NTTCs assets are denominated solely in Australian dollars, therefore exposure to foreign exchange risk arises only if and when borrowings are denominated in foreign currencies. NTTC does not currently issue any foreign currency debt, however should it do so in the future, foreign exchange exposures will be neutralised using cross-currency interest rate swaps. (c) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss and/or increased costs due to the failure of a counterparty to meet its financial obligations. NTTCs exposure to credit risk arises out of lending and derivative transactions. This risk is mitigated by the fact that lending activities are limited to Territory Government entities and its wholly-owned corporations and that derivative transactions may only be entered into with counterparties rated A- or better by Standard&Poors rating group. NTTC aims to ensure that its exposures to individual and group counterparties are within acceptable levels, and to minimise the likelihood that a counterparty will fail to execute its financial obligations.
