7 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Combined financial statements and notes
The Group makes use of various derivatives:
However:
variable ‑ rate indexed swaps, to protect the bond portfolio against an increase in rates; ❯ fixed ‑ rate swaps to hedge variable ‑ rate indexed underlyings; ❯ currency or inflation ‑ indexed swaps. The economic aim of this strategy is to invest in fixed ‑ rate euro bonds; ❯ currency futures used to hedge currency risk; ❯ forward purchases of French sovereign bonds to hedge reinvestment risk. ❯
the foreign exchange risk hedge of one of the holdings denominated in a foreign currency is documented as a fair value hedge; ❯ hedges against reinvestment risk via forward purchases of bonds have been documented as cash flow hedges since 31 March 2022. ❯
Most of these derivatives are not recorded as hedging transactions in the sense of IFRS 9. The consideration of counterparty default risk in determining the fair value of financial instruments, in accordance with IFRS 13, does not have a significant impact on the fair value of derivatives due to the collateralisation mechanism put in place by the Group.

The figures presented for 31 December 2022 are pro forma . The Group has opted for temporary exemption from the rule on consistency of accounting policies ordinarily required by the IAS 28 standard, and as stipulated under paragraph 20 O (b) of the amendments to IFRS 4 “Applying IFRS 9, Financial Instruments with IFRS 4, Insurance Contracts” and “Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Applying IFRS 9”. These
amendments allow insurance groups that have elected to defer application of IFRS 9, and that consolidate their related companies using the equity method to preserve the financial statements prepared by such related companies for the purposes of producing their consolidated financial statements.
