NOTE 37: RISK MANAGEMENT
FRAMEWORK
The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company, through three layers of defence namely policies and procedures, review mechanism and assurance aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Audit committee of the Board with top management oversee the formulation and implementation of the Risk management policies. The risks are identified at business unit level and mitigation plan are identified, deliberated and reviewed at appropriate forums.
A. Financial risk management
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
- credit risk (see (i));
- liquidity risk (see (ii)); and
- market risk (see (iii)).
i. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers, loans and investments. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit risk exposure.
Trade receivables
The Company has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company’s review includes external ratings, if they are available, financial statements, credit agency information, industry information and business intelligence. Sale limits are established for each customer and reviewed annually. Any sales exceeding those limits require approval from the appropriate authority as per policy. In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, including whether they are an individual or a legal entity, whether they are a institutional, dealers or end-user customer, their geographic location, industry,
trade history with the Company and existence of previous financial difficulties.
Expected credit loss for trade receivables
The Company based on internal assessment which is driven by the historical experience/current facts available in relation to default and delays in collection thereof, the credit risk for trade receivables is considered low. The Company estimates its allowance for trade receivable using lifetime expected credit loss and accordingly provision is made for the doubtful debts.
Expected credit loss on financial assets other than trade receivables
With regards to all financial assets with contractual cash flows other than trade receivable, management believes these to be high quality assets with negligible credit risk. The management believes that the parties from which these financial assets are recoverable, have strong capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is negligible and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided on these financial assets.
ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company’s finance and accounts department is responsible for managing the short term and long term liquidity requirements. Short term liquidity situation is reviewed daily. Longer term liquidity position is reviewed on a regular basis by the Board of Directors and appropriate decisions are taken according to the situation.
iii. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates that will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control
market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the currencies in which sales, purchases and borrowings
are denominated and the functional currency of the Company. The currencies in which the Company is exposed to risk are generally USD and EUR. The Company follows a natural hedge driven currency risk mitigation policy to the extent possible. Any residual risk is evaluated and appropriate risk mitigating steps are taken, including but not limited to, entering into forward contract.
Sensitivity analysis
A reasonably possible strengthening (weakening) of the USD and EUR against all other currencies at 31 March would have affected the measurement of financial exposure denominated in a foreign currency and affected equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below.
Movement of USD and EUR and its effect on financial exposure on P & L . (1% variation /-). The assumed movement in exchange rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is measured by using the cash flow sensitivity for changes in variable interest rate. The borrowings of the Company are principally denominated in rupees of fixed rates of interest. The Company has exposure to interest rate risk, arising principally on changes in base lending rate.
In order to optimize the company’s position with regard to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, treasury performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of the fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.
(iii) Sensitivity
Profit/loss is not sensitive to higher/lower interest expense from borrowings as the interest rates are fixed.
B. Capital management
