36 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES
The Group’s financial risk management policy seeks to ensure that adequate financial resources are available for the
development of the Group’s businesses whilst managing its fuel price, interest rate, foreign currency, credit, market,
liquidity and cash flow risks. The Group operates within defined guidelines that are approved and reviewed
periodically by the Board to minimise the effects of such volatility on its financial performance. The policies in respect
of the major areas of treasury activity are as follows:
(a) Fuel price risk
The Group is exposed to jet fuel price risk arising from the fluctuations in the prices of jet fuel. It seeks to hedge
its fuel requirements and implements various fuel management strategies in order to manage the risk of rising
fuel prices. This includes entering into jet fuel derivative contracts with a maturity period of 6 months each to
partially protect against significant increase in fuel price.
As at the balance sheet date, the Company has entered into fuel written options contacts for 18,420,000 barrels
(2006: 15,840,000 barrels) of jet fuel for the period from 1 July 2007 to 30 June 2010 (2006: 1 July 2007 to 30 June
2009). These arrangements are to be settled in US Dollars. The unrealised gain/(loss) on these contracts is monthly
settled.
(b) Interest rate risk
The Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
Interest rate exposure arises from the Group’s borrowings and deposits and is managed by maintaining a prudent
mix of fixed and floating rate debt and derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are used,
where appropriate, to generate the desired interest rate profile. Surplus funds are placed with reputable financial
institutions at the most favourable interest rates.
The Company has entered into interest rate swap contracts that will effectively convert almost all of its floating
rate debt under each of its long term debt facilities into fixed rate debt. Loans for approximately 8% of total long
term debt are not covered by such swaps and have therefore remained at floating rates linked to London Inter
Bank Offer Rate.
The remaining terms and notional principal amounts of the outstanding interest rate swap contracts of the
Company at the balance sheet date, which are denominated in US Dollars, were as follows:

(b) Interest rate risk (cont’d)
The net exposure of financial assets and liabilities of the Group and Company to interest rate cash flow risk (after
taking into account the effects of interest rate swaps described above) and the periods in which the borrowings
mature or reprice (whichever is earlier) are as follows:
