Credit spread impact

Corporate debt normally has a credit spread built into the pricing that is applied by the market, over and above the interest rate swap pricing. This spread represents the additional risk of a corporate debt obligation compared with a liquid net settled swap transaction. Refer to Note 17 Debt, financial instruments and risk management, part iv credit risk, for discussion on the credit spread impact on fair value.

Foreign purchases

The Transpower Lines Business hedges against foreign currency fluctuations on certain foreign purchases through the use of forward exchange contracts. The "hedge commitment" represents the non derivative fair value movement on the commitment to buy the goods, i.e. before the goods or an invoice are received. Note that, although all forward exchange contracts are used for economically hedging foreign purchases, not all forward exchange contracts are hedge accounted.

Debt and investments

Refer to Note 17 Debt, financial Instruments and risk management for information on the use of debt, investments and derivatives.
