NATURAL HEDGE
This is a method of decreasing financial risk through investing in two dissimilar financial instruments which performance tends to cancel out each other. It is not like other types of hedges because it does not need the use of sophisticated financial products such as derivatives or forwards. Though, most hedges (natural or otherwise) are imperfect, and do not remove risk completely.
