2007年是中華電信企業民營化的第二年，如同以往地在業務面及財務面締造了佳績。然而，在2007年9月時，中華電信與香港高盛簽下一紙長達10年期的外匯避險合約，使得中華電信在隔年第一季公佈高達新台幣40億元的未實現匯兌損失，引起市場一片譁然與投資人的輿論，認為此合約讓收入多以新台幣計價的中華電信陷入了不必要的衍生性商品陷阱之中。本個案讓閱讀者以當時中華電信財務長謝劍平的角度，帶領閱讀者解構、分析這個極具爭議的的結構型商品。過程中牽涉到避險決策、契約評價、代理問題、公司治理、外匯預測、市場效率性等議題。2008年10月契約觸及匯價32.7終止，中華電信最終獲利新台幣3010萬元出場，新台幣10多億的帳面損失也全數回沖。個案閱讀者能從中學習到重要的思考過程，並做出權衡之下對股東利益最好的決策，我們發現這個外匯避險契約本身並無絕對好壞，因為這是一個風險控管與節省成本的抵換關係，端看決策者的出發點、需求及風險偏好決定。 / 2007 was the second year after the privatization of Chunghwa Telecom, the financial performance was strong as usual.
