NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />
<br />
31 March 2010 <br />
39. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES<br />
AND POLICIES (continued)<br />
Interest rate risk<br />
The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market<br />
interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s long term<br />
debt obligations with floating interest rates.<br />
The Group’s policy is to manage its interest cost using<br />
an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debts. To<br />
manage this mix in a cost-effective manner, the Group<br />
may enter into interest rate swap contracts to reduce its<br />
exposure to interest rate fluctuations.<br />
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a<br />
reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other<br />
variables held constant, of the Group’s profit before tax<br />
(through the impact on floating rate borrowings) and the<br />
Group’s and the Company’s equity.<br />
