The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of assets and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. it considers reasonable and supportive forward-looking information.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Deposit in Banks and other Financial instruments
