CHAIR AND CEO’S REVIEW

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE

Airways’ primary objective in managing foreign exchange risk is to protect foreign exchange rates implicit in project or expenditure approvals and foreign revenue streams. This is achieved by using forward exchange contracts to hedge: a) all transactions greater than NZD $50,000 and with a transaction date greater than one month; and b) all transactions greater than NZD $500,000 regardless of transaction date. In addition, management monitor all residual exposures to ensure they do not become material. To ensure these policies are adhered to, Airways operate the following controls: • no purchase order or invoice request for FX exposures above control limit levels can be approved without a hedge in place; • residual exposures are monitored and reported internally on a monthly basis; and • All hedging transactions are approved in accordance with delegated financial authorities. Airways’ exposure to foreign exchange risk is set out in the table below, which shows the NZD value of financial exposures denominated in foreign currency (at their hedged rates, where applicable), and the quantum of forward exchange contracts in place to hedge them.
