Note 19: <strong>Financial</strong> Instruments (continued)<br />
(d) Market Risk<br />
<strong>Northeast</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Wangaratta's exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk with only insignificant exposure to<br />
other price risks. Objectives, policies <strong>and</strong> processes used to manage each of these risks are disclosed in the paragraph below.<br />
Currency Risk<br />
<strong>Northeast</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Wangaratta is not exposed to foreign currency risk through its payables relating to purchases of supplies <strong>and</strong><br />
consumables from overseas. This is because of a limited amount of purchases denominated in foreign currencies <strong>and</strong> a short timeframe<br />
between commitment <strong>and</strong> settlement.<br />
Interest Rate Risk<br />
Exposure to interest rate risk might arise primarily through <strong>Northeast</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Wangaratta's interest bearing liabilities.<br />
Minimisation of risk is achieved by mainly holding fixed rate or non-interest bearing financial instruments. For<br />
financial liabilities, <strong>Northeast</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Wangaratta mainly holds financial liabilities with relatively even maturity profiles.<br />
