(ii) Interest rate risk
The Group’s cash flow exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from long-term borrowings at floating
rates. Interest rate swaps are used to manage the interest rate profile of interest-bearing financial liabilities
on a currency by currency basis to maintain an appropriate fixed rate and floating rate ratio. Interest rate risk
is measured by using sensitivity analysis on variable rate instruments.
At the reporting date the interest rate profile of the interest-bearing financial instruments was as below:
