Financial risk management<br />
The Group is exposed to a number of financial risks such as access to and cost of funding, interest rate exposure, currency exposure and working<br />
capital management. The Group seeks to minimise these risks where possible and does this by constantly monitoring, reviewing, effectively<br />
managing and using derivative financial instruments as detailed in the Directors’ report. Use of financial instruments is governed by Group policies<br />
which are approved by the Board of Directors. The treasury function does not operate as a profit centre, makes no speculative transactions and only<br />
enters into or trades financial instruments to manage specific exposures.<br />
To ensure the management of those financial risks faced by the Group remain effective, it is very important that any new businesses that are<br />
acquired by the Group are immediately integrated. This means the new business is providing timely and accurate information to the central Treasury<br />
department, so they can produce group reports on key financial risks that reflect the ultimate position of the Group at that time.<br />
Further details on financial risks are provided within the Our Risks section on page 49 and 50.<br />
