NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />
23 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUE (CONTINUED)<br />
(d)<br />
Foreign currency risk<br />
The <strong>Group</strong>’s businesses are principally conducted in RMB and most of the <strong>Group</strong>’s monetary<br />
assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. Accordingly, the directors consider the<br />
<strong>Group</strong>’s exposure to foreign currency risk is not significant. The <strong>Group</strong> does not employ any<br />
financial instruments for hedging purposes.<br />
On the other hand, RMB is not a freely convertible currency and the PRC government<br />
may at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions<br />
in the future. Changes in the foreign exchange control system may prevent the <strong>Group</strong><br />
from satisfying sufficient foreign currency demand and the <strong>Group</strong> may not be able to pay<br />
dividends in foreign currencies to its shareholders.<br />
(e)<br />
Fair value<br />
All financial assets and liabilities are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair<br />
values as at 31 December 2012 and 2011, except for the amounts due from/to related parties<br />
which have no fixed repayment terms. Given these terms, it is not meaningful to disclose the<br />
fair value of such balances.<br />
The fair value of available-for-sale financial assets is determined by reference to their quoted<br />
market prices at the balance sheet date without any deduction for transaction costs.<br />
