    I. Executive Summary

    Executive Summary

    21% of Pakistans GDP is backed by the agriculture sector and a hefty 62% of countrys population is

    directly or indirectly dependent on agriculture. The Agriculture sectors strong linkages with the rest of

    the economy are not fully captured in the statistics. While on the one hand, the sector is a primary

    supplier of raw materials to downstream industry, contributing substantially to Pakistans exports, on

    the other, it is a large market for industrial products such as fertilizer, pesticides, tractors and

    agricultural implements. A thriving agriculture sector is also essential to the prosperity of

    manufacturing sector of the economy which mainly consists of agro based industries such as textiles,

    sugar, food etc.

    Fertilizers are substances added to soil to improve the growth of plants, as well as their yield. Fertilizer

    industry in Pakistan is dominated by two main products; urea (nitrogen based product, accounting for

    66% market share) and DAP (phosphorus based product, having 19% market share). Countrys annual

    urea demand is approximately 6.5mn tons with local manufacturing capacity being 5.0mn tons. Delta

    demand is met through imports. While Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim is the sole producer of DAP in

    Pakistan, accounting for 42% of local DAP market share, whereas the remaining 58% demand is met

    through imports.

    Due to this high dependence ratio on agriculture sector, Government has always maintained a

    transparent and consistent policy for fertilizer industry regarding, a) fresh investments, b) input prices,

    c) supply of inputs. After domestic consumers, fertilizer industry is placed at priority list when it comes

    to rationing of gas. The largest domestic urea producing companies receive their gas supply from Mari

    Gas field. Mari field gas is not pipeline quality due to which there is limited risk of gas diversion, even

    if there is shortage of gas in other segments.

    The government sets minimum purchase prices of major crops (wheat, paddy, sugarcane). In the

    absence of a commodity exchange, support prices ensure a fair return to the farmers, thus giving them

    incentives to invest in these crops. Besides this, the farmer income is exempt from corporate and

    general sales tax.

    Pakistan is currently deficient in urea production by 1.5mn tons, but the scenario will change in the

    next few months once Fatima Fertilizer and Engro plants comes online. The total urea capacity of two

    plants will be around 1.8mn tons. The concerns that the country may face excess capacity in domestic

    market leading to under utilizations or price wars is exaggerated as new urea capacity of 1.8mn tons is

    only 0.3mn tons above the current deficit. The gas loadshedding is estimated to reduce domestic

    fertilizer production by 0.3-0.6mn tons at least. Looking at current local demand supply balance,

    imports, future expansions and gas curtailment, it is likely that Pakistan will face urea shortage from

    2012 and onwards on a conservative basis.

    Flash floods so far depict a devastating picture. While final numbers would take time to shape up, the

    situation is dire and macro targets for FY11E are destined to change. In a nutshell we see demand for

    both urea & DAP will be soft in 2010E and should correct in 2011E. The last instance of excessive

    flooding in Pakistan (c. Sep 1992 i.e., FY93) resulted in FY93 agricultural growth of -5.3% (from

    +9.5% in FY92). Likewise, the year following 1992 floods, nitrogen application growth slowed down to

    +1% while phosphate demand slipped to -5%. A potential positive for the longer term is that the

    present increase in dams water level may actually bode well for agricultural growth and fertilizer

    demand one year out where lower than mean water availability has stunted growth in major crops in

    the last couple of years.

    Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited

    2About the Company

    Fauji Fertilizer Company (FFC) was incorporated in 1978 as a private limited company, in a joint

    venture between Fauji Foundation (a leading charitable trust in Pakistan) and Haldor Topsoe A/S of

    Denmark. Present share capital of the company stands at PKR6.8bn. FFC has 51%, 12.5% and 13.5%

    stake in Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim Limited (formerly FFC-Jordan Fertilizer Company Limited), Pak

    Maroc Phosphore (PMP) and Fauji Cement Company Limited (FCCL) respectively. FFC commenced

    commercial production of urea in 1982 with designed annual capacity of 570k tons, which has been

    subsequently augmented to 1.9mn tons at present. FFC currently has 678.5mn shares outstanding

    out of which 44% shares are held by Fauji Foundation, being the largest shareholder of the

    company.

    FFC is involved in manufacturing & sale of urea, and also imports and sells phosphate fertilizers.

    Fauji holds 50.88% share in Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim (FFBL), a listed company involved in

    manufacturing and sale of urea and DAP. FFBL is the only DAP manufacturer in the country. FC also

    has joint-venture investment with OCP of Morocco in phosphoric acid manufacturing operations

    (Pak Maroc Phosphore). PMP is a USD 240mn project with FFC holding 12.5% of the equity.

    Sone Ureamost widely used fertilizer in the country. Fertilizer is white in color, free flowing, readily

    soluble in water and both contain 46% Nitrogen. Because of its high solubility, it is suitable for

    solution fetilizers.

    Sona DAPis the most concentrated phosphatic fertilizer containing 46% P 2O5 and 18% Nitrogen. It

    is the widely used phosphatic fertilizer in the world as well as Pakistan. The solubility of DAP is more

    than 95%. Its nitrogen to phosphoris ratio (1 : 2.5 ) makes it an ideal fertilizer, to meet the initial

    requirement of most of the crops.

    Sona SOPThis fertilizer is an important source of Potash, which is a quality nutrient for production

    of crops especially fruits and vegetables. Potash improves the resistance of the plants against pests,

    diseases and stresses like water.

    FFC is currently the largest urea manufacturer in the country (Engro, after its 1.3mn ton expansion

    will overtake FFC to become the largest urea manufacturer in 2010) with a market share of 42%.

    The company has a production capacity of approximately 1.9mn tons. Being the largest urea

    manufacturer, FFC benefits from economies of scale, and as a result has the best gross, operating

    and net margins in the industry.

    Source: http://www.ffc.com.pk/contents/manfacturing.htm

    Vast distribution networks an important plus point

    FFC being the current market leader in urea, has the most stretched out distribution network. The

    company has its outreach in all four provinces with market leadership in Punjab, Baluchistan and

    NWFP provinces, whereas the companys prime competitor Engro only has a strong hold in Sindh

    region. FFC also markets FFBLs products through its distribution setup. The company charges

    commission for marketing these products. This ensures that FFBL is able to cost efficiently and

    effectively sell its produce throughout the country, which indirectly benefits FFC through dividendincome.

    Low leverage levels

    One of the strongest points for FFC is its low level of leverage. In the current environment of high

    interest rates, this attribute gives FFC an edge over its competitors which are suffering from high

    finance costs. FFC, currently does not have any significant expansion plans in sight other than BMRE

  • 8/10/2019 Finance review of Fertilizer sector 2014

    15/68

    15

    on plant 1 (this would not require any significant financing requirement). Hence, the debt level is

    expected to remain low. However, in case of any attractive future investment plans, FFC could

    easily leverage its balance sheet to fund the investments.

    Gas curtailment more than offset by price hike

    FFC and Engro have more than offset the negative impact of lost production by raising urea prices

    by PKR 75/50kg bag. The price increase was calculated on the assumption of 12% gas curtailment

    on Mari field based plants whereas the actual curtailment during 1h2010 has been only 4-5%. Mari

    field based fertilizers plants have witnessed margin increased during 2q2010 due to lesser than

    expected gas curtailment.

    Mulling purchase of Agritech Ltd

    FFC is reportedly contemplating bidding for Agritech Ltd (AGL) and its 100% owned subsidiary

    Hazara Phosphate Fertilizers (HPFL), as Azgard Nine Ltd, the majority shareholder of Agritech, has

    decided to completely divest its 80% equity stake in the company. Agritech currently has the

    capacity to produce 0.38mn tons of urea and 0.1mn tons of single super phosphate (SSP) per

    annum. The company plans to increase urea capacity to approx 0.46mn tons / annum through BMR

    in Cy10.

    While the details on the proposed transaction are not yet available, simplistic calculation indicatesthat FFC can easily fund its acquisition through leverage due to companys low current leverage.

    Assuming acquisition price is equal to prevailing market price of approximately PKR 23/share, FFC

    would require approx PKR 9bn to purchase 100% equity of the target company. Given that cash and

    liquid investments amounted to PKR 3.8bn as at Mar 31, 2010, out of which payment of ~PKR 2.7bn

    would have been made for the 1qCy10 dividend, FFC would be left with PKR 1.1bn in

    cash/investments. Assuming this as minimum cash balance required for working capital needs, it is

    likely that the company takes on PKR 9bn (100%) worth of debt to fund the acquisition.

    Furthermore, given FFCs strong internal cash generation, it is plausible that the company funds the

    acquisition through financing. As such, additional annual financial charges of PKR 1,350mn(assuming 15% cost of debt), is hardly significant compared to companys average annual EBITDA of

    Rs15bn.

    Wind power project expected to commence in 1qCy12

    Financial close for the USD 130mn, 50MW wind power project proposed to be set up at Jhimpir,

    Thatta is now expected to be achieved in Sept-2010 against earlier expectation of June-2010. The

    project is likely to start commercial production approx 16 months after financial close (1qCy12).

    Benefits from Engroscost increase and margin push

    To mitigate its rising expansion costs, stemming from depreciating Rupee and higher financial

    charges, Engro has been pushing for increase in urea selling prices. This as a result has directly

    benefited FFC, as the company has followed Engros price hikes. The above has resulted in margin

    increase for the company. During CY07 and CY08, local urea prices have increased by approximately

    PKR170/bag, while FFCs gross margins have increased by 800 bps over the same period. We expect

    Engro to continue with price hikes, (at least till local supply demand scenario remains favorable

    for manufacturers) which will continue to benefit FFC.

    2. Management compensation

    stock options as a mean to align managements interest with those of shareholders, but with the

    exception of ________, none of the CEOs own a significant stake in their companies. Details

    4. Social responsibility

    FFC CSR

    For Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited, social responsibility means facilitating communities and empowering

    its people. Sustainability shall always remain quintessential for the performance of CSR. Historically, FFC

    has always been socially a responsible corporate entity. The Company started its CSR per se as early as in

    1982 by introducing Agri-Services thus helping in poverty alleviation of common farmer and assisting them

    in sustained empowerment. Gradually FFC started interventions in most of the defined sec tors and has

    developed a history of about 30 years of contributions to the society.FFC, further plans to bring

    sustainability in its interventions and desires to achieve international standards by aligning CSR with our

    business objectives. FFC is also committed to improve quality and quantum of its interventions by

    maximizing on the available resources.

    Since FFC has become member of covenants like UNGC, the CSR has to be aligned with internationalguidelines. It is necessary to standardize the interventions and monitor the quality of interventions at a

    central level. We need to stay committed to its principles. Keeping the vision of responsible corporate entity

    in mind, FFC has moved in this direction. FFC has made quality as its core value when it comes to CSR

    intervention at any level, and in future this will remain as the prime objective.

    Relief

    In districts Rahim Yar Khan and Ghotki, flood had crippled the lives of people of the area. FFC thu

    took the task of shouldering its share of responsibility initially in flood relief effort for the affected

    natives of District Rahim Yar Khan and Ghotki. Some of these relief efforts were:

    Distribution of cooked food

    Dry ration for families

    Transport for Evacuation

    Mineral & FFC filtered Drinking Water

    Tents/ shelters

    Cloths, Blankets & Shoes for the affected families

    Soap & Washing Powder

    Crockery

    FFC employees voluntarily made remarkable contribution in their respective plant sites which

    amounts to millions. Food, drinking water, beddings, shelters and clothing was provided to the floo

    affectees in the relief phase of the operation. Medical teams from FFC medical units performed day

    night service for the flood affectees in Rahim Yar Khan and Ghotki, saving many precious lives.

    Rehabilitation

    FFC has taken up the challenge of reconstructing 3 villages of districts Rahim Yar Khan and Ghotk

    The intervention is planned in Reconstructing of Houses, Education, Health, Shelter, Water and

    Sanitation and Infrastructure. This project of rehabilitation and reconstruction will cost 102 million

    (PKR) out of which 50% will be contributed by FFC.

    A project has been devised to construct Houses, water supply, pathways & sanitation facility for the

    affected natives of Muaza Chacharan, Mohib Shah (Rahim Yar Khan) and Chuttoo Chachar

    (Ghotki). FFC while acting as a responsible corporate entity has lead from the front in this time of

    national grief and has played an exemplary role for other entities to come forward and contribute

    their share.

    Fatima Fertilizer CSR

    At Fatima Fertilizer Company, CSR revolves around a self-regulating mechanism and adheres to the laws, ethical

    standards and internal values.

    Fatima Fertilizer Welfare Hospital

    Fatima Fertilizer Welfare Hospital (FFWH) is a key project of Company's vision towards community welfare.

    The Company, under the guidance of Government of Punjab has undertaken to establish a modern welfare hospital i

    the vicinity of Plant site, to cater for the needs of underprivileged of the area.

    This is the first ever initiative of its kind and magnitude in private sector.

    Clean Development Mechanism

    Global warming has become the most important challenge the world is facing in the 21st century. A lot of research an

    development is being done for curtailing greenhouse gas emissions. Following its accession to the Kyoto Protocol of

    the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in January 2005 Pakistan made the

    Ministry of Environment the Designated National Authority (DNA) for CDM under the protocol. A CDM cell was

    created in the Ministry in August 2005.

    In order to care for the environment and greenhouse effect, the Management has installed a Clean Development

    Mechanism (CDM) Project on its Nitric Acid plant.

    It is expected that about 1.3 million CER's per annum will accrue from the start of the project up to 2020.

    Mitsubishi Corporation has assisted in implementation of the project and is now in the process of registration of

    Fatima Fertilizer's CDM Project with the United Nations.

    Uhde has provided the technology and equipment and also helping with the implementation of CDM for Fatima

    Fertilizer.

    V. Risk Profile

    1. Market risk and return

    In analyzing the risk characteristics of the three companies we first looked at their returns over

    a ____ year period compared them to the returns of a broad based market index such as the KSE 100.

    expected for ______ and _____. _ _ _ _ _ _ on the other hand, is more mature less volatile company

    characterized by steady income stream and cash flows.

    To analyze the market risk of the three firms we regressed their returns againstbroad based

    market index and used the coefficient of the regression as a measure of market risk. We used __ year

    monthly returns for the regression. The choice of index reflected the marginal investor in each

    company, assuming that each investor is exposed to the same market risks in their respective

    market.

    Slope of the regression - Beta

    The coefficients of the individual regressions are the companies betas and are used as a

    measure of the company exposure to market risk. The analysis indicates that ____________ is the

    company with highest exposure to market risk (regression beta of ____), which is also more/less than

    __ times the industry average. This is a reflection of high indebtedness and negative and volatile

    earnings. _______ and ____________ on the other hand have regression betas much lower than

    the industry averages. The reasons behind the different risk profiles of each firm will be examined

    in greater details further in the report.

    We also examined the excess returns of each firm as measured by its Treynor ratio. The

    Treynor ratio measures the excess return of a stock given its level of risk (non-diversifiable) and is

    computed with the formula below:

    TreynorRstock " R

    =!

    Figure 14 below presents the Treynor ratios and the spread between stock Treynor ratio and

    the market Treynor ratio over different investment horizons. The results suggest that over the last 5

    years Ryanair had highest excess return compared to the market taking into consideration its risk.

    None of the stocks outperformed the market over a 10 year period. Over the last couple of years the

    best performing stock was Asur. These two stock were excluded from the 10 year horizon analysis, as

    data for them was not available.

    We further used the intercept of the regression to compare the actual stock performance of

    each company to the market expectation. For each stock we computed Jensensalpha equal to

    In t er cep t R i sk Fr ee r a t e x (1 Bet a), using the average monthly risk free over the period. The

    results were annualized using the formula:

    (1+Mo n thly excess ret u rn)12 1

    The annualized returns indicated that on average all companies except for ___________

    generated returns that exceeded the markets expectations. In addition, comparing _________

    high/low excess return to the negative/Positive industry Jensensalpha suggests that the company

    performed better/Worse than expected at a time when the sector as whole did not meet the markets

    expectations.

    R -sq u a r ed

    R-squared of the regression provides information as to what proportion of the variability in

    returns could be explained by the regression. The market non-diversifiable risk represents

    __%,__% and ___% for _________, __________, and ________ respectively. The remainder is

    company specific, non-diversifiable risk. While the relatively low/high R-squared for ______and

    ________ could be explained by the fact that they were small, fast growing companies during the

    observed period and were facing numerous company specific challenges in establishing their business

    models, we were surprised to estimate that __________was characterized by a large proportion of (___%)

    of company specific, diversifiable risk.

    S t a n d a r d er r o r s

    The standard errors of the regression betas appear to be _________, suggesting a ______interval

    for the possible values of the beta. This is one of the reasons why we considered an

    ____________approach to measuring the companys exposure to market risk, which is described below.

    2. Bottom up betas

    As an alternative approach to regressions betas we considered using bottom-up betas for our

    analysis.

    Bottom-up betas

    After estimating unlevered beta for each firm we levered back the beta to estimate a firm beta

    that reflects the additional risk associated with financial leverage. The sector betas were unlevered and

    re-levered using the formulae bellow:

    3. Cost of equity

    The computed bottom up beta has been use to compute the cost of equity for the firms. The cost of

    equity has been calculate using the Capital Asset Pricing Model and includes the following inputs:

    Risk free rate of return (Rf) -in estimating the cost of equity we have used long term government

    bond denominated in the respective currency to come up with the risk free. The current 10 year

    bond yields were used in the analysis . The 10 year maturity of the bond used reflects the long

    term investment horizon of the likelyprojects. Other periods should be considered for shorter

    term projects.

    Market risk premium (Rp)- this measure reflects the excess return to which an investor is entitled

    as a compensation for the higher risk he /she undertakes by investing in risky security rather than a

    ??

    riskless one. We have used the geometric average of excess returns from the market over long

    term Treasury bonds for the period between 19___ and 20__.

    Betaas computed above.

    The cost of equity, for all companies except Asur, is defined as:

    Ke = Rf + x Rp

    The cost of equity for Asur, is defined as:

    Ke = Rf + x (Rp+Country Risk)

    The cost of equity computation is summarized in Figure 18.

    4. Cost of debt

    The other important component of the cost of capital is the cost of debt. It reflects the

    perceived risk of the companies by lenders and debt investors, or its credit risk. The two components

    of credit risk are default risk (or the probability that a company will cease making payments as agreed

    in the credit agreement) and non-recovery risk (or the probability of recovery of the capital provided,

    once the company goes in default). More detailed analysis of the borrowing policies of all firms is

    presented in Section VII Capital Structure.

    The cost of debt for each company has two components a risk free rate of return and

    compensation for the credit risk associated with the company. In estimating the credit risk for each

    company we took __ approaches:

    write down approaches used company wise in just one line each

    After obtaining the respective credit ratings we looked at the credit default spreads

    corresponding to each rating, which is a measure of the risk premium required. For all companies we

    used the credit default spread embedded in current yields of publicly traded debt. We computed the

    cost of debt for each by adding the default spread to the risk free rate for the respective company. The

    results are presented in Figure 19.

    After computing the cost of debt for each firm we computed the after tax cost of debt. The after tax cost of debt

    reflects the fact that interest payable on debt is deductible from the operating income for tax purposes and results in

    tax savings for the firms.

    The market value of equity for each firm has been estimated by multiplying the number of

    shares outstanding for each company by the current share price. The market values of equity are

    presented in Figure 20.

    In estimating the market value of debt we again took __ approaches:

    Use the current value for debt that is publicly traded and information is obtainable; Project interest and principal payments and discount them back at the current cost of

    debt as estimated above.

    In projecting the interest payments we have used the current interest payments to book value

    of debt ratio as a proxy for the average interest rate payable on the debt; and the average maturity of

    the outstanding debt.

    The ability of each firm to grow and create value for its stockholders ultimately depends on its

    management capability to identify and undertake projects that generate returns exceeding the cost of

    capital employed. In this section we will analyze the quality of the projects that the three companies

    undertake ad review the past performance of the companies as measured by indicators such as Return

    on Capital (ROC) and Return on Equity (ROE).

    2. Measuring Returns

    ROE and ROC

    For each of the company we computed the Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Capital (ROC) asfollows:

    where:

    ROE =NetIncome

    (BVEt +BVEt!1 ) / 2ROC =

    Op.Income(1!T )

    (BVEt +BVDt +BVEt!1 +BVDt!1) / 2

    be observed, the three companies employ very different kinds of debt:

    FFC check the infoand verify

    has outstanding a variety of debt notes, from bank debt, plain vanilla bonds to more structured debtinstruments. On one hand this is driven by the necessity to tailor the debt to match the

    companys cash flow profile and risk, which is very specific. On the other hand this is a symptom of

    the financial difficulties the company has been going through and the need to raise capital in any form

    it was available.

    ____________has _________ debt outstanding and this is a reflection of both the early stage of the

    life cycle is in and its ability to generate cash flows, thus funding growth largely with internal funds.

    VIII. Optimal Capital Structure

    1. Current Cost of Capital / Financing Mix

    In the table below we computed the current cost of capital for each of our companies, with the

    cost of equity based on a levered bottom-up beta and using market values to compute the debt/equity

    weights. As expected given their operating and financial profiles, __________ has the highest cost of

    capital and __________ the lowest.

    We also applied the APV approach with American airlines in order to verify the optimal capital

    structure we have identified earlier. Given its state of financial distress we believed that this additional

    approach can give us more insight about their real debt capacity.

    Our basic assumptions in this process are:

    Cost of Bankruptcy: direct and indirect costs of bankruptcy are estimated very high given the high

    capital intensive business model and the complex regulations of the industry. Our guess estimate is

    45% of firm value.

    Tax rate is assumed at 35% stable

    Unlevered firm value is calculated as Current Firm Valuetax benefits on debt + Expected

    Bankruptcy cost.

    The analysis yields us an optimal debt ratio of 30%, not far from the results obtained with the

    optimal capital structure model.

    However, given the high subjectivity of the bankruptcy cost, we have run a sensitivity analysis

    that, taking into account also the tax rate, provide a measure of the debt ratio that maximize the firm

    value.

    In addition, we looked at the sector and the debt ratios at which other firms in the fertilizer

    industry operate. There are only 4 listed companies in sector and we analyzed 3 of them which are our

    companies too, for their debt to capital ratios. In order to account for the difference in size, risk and tax

    rate we regressed the market debt ratio against ln(Revenues), beta and effective tax rate for each

    company. The resultant regression is as follows:M a rket D eb t t o C a p i t a l = 0.387 - 0.260 Eff Ta x

    IX. Mechanics of moving towards the optimal

    Quantitative Analysis and Overall Recommendation on Financing Mix

    To further evaluate the optimal debt characteristics for each company we regressed the firm

    value and the EBITDA of each of our companies against: Change in Long Term Rate, GDP growth,

    Change in local currency, Change in inflation.

    The Firm value regression results and the conclusion for each company are shown below. Regressions

    on EBITDA against macroeconomic variables are presented in Appendix IV.

    FFC

    Long Term Interest Rates: very weak/strong R square and T statistic. The regression

    suggests that the duration of the operating assets of the company is very low/high/normal. .

    GDP Growth: The companys earnings are _______ and shows a positive/negative

    coefficient with EBITDA. R-squared is fairly significant: The negative/positive coefficient

    with firm value is likely to be related to the high leverage: high GDP growth rates are

    usually related to high interest rates that affects negatively the firm value.

    Currency: A weaker currency helps EBITDA, but at the same time has a negative effect

    on firm value. Revenues in foreign currencies (about __% of total sales) although the effect

    is small (probably offset by foreign currency costs and expenses.

    Inflation: Does not impact significantly EBITDA, while is negatively correlated to the firm

    value, probably due to the high amount of debt, hence higher discount rate.

    The regression results for FV are presented below

    L o n g Ter m In t er est R a t es: - the regression on change of firm value on change in long term

    rates indicates that the average duration of the operating assets of the firm is approximately

    _____ year

    G D P G r o w t h: the firm value is positively related to the GDP growth of countries

    (where the companies generates its revenues), while the operating income is

    negatively/positivel related. One possible interpretation of this is that higher GDP growth

    boasts companyslong term growth prospects.

    Currency: - the value of the firm does/does not appear to be influenced by the exchange

    rate, stronger currency has significant/insignificant negative impact on operating income.

    Infla t i o n : ________firm value seems to be significantly related to the inflation rate.

    Long Term Interest Rates: Both regressions have a negative/positive coefficient which

    points to a longer/shorter duration of debt, approx. __years. It should be noted that the T-

    statistic and the R2 of both regressions are very weak/strong.

    GDP Growth: ______ is positively correlated to GDP growth but shows a low degree

    of cyclicality as evidenced by the coefficients.

    C u r r e n c y :_______ is not/is influenced by changes in the British Pound.

    Inflation: the FV regression shows a high positive sensitivity to changes in inflation, which

    therefore suggests the use of floating/Fixed rate debt
