For the year ended 31 December 2022
(b) Sensitivity analysis - Market price risk (continued)
A 1% movement in market prices will result in an unrealised gain or loss for the Group of =N=10.72 million and Company =N=10.534
million (December 2021: Group =N=11.89 million, Company =N=11.686)
Management monitors movements of nancial assets and equity price risk movements on a monthly basis by assessing the expected changes
in the different portfolios due to parallel movements of a 1% increase or decrease in the Nigeria All share index with all other variables held
constant and all the Group's equity instruments in that particular index moving proportionally.
(c) Sensitivity analysis - foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of a nancial instrument will uctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Group carries out an asset liability matching exercise to ensure an adequate currency match between assets and liability so that any net
movement in currency is minimal on the nancial statements.
A 1% movement in foreign exchange rate in USD against the Naira will result in =N=526.9 million gain or loss for the Group and Company
of =N=203.6 million (2021: Group =N=478.83m and Company =N=200.8m). In Euro, Group =N=4.96 million and Company =N=2.48
million (2021: Group =N=4.38 million and Company =N=1.81 million). And in other currencies, Group =N=364.31 million and Company
=N=136.27 million (2021: Group =N=241.13 million and Company =N= 41.91 million).
In addition, the Group's retrocession programme is denominated in US dollars and provides a stable hard currency platform to hedge against
the uctuations of the various African currencies. The following table analyses the group's exposure to foreign currency risk:
