3. Transaction risk analysis and risk control measures

(1) Transaction risk analysis

The company's foreign exchange hedging business follows the principle of locking exchange rates and interest rate risks, and does not engage in speculative or arbitrage trading operations. However, there are still certain risks in the foreign exchange hedging business:

  1. Market risk: The difference between the contract exchange rate and interest rate of the foreign exchange hedging business and the actual exchange rate and interest rate on the maturity date will generate transaction profits and losses; during the duration of the foreign exchange hedging, revaluation profits and losses will occur in each accounting period, and the cumulative value of the revaluation profits and losses by the maturity date is equal to the transaction profits and losses.

  2. Liquidity risk: The foreign exchange hedging business is based on the company's foreign exchange assets and liabilities, and matches the actual foreign exchange receipts and expenditures to ensure that there are sufficient funds for settlement at the time of delivery, or choose net delivery derivatives to reduce the demand for funds on the maturity date.

  3. Performance risk: The company's foreign exchange hedging targets are all banks with good credit and which have established long-term business relationships with the company, so the performance risk is low.

  4. Customer default risk: Customer accounts receivable are overdue and the payment cannot be recovered within the predicted recovery period, which will cause delayed delivery and cause losses to the company.

  5. Other risks: When conducting transactions, if operators fail to perform foreign exchange hedging operations according to prescribed procedures or fail to fully understand hedging information, operational risks will arise; if the terms of the transaction contract are unclear, they may face legal risks. When conducting transactions overseas, you may face risks arising from the political and economic situation and local laws of the relevant countries and regions.

System construction: The company has established the "Securities Investment and Derivatives Transaction Management System", which clearly stipulates the scope of authorization, approval procedures, operational points, risk management and information disclosure of derivatives transactions, which can effectively regulate foreign exchange derivatives trading behavior and control foreign exchange derivatives trading risks.

  3. Product selection: Before conducting foreign exchange hedging business, conduct comparative analysis between multiple counterparties and multiple products, and select financial derivatives that are most suitable for the company's business background, strong liquidity, and controllable risks to carry out business.

The financial management center is responsible for the specific operation of the transaction, and when major changes occur in the market, it will promptly report the changes in risk assessment and propose feasible emergency stop-loss measures.
