Financial risks

Axfood is exposed to financial risks in the form of financing and refinancing risks, liquidity risks, interest rate risks, currency risks and credit risks.

Every year, the Board of Directors adopts a Group-wide finance policy that regulates the delegation of responsibility for financial matters between the Board and the President and CEO. The Group’s external financing and financial risk management is handled by Group Treasury within Axfood AB. Group Treasury reports monthly to the CFO with a follow-up of the finance policy. The same report is also presented to the Board four times a year.

For further information about financial risks, see the Annual and Sustainability Report.
