28. Financial instruments<br />
Financial risk management objectives and policies<br />
Exposure to credit, interest rate, liquidity and foreign currency risks arises in the normal course of Group’s<br />
business. The Group monitors the interest rate trend and currency exchange rate on an ongoing basis.<br />
Credit risk<br />
The Group’s primary exposure to credit risk arises through its receivables. The management has an informal<br />
credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.<br />
The Group also places excess funds with reputable licensed financial institutions. The management is of the<br />
view that credit risk exposure to licensed financial institutions is minimal.<br />
There were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk for the Group is<br />
represented by the carrying amount of the receivables presented in the balance sheet.<br />
Interest rate risk<br />
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk mainly arises through its fixed deposits and borrowings.<br />
