Oil and gas enterprises'financial risks and controls
Oil and gas enterprises are facing the development trend of financialization in such five aspects as oil and gas capital,price,products,enterprise value,and their external effects.The characteristics of the oil and gas industry and the internationalization of the enterprise's operation have determined that oil and gas enterprises are facing price risk,exchange rate risk,interest rate risk and systemic financial risk,as well as the risk of interconnection between financial markets.In this regard,oil and gas enterprises should fully identify risks and impacts,determine risk control objectives based on their risk tolerance,establish a financial risk control system and authorization system,effectively select appropriate financial instruments for risk management operations,and build an effective financial risk control path.As industrial entities,oil and gas enterprises should always carry out financial risk management based on the basic principles of hedging,business matching,simplicity,and resolute stop-loss,not conduct transactions for the purpose of achieving profits,and take the reduction of the adverse impact of financial market fluctuations on business performance as their control objective.
