FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial risk management objectives The consolidated entity’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity uses different methods to measure and manage the different types of risks to which it is exposed. These methods include monitoring the levels of exposure to interest rates and foreign exchange, ageing analysis and monitoring of specific credit allowances to manage credit risk, and, rolling cash flow forecasts to manage liquidity risk. Market risk Foreign currency risk The consolidated entity operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the US dollars (‘USD’). Foreign exchange risk arises from future transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency and net investments in foreign operations. As of 30 June 2021, the consolidated entity did not hold derivative financial instruments in managing its foreign currency, however, the consolidated entity may from time to time enter into hedging arrangements where circumstances are deemed appropriate. The consolidated entity used natural hedging to reduce the foreign currency risk, which involved processing USD payments from cash held in USD. Foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency of Australian Dollars (‘AUD’) have exposure to the local currency of these subsidiaries and any other currency these subsidiaries trade in. The carrying amount of the consolidated entity’s foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at the reporting date was as follows: Assets Liabilities 2021 2020 2021 2020 Consolidated $ $ $ $ US dollars 21,072,592 272,450 3,447,803 2,196,281 Euros - - 15,943 - 21,072,592 272,450 3,463,746 2,196,281 The consolidated entity had net assets denominated in foreign currencies of $17,608,845 as at 30 June 2021 (2020: net liabilities $1,923,831).
