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 />
