Hedge accounting is an accounting practice that allows companies to match the timing of gains or losses on hedging instruments (like derivatives) with the losses or gains on the underlying exposures they are meant to offset, reducing volatility in reported earnings. It is used by corporate accountants and treasury professionals under standards like IFRS 9 or US GAAP (ASC 815) when managing risks such as interest rate, foreign currency, or commodity price fluctuations.
