(c) Currency risk
Currency risk arises on fnancial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional
currency in which they are measured.
The Group is not exposed to signifcant foreign currency risk on its operating activities as most transactions
and balances are denominated in Singapore dollars, except for certain cash and bank balances, other
receivables and payables which are denominated in Malaysia Ringgit (“RM”) at Group level. The Company
is not exposed to signifcant foreign currency risk as all the fnancial assets and fnancial liabilities are
denominated in Singapore dollars.
