FINANCIAL RISKS continued

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices (interest rate and currency risk) will affect the

Group’s income or the value of its holding of financial instruments. The objective of market risk

management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while

optimising the return.

The Group is exposed to risks from movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates that affect

its assets, liabilities and anticipated future transactions. The Group is not exposed to significant levels

of price risk.

Fair value estimation

Fair value measurement hierarchy:

•

•

Level 1: fair value based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or

liabilities;

•

•

Level 2: fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are

observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is,

derived from prices); or

•

•

Level 3: fair value based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market

data (that is, unobservable inputs).

Contingent consideration, included in trade and other payables, are level 3 financial liabilities.

Changes in level 3 instruments are as follows:
