147 SWIRE PROPERTIES ANNUAL REPORT 2024 2. Financial Risk Management (continued) (iv) Liquidity exposure The Group takes liquidity risk into consideration when deciding its sources of funds and their tenors, so as to avoid over reliance on funds from any one source and to prevent substantial refinancing in any one period. Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by the head office. The head office monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets and, if applicable, external regulatory or legal requirements. The tables below analyse the contractual undiscounted cash flows of the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net- settled derivative financial liabilities by relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining periods at the year-end date to the earliest contractual maturity dates.
