The Group is exposed to transactional currency risk primarily through sales and purchases that are denominated in

risk are primarily Indonesian Rupiah and Papua New Guinea Kina. The Group does not practise any fund hedge for its
purchases and sales transaction.
The net unhedged financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group that are not denominated in the functional
currency of the Company are as follows:
