Financial Risk Management Policies

The directors of the company meet on a regular basis to analyse financial risk management strategies and policies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts to assist the company in meeting its financial targets, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance.

Note 17B: Credit risk

The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position.

The company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the company.

Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the audit committee in accordance with approved policy.

The following table details the company's trade and other receivables exposed to credit risk (prior to collateral and other credit enhancements) with ageing analysis and impairment provided thereon.
