Banks shall assess the Unhedged Foreign Currency Exposure (UFCE) of entities with FCE by obtaining information on UFCE from the concerned entity.

Provided that the information on UFCE shall be obtained from entities on a quarterly basis based on statutory audit, internal audit or self-declaration by the concerned entity.
Provided further that UFCE information shall be audited and certified by the statutory auditors of the entity, at least on an annual basis.
