When it can be demonstrated that the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and benefits related to assignment of receivables, particularly the credit risk, the items concerned are derecognised.
Otherwise, the operation is considered as a financing operation, and the receivables remain in the balance sheet assets, with recognition of a corresponding financial liability.

The Group assigned trade receivables for a total of €792 millions at 31 December 2020, mainly concerning Edison, EDF SA and Dalkia (€1,042 million at 31 December 2019).
As most assignment operations are carried out on a recurrent, without-recourse basis, the corresponding receivables are no longer carried in the Group’s consolidated balance sheet.
Contract assets are rights held by an entity to receive a consideration in return for goods or services supplied to customers, when such rights are conditional on something other than the passage of time. Most contract assets mature within one year.
The contract assets included in receivables represent an amount of €389 million at 31 December 2020 and €400 million at 31 December 2019 and mainly concern Framatome, Dalkia and EDF Renewables.
