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 and Polish zlotys. 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 2018, the fair value of foreign exchange instruments was €576 thousand. The portfolio’s sensitivity in the event of a change in interest rates is: p an increase of €538.2 thousand in the event of a 5% fall in the euro; p a decrease of €509.5 thousand in the event of a 5% rise in the euro. Foreign currency risk Sopra Steria Group SA grants loans in sterling to a UK subsidiary, the outstanding balance of which is £40 million, financed by an equivalent debt in sterling. At 31 December 2018, sterling-denominated debt providing partial coverage of the assets comprised of shares in UK subsidiaries amounted to £151.9 million.
