3 Financial risk management and fair values of

financial instruments

(a) Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities are exposed to a variety of

financial risks: interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity

r i sk . The Company ’ s ove r a l l r i sk managemen t

programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial

markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects

of these risks on the Company’s financial performance.

Risk management is carried out by the Company’s

management under policies approved by the Board. The

Company’s management identifies, evaluates and

manages significant financial risks in the Company’s

business units. The Board provides guidance for overall

risk management.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest

rates will impact the earnings of the Company. The

Company’s major interest-bearing assets comprise bank

deposits and held-to-maturity investments (collectively

“interest bearing assets”) and are primarily issued at fixed

rates which therefore do not expose the Company to cash

flow interest rate risk.

The Company has no significant borrowings other than

the non interest-bearing advance from the immediate

holding company.

(ii) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the potential failure of the

Company’s counterparties to meet their obligations under

financial contracts. The Company is exposed to credit risk

on cash and bank balances, investments in securities, as

well as trade and other receivables.

The Company’s bank deposits are deposited with banks

of high credit quality in Hong Kong to minimise the credit

exposure.

財務風險管理及金融工具之公允

價值

(a)

財務風險因素

本公司之業務承受多種財務風險:利率風

險、信貸風險及流動資金風險。本公司之

整體風險管理計劃集中於金融市場之難預

測性,並尋求盡量降低該等風險對本公司

財務表現可能構成之不利影響。

風險管理由本公司管理層根據董事局核准

之政策執行。本公司管理層負責識別、評

估及管理公司個別業務單位存在之重大財

務風險。董事局提供整體財務風險管理指

導。

(i)

利率風險

利率風險是指市場利率變化影響公司收益

之風險。本公司之主要生息資產包括銀行

存款和持有至到期日投資(統稱「計息資

產」),這些資產主要以固定利率發行,因

此不會使本公司承受著現金流利率風險。

除直接控股公司提供的無息墊款外,本公

司並無任何重大借貸。

(ii)

信貸風險

信貸風險起因於本公司交易對手未能履行

財務合約之責任。本公司承受著來自現金

及銀行結存、證券投資、應收賬款及其他

應收款項之信貸風險。

本公司之銀行存款均存放於香港有高信貸

質素之銀行,務求盡量降低信貸風險。
