Annual Financial Report <strong>2011</strong><br />

Finance<br />

This category includes all indirect and direct risks which have a significant effect on securing<br />

liquidity, securing solvency and thus the going concern of the <strong>conwert</strong> Group. It comprises<br />

securing income, securing cash and cash equivalents and hedges of interest charges on<br />

loans. In addition, it contains risks related to the timely and correct reporting to authorities<br />

and investors.<br />

<strong>conwert</strong> manages its liquidity requirements on the basis of continuously updated liquidity<br />

planning, which takes into account the probable and foreseeable cash inflows and outflows.<br />

Nevertheless, it cannot be ruled out that correlating endogenous or exogenous events in<br />

other risk categories can lead to liquidity shortages. With respect to compliance with timely<br />

reporting to authorities and investors, improvements in the systems used, their operational<br />

safety and the processes and methods applied are made on an ongoing basis. In the case of<br />

a longer-term complete failure of the systems used, delays may occur which make timely<br />

reporting impossible.<br />
