FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
(CONT’D)
(a) Market risk
(i)
Currency risk
The Group operates in Asia with dominant operations in Singapore. Entities in the Group
regularly transact in currencies other than the functional currency of the Group, which is
Singapore Dollar (“SGD”).
Currency risk arises within entities in the Group when transactions are denominated in foreign
currencies. The Group manages the foreign exchange exposure by keeping cash balances
in different currencies and maintaining a policy of matching as far as possible, receipts and
payments in each currency.
In addition, the Group’s risk management policy is to hedge the foreign currency exposure
for at least 80% of the revenue contracts denominated in foreign currencies by entering into
currency forward contracts.
Fair value changes of currency forward contracts are recognised in profit or loss at each
reporting date, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in
other comprehensive income.
The Group’s currency exposure based on the information provided to key management is as
follows:
