Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023
(u)
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and
other financial institutions, property pre-sale proceeds held by solicitors that are held for meeting
short-term cash commitments, and other short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in
value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. 103 Bank overdrafts that are
repayable on demand and form an integral part of the group's cash management are also included
as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated cash flow
statement. Cash and cash equivalents are assessed for ECL (see note 1(n)(i)).
Trade and other payables (other than refund labilities)
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition,
trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would be
immaterial, in which case they are stated at invoice amounts.
Preference share capital
The group's redeemable preference shares are classified as financial liabilities, because they bear
non-discretionary dividends and are redeemable in cash by the holders. Non-discretionary dividends
thereon are recognised as interest expense in profit or loss as accrued.
Non-redeemable preference shares are classified as equity, because they bear discretionary
dividends, do not contain any obligations to deliver cash or other financial assets and do not require
settlement in a variable number of the group's equity instruments. Discretionary dividends thereon
are recognised as equity distributions on approval by the company's shareholders.
Interest-bearing borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are measured initially at fair value less transaction costs. Subsequently,
these borrowings are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense
is recognised in accordance with note 1(cc).

103
In order for instruments, such as wealth management products, to be included as "cash equivalents" for the purposes of the cash
flow statement, it is necessary for the instruments to satisfy both of the following criteria:
i.
ii.
The instrument needs to be a "short-term, highly liquid investment that is readily convertible into known amounts of cash and
which is subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition"; and
The instrument needs to be held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other
purposes.
This cash flow statement classification is not dependent on whether the instruments pass or fail the "solely payments of principal and
interest" test. Therefore, instruments included in "cash and cash equivalents" could be measured at either amortised cost or FVPL
and similarly, instruments excluded from "cash and cash equivalents" could also be measured at either amortised cost or FVPL,
depending on the characteristics of the instrument and the reason for holding it.
