Our settlement activities are subject to foreign exchange risk resulting from foreign exchange rate fluctuations.
This risk is typically limited to the one business day between setting the foreign exchange rates and clearing the
financial transactions.
Interest Rate Risk
Our interest rate sensitive assets are our investments in debt securities, which we generally hold as available-for-
sale investments. Our general policy is to invest in high quality securities, while providing adequate liquidity and
maintaining diversification to avoid significant exposure. The fair value and maturity distribution of the Company’s
