34. Financial risk management continued<br />
With regard to credit risk related to financial instruments and cash deposits, the Group’s policy is to place deposits only with financial institutions,<br />
which satisfy minimum ratings and other criteria set by the Balance Sheet <strong>Management</strong> Committee. Investments of surplus funds are made only<br />
with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and<br />
therefore mitigate financial loss through potential counterparty failure. The Risk Committee monitors the Group’s counterparty exposures. The<br />
Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at 31 December <strong>2010</strong> and 31 December 2009 is the carrying<br />
amounts as illustrated in the cash and cash equivalents note and in the trade and other receivables note.<br />
The table below contains an analysis of current and overdue financial assets for the Group:<br />
