20. Cash and cash equivalents
The majority of the Groups cash is held in bank deposits, money market funds or in repurchase agreements which
have a maturity of three months or less to enable us to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
Accounting policies
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible
to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignicant risk of changes in value.
