Sensitivity to interest rate risk

VINCI is exposed to the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, given:

  • the cash flow connected with net floating rate financial debt;
  • fixed rate financial instruments, recognised on the balance sheet at fair value through profit or loss;
  • derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedges. These mainly comprise net call option positions on which the maximum loss over the life of the transaction does not exceed the premium paid.

Fluctuations in the value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recognised directly in equity and have no effect on profit or loss (for the effective portion).

The analysis below has been prepared assuming that the amount of the financial debt and derivatives at 31 December 2023 remains constant over one year. The consequence of a variation in interest rates of 100 basis points at the balance sheet date would be an increase or decrease of equity and pre-tax income for the amounts shown below. For the purpose of this analysis, the other variables are assumed to remain constant.

These transactions mainly involve the holding companies, motorway projects and other concessions.
