I don't remember ever coming across this but, off the top of my head, I don't believe that we'd do anything! The associate, although we do have significant influence, is a separate entity not under our control. As such, it has made up it's own mind to borrow money and we have been happy to lend it I can't see any reason to cancel our "Loan interest received" against the associate's "Finance charges" expense OK?
