The main purpose of this research is to use the trading data of corporate foreign exchange derivatives between 2013 and 2015 as the sample, to understand different corporate trading strategies, and to analyze the correlation between different corporate characteristics and derivatives trading, and the important factors which will affect derivatives payoff. The study shows that to hedge currency trading risks, corporates mainly use FX forward as the main instrument. In terms of currency derivatives, domestic enterprises mainly use USD/TWD, while OBUs use USD/JPY, trading in EUR, USD and JPY which has higher liquidity. In terms of corporate organizational forms, listed companies have a higher need in hedging than trading when dealing foreign exchange options, but a higher need in trading than hedging when dealing FX forward. Regradless whether a transaction is for hedging or trading, OTC companies deal with foreign exchange options than FX forward.SMEs have smaller notional amounts in trading, and have a higher need in hedge than trading FX forward, and higher need in trading than hedge when dealing foreign exchange options. OBUs have higher average notional amounts in a single trading, and have a higher need in hedging than in trading when dealing foreign exchange options, and a higher need in trading when dealing FX forward and structured products. Overall, SMEs have the best performances, then followings are Listed Companies, OBUs, and OTCs. In terms of foreign currency derivatives, options outperform FX forward, and structured products have the worst performances.
