maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are

subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

g) Investments

The Group classifies its investments in the following categories: investments at fair value through

income statement and investments available for sale. The classification depends on the purpose for

which the investments were acquired and is determined at initial recognition by the management.

(i)

Investments at fair value through income statement

This category has two sub-categories: investments held for trading, and those designated at fair value

through statement of income at inception.

An investment is classified as held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the

short term or if it forms part of an identified portfolio of investments that are managed together and

has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit making or it is a derivative that is not designated and

effective as a hedging instrument.
