Financial Risk Management (continued) (d) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group or the Trust may encounter difficulty in meeting financial obligations due to shortage of funds. The Group’s and the Trust’s exposure to liquidity risk arises primarily from mismatches of the maturities of financial assets and liabilities. The Manager monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. Typically, the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a reasonable period, including the servicing of financial obligations. The Group strives to maintain available banking facilities at a reasonable level to meet its investment opportunities. The Group has in place various credit facilities, a Multicurrency Medium Term Note Programme with a programme limit of $5.0 billion and a Euro Medium Term Note Programme with a programme limit of $7.0 billion (Note 14).
