14. Financial Instruments

General

The group states its investments at balance date at estimated market value. The trustees consider that the fair value of the financial assets is identical to the value in the statement of financial position.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The group, from time to time, has significant funds in trading bank deposits. The group limits risk by spreading the deposits over several trading banks. The group has not required collateral or other security to support its financial statements.

The group further limits risk through its policy of placing investment funds with five separate fund managers, with each fund manager having an investment mandate which requires that they diversify their investments on the group’s behalf. The group has sought and obtained the advice of professional financial advisers prior to making its investment allocation and placement decisions.

Interest Rate Risk

The bank deposits are sensitive to changes in interest rates, as are a proportion of the funds managed by the fund managers, and the loans to Topoclimate South Trust and Nga Hau Wha Society.
