CLOT<br />

y) New accounting standards<br />

AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2009-11<br />

Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising<br />

from AASB 9 (effective from 1 January 2013) AASB 9 Financial<br />

Instruments addresses the classification and measurement of<br />

financial assets and is likely to affect the group’s accounting<br />

for its financial assets. The standard is not applicable until<br />

1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption.<br />

Revised AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures and AASB<br />

2009-12 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards<br />

(effective from 1 January 2011). In December 2009 the AASB<br />

issued a revised AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. It<br />

is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after<br />

1 January 2011 and must be applied retrospectively. The<br />

amendment clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related<br />

party. When the amendments are applied, the Fund will need<br />

to disclose any transactions between its subsidiaries and its<br />

associates. However, there will be no impact on any of the<br />

amounts recognised in the financial statements.<br />

AASB 2010-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting<br />

Standards arising from the <strong>Annual</strong> Improvements Project and<br />

AASB 2010-4 Further Amendments to Australian Accounting<br />

Standards arising from the <strong>Annual</strong> Improvements Project<br />

(effective from 1 July 2010/1 January 2011). In June 2010,<br />

the AASB made a number of amendments to Australian<br />

Accounting Standards as a result of the IASB’s annual<br />

improvements project. The group will apply the amendments<br />

from 1 July 2010. It does not expect that any adjustments will<br />

be necessary as a result of applying the revised rules.<br />

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have<br />

been published that are not mandatory for the 30 June 2010<br />

reporting period other than those mentioned above. The<br />

Fund has assessed the new standards and interpretations as<br />

unlikely to have a material impact.<br />

2. Financial risk management<br />

The consolidated entity’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, which include market risk (currency risk and cash<br />

flow interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity’s overall risk management program focuses on the<br />

unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the group.<br />

CLOT uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to mitigate cash flow interest rate risk.<br />

CLOT uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity<br />

analysis in the case of interest rate and foreign exchange risk, age analysis for credit risk,and cash flow forecasts for<br />

liquidity risks.<br />

CLOT holds the following financial instruments:<br />
