Transaction risk: As part of the Group’s general risk management policy, Sopra Steria Group systematically hedges against foreign currency transaction risks that constitute material risks. In addition, centralised management of foreign exchange transaction risk is in place with the Group’s main entities (apart from India). Sopra Steria Group acts as the centralising entity, granting exchange rate guarantees to subsidiaries in pounds sterling, US dollars, Polish zlotys, Tunisian dinars, Norwegian kroner and Swiss francs. After netting internal exposures, Sopra Steria Group hedges the residual exposure through the use of derivatives. The remeasurement through profit or loss of these financial instruments hedging balance sheet items is offset by the revaluation of foreign currency receivables over the period.
At 31 December 2021, the fair value of foreign exchange instruments was -744 thousand. The portfolio’s sensitivity in the event of a change in interest rates is: an increase of 1,483 thousand in the event of a 5% fall in the p euro; a decrease of 1,669 thousand in the event of a 5% rise in the p euro. Foreign exchange risk: At 31 December 2021, sterling-denominated debt providing partial coverage of the assets comprised of shares in UK subsidiaries amounted to 261,434 thousand, while cash and cash equivalents in Swedish kronor providing partial coverage of the debt of subsidiaries in Sweden came to 19,045 thousand.
