Level 1 – uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – uses inputs for the asset or liability other than quoted prices, that are observable either directly or indirectly
Level 3 – uses inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data, such as internal models or other valuation methods.
Level 1 balances consist of available-for-sale investments of £18m (2012/13 £45m) and listed investments of £9m (2012/13 £11m) designated
at fair value through prot and loss.
Level 2 balances consist of investments in AAA rated liquidity funds denominated in Sterling of £1,774m (2012/13 £530m) are classied as
available-for-sale.
