取了数十亿美元。

Mexico hedges 2020 crude oil exports at $49 per barrel
Mexico’s government hedged oil exports for this year at an average $49 a barrel, locking in protection against low crude prices, the nation’s Finance Ministry said.
A statement from the ministry on Friday announcing the completion of the hedge, for the same oil price as estimated in the 2020 budget, didn’t disclose how much Mexico paid to acquire the coverage, a break from recent years, including the announcement of the program for 2019 a year ago.
Mexico has in recent years spent around $1 billion on average buying financial put options from Wall Street banks, a closely-watched set of trades that typically covers 200 million to 300 million barrels of crude and has the potential to roil markets. The trade, also known as the Hacienda hedge, is considered the largest oil deal on Wall Street.
Banks writing put options for Mexico -- contracts that give it the right to sell oil at a predetermined future price -- hedge themselves in the market by selling crude and refined products futures and swaps.
Mexico earned billions of dollars from the hedge in 2015 and 2016 after crude oil plunged, locking in above-market prices.
