In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to fluctuations inforeign currency exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, liquidity ad credit risk,which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Companyhas a risk management policy which not only covers the foreign exchange risks butalso other risks associated the financial assets and liabilities such as interest rate risksand credit risks. The risk management is approved by the Board of Directors. The riskmanagement framework aims to:
(i) Create a stable business planning environment by reducing the impact ofcurrency and interest rate fluctuation on the Company’s business plan.
(ii) Achieve greater predictability to earnings by determining the financial value ofthe expected earnings in advance.
Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realisable fair values or infuture cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument.The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interestrates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity price fluctuations, liquidity and othermarket changes. Future specific market movements cannot be normally predictedwith reasonable accuracy.
Interest rate risk is that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrumentwill fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposureto the risk of market interest rate relates primarily to the Company’s debt obligationswith floating interest rates. The Company manages its interest rate risk by havingmore of fixed rate loans and borrowings.
As the most of the debts of the Company are fixed rate loans and borrowings, therewill be minimum impact on the Company’s profit before tax due to possible changein interest rates.
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposurewill fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposureto the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates primarily to the Company’s operatingand financing activities. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency changes frominvesting activities is not material.

Movement in the functional currencies of the various operations of the Companyagainst the major foreign currencies may impact the Company’s revenues fromoperations. Any weakening of the functional currency may improve the Company’sexports and any strengthening of the functional currency may impact the Company’sexports. The foreign exchange rate sensitivity is calculated for each currency byaggregation of the net foreign exchange foreign exchange rate exposure of a currencyand a simultaneous parallel foreign exchange rate shift in the foreign exchange ratesof each currency by 3% which represents management’s assessment of the reasonablypossible changes in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes onlyoutstanding foreign currency dominated monetary items and adjusts their translationat the period end for a 3% change in the foreign currency rate.
In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherentforeign exchange risk because the exposure at the end of the reporting period doesnot reflect the exposure during the year.
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligation under a financialinstrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. Financial instruments thatare subject to credit risk and concentration thereof principally consists of tradereceivables, loans receivable, investments and cash and cash equivalent.

The expected creditloss allowance is based on the ageing of the receivable that are due and rates used inthe provision matrix.
Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents, deposits etc. which is managed by theCompany’s finance department, is generally very low as the said deposits have beenmade with the banks who have been assigned high credit rating by international anddomestic rating agencies.
Credit risk on derivative instruments is generally low as the Company enters into theDerivative contracts with reputed banks and the size of the contracts is small.
