(Continued)
Market risk
Cash flow interest rate risk
The EAA is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk
through the impact of rate changes on interest
bearing financial assets. Interest bearing financial
assets are mainly balances with banks which are
all short term in nature. Therefore, any future
variation in interest rates will not have a significant
impact on the results of the EAA.
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty
will default on its contractual obligations resulting
in financial loss to the EAA. The EAA’s exposure of
its counterparties are continuously monitored,
received and approved.
In order to minimise the credit risk, the EAA
reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables
at the end of each reporting period to ensure that
adequate impairment losses are made for
irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the EAA
considers that the EAA’s credit risk is significantly
reduced.
The credit risk on time deposits and liquid funds is
limited because the counterparties are banks with
good reputation.
Liquidity risk
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management
rests with the management of the EAA, which has
built an appropriate liquidity risk management
framework for the management of the EAA’s short,
medium and long-term funding and liquidity
management requirements. The management of
the EAA manages liquidity risk by maintaining
adequate reserves and continuously monitors the
forecast and actual cash flows.
