26.4 Fair Value of Financial Instruments<br />

The carrying values of the financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair values. Fair value is the<br />

amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an<br />

arm’s length transaction.<br />

The Foundation measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the<br />

inputs used in making the measurements:<br />

- Level 1: Quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument.<br />

- Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable inputs, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived<br />

from prices).<br />

- Level 3: Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs.<br />

Investments in certificates of closed end funds and units of open end funds are measured using quoted prices in<br />

stock exchange redemption amount of units of open end fund, hence, fair value of such investments fall within Level<br />

1 in fair value hierarchy mentioned above.<br />

26.5 Fund Management<br />

The Foundation is funded by contributions received from its members and donors from different sections of society<br />

within and outside Pakistan.<br />
