Hedge accounting derivatives
HSBC uses derivatives (principally interest rate swaps) for hedging purposes in the management of its own asset and
liability portfolios and structural positions. This enables HSBC to optimise the overall cost to the Group of accessing debt
capital markets, and to mitigate the market risk which would otherwise arise from structural imbalances in the maturity
and other profiles of its assets and liabilities.
The notional contract amounts of derivatives held for hedge accounting purposes indicate the nominal value of
transactions outstanding at the balance sheet date; they do not represent amounts at risk.
