Interest rate risk Each Fund receives income from its various investments. For the Sterling Bond Fund, Euro High Income Fund and High Income Fund, the income is received from investments in bonds and loan stock. In accordance with the Funds policy, the Manager monitors the Fund’s overall interest rate sensitivity on a daily basis, and the Board of Directors reviews it on a quarterly basis. The interest bearing financial assets and liabilities held in the Funds expose them to risks associated with the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on their financial position and cash flows. The table overleaf summarises the effect of interest rate risks on each Fund. It includes the Fund’s assets and trading liabilities at fair values, categorised by the earlier of contractual re-pricing or maturity dates. Other than those financial instruments identified in the table, each Fund has no significant exposure to interest rate risks. The income received by each Fund is primarily fixed in nature and shown in the table on the next page. Income is derived from the securities held in the portfolio of each Fund which may be varied from time to time in accordance with its investment objectives and policy.

The notional amounts of certain types of financial instrument provide a basis for comparison with instruments recognised on the balance sheet, but they do not necessarily indicate the amounts of future cash flows involved or the current fair value of the instruments and do not therefore indicate the Company’s exposure to credit or market price risks.
