Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)2.14 Financial assets (cont’d)a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or lossFinancial assets classifi ed as held for trading (including derivative fi nancial instruments) are classifi ed as fi nancialassets at fair value through profi t or loss. Financial assets are classifi ed as held for trading if they are acquired for thepurpose of selling in the near term. Derivative fi nancial instruments are also classifi ed as held for trading unless theyare designated as effective hedging instruments. Gain or losses on fi nancial assets classifi ed at fair value throughprofi t or loss are recognised in the profi t and loss account.b) Loan and receivablesNon-derivative fi nancial assets with fi xed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market areclassifi ed as loans and receivables. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method,less impairment losses. Gains and losses are recognised in profi t and loss account when the loans and receivablesare derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.The Group classifi es the following fi nancial assets as loan and receivables:• cash and cash equivalents• trade and other debtors, including amounts due from subsidiaries, associated companies, affi liated companiesand a joint venture, loans to associated companies and long-term depositsc) Available-for-sale financial assetsThe Group classifi es its long-term investment as available-for-sale fi nancial assets.Available-for-sale fi nancial assets are those non-derivative fi nancial assets that are designated as available-for-saleor are not classifi ed in any of the other categories. After initial recognition, available-for-sale fi nancial assets aremeasured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised in the fair value adjustment reserve until the investmentis derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired at which time the cumulative gain or losspreviously reported in equity is included in the profi t and loss account.The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised fi nancial markets is determined by referenceto the relevant Exchange’s quoted market bid prices at the close of the business on the balance sheet date. Forinvestments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Investments inequity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliablymeasured are measured at cost less impairment losses.Notes to the Financial Statements 96Annual Report 2006
