GUARANTEES Guarantees are accorded by the Group to the correct execution of international contracts. In particular, ADP International and TAV Airports gave commitments (share pledges, receivable pledge, pledge over bank accounts) in relation to bank loans that are intended to finance the construction and operation of certain concessions (see note 15). 9.1.2 Market risk Market risk corresponds to the risk that market price variations, such as exchange rates, interest rates and equity instrument prices, may affect the Group’s results or the value of financial instruments held. The objective of the management of market risk is to manage and control exposure to market risk within acceptable limits, while optimising the profitability/risk ratio. Analyses of sensitivity to rate risk and to exchange risk are presented in note 9.5.3. 9.2 Capital Management The gearing ratio decreased from 192% in 31 December 2021 to 153% in 31 December 2022. The decrease of the gearing ratio is driven by the increase in shareholders’ equity. The net financial debt / EBITDA ratio decreased from 10.67 at 31 December 2021 to 4.37 at 31 December 2022. The decrease of the ratio is explained by the increase of Ebitda over the period. The Group did not alter its capital management policy over the course of the year. The Group occasionally buys its own shares on the open market to ensure the liquidity of its shares. The frequency of such purchases depends on market prices. The Board of Directors monitors the level of dividends paid to holders of ordinary shares. On this date, employees currently hold 1.70% of ordinary shares. Neither the parent company nor its subsidiaries are subject to any specific requirements under external regulations.

CUSTOMERS AND OTHER DEBTORS The Group policy is to place under legal supervision and to check the financial health of all its customers (either new or not).

Quantitative details regarding trade receivables and anteriority or current receivables are set out in note 4.4. In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group determines a level of impairment of its trade receivables based on expected credit losses.

Thus, with regard to airlines, the Group takes into consideration the support or not of the States. For companies operating in the distribution sector, the Group assesses the financial strength of the companies to determine the necessary depreciations. For all receivables, the Group takes also into account the paying On the one hand, with regard to credit risk relating to the Group’s other financial assets (cash, cash equivalents, financial assets available for sale and certain derivative instruments), Aéroports de Paris SA invests its surplus cash via short term Euro money market funds.
