28 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)
(b)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its
financial liabilities that are to be settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to
managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities
when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage
to the Group’s reputation.
The Trustee-Manager monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by
management to finance the Group’s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including interest payments and excluding the
impact of netting agreements:
