(f) Interest rate re-pricing analysis

The following table covers Transpower’s total debt portfolio, including the effect of off balance sheet financial instruments whom interest rates will be re-priced and the current weighted average interest rate of each maturity. Transpower will transact further interest rate hedging in advance of the re-pricing date to fix interest rates on the Company debt portfolio within the policy parameters adopted by the Board.

Trade receivables/creditors, other receivables and other liabilities have not been included in the table below as they are not interest rate sensitive.

Forward rate agreements are also excluded from the re-pricing analysis as these contracts mature within one year. For the purpose of re-pricing, debt denominated in foreign currencies is stated after applying cross currency interest rate swaps.
