  Effective capital is a term used in the SAP FS-BA-PM-HP Hedge Processes component. It is the amount of capital that is available to be used for hedging activities. This amount is calculated by taking into account the current market value of the hedging instruments, as well as any associated costs and fees. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to calculate effective capital, users must first determine the current market value of the hedging instruments. This can be done by using market data or by using a pricing model. Once the market value has been determined, users must then factor in any associated costs and fees. These costs and fees can include transaction costs, margin requirements, and other related expenses. Once all of these factors have been taken into account, the effective capital can be calculated.
