FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

availability of committed credit facilities to support funding requirements and the ability to close

out market positions. The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and

actual cash flows and maintaining adequate liquidity reserves to support forecast net business

expenditure requirements for a minimum of twelve months on a rolling monthly basis.

The Group has a $1,500m Australian Dollar Domestic Note programme of which $500m is issued.

Note that no bonds matured in the current financial year (note 6(d)). The Group also has access

to business card facilities of $2m (2016: $2m)
