28.    FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 
 
Financial risk factors 
 
The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk from its use of financial instruments. The Board of
Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework. The
Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate
risk limits and controls, and monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed
regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group's activities. The Group's overall strategy remains
unchanged from last year. 
 
(i)      Credit risk 
 
Credit risk arises when a failure by counter parties to discharge their obligations could reduce the amount of future cash
inflows from financial assets on hand at the statement of financial position date.  The Group has policies in place to
ensure that sales are made to customers with an appropriate credit history and monitors on a continuous basis the ageing
profile of its receivables. The Group's trade receivables are secured with the property sold. Cash balances are mainly held
with high credit quality financial institutions and the Group has policies to limit the amount of credit exposure to any
financial institution. 
 
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the
end of the reporting year was as follows: 
 
                                              Carrying amount

Credit quality of trade and other receivables 
 
The Group's trade and other receivables that relate to business combinations and to VAT receivables are neither past nor
due.  The amount of VAT receivables is primarily receivable from the Greek government.

(ii)     Liquidity risk 
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match. An unmatched position
potentially enhances profitability, but can also increase the risk of losses. The Group has procedures with the object of
minimising such losses such as maintaining sufficient cash and other highly liquid current assets and by having available
an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. 
 
The following tables present the contractual maturities of financial liabilities. The tables have been prepared on the
basis of contractual undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities, and on the basis of the earliest date on which the
Group might be forced to pay.

The Group, as at the date of financial position, had secured individual financing facilities for its individual active
projects, which are monitored on an on-going basis. 
 
(iii)    Market risk 
 
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates, equity prices and foreign exchange rates,
will affect the Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. 
 
Interest rate risk 
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest
rates. The Group's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates as the
Group has no significant interest-bearing assets. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow
interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group's
management monitors the interest rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly. 
 
Sensitivity analysis 
 
An increase of 100 basis points in interest rates at 31 December would have decreased equity and profit or loss by E2,044
thousand (2013: E1,503 thousand). This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates,
remain constant. For a decrease of 100 basis points there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and other
equity. 
 
Currency risk 
 
Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a
currency that is not the Group's measurement currency. The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various
currency exposures primarily with respect to the United States dollar. The Group's management monitors the exchange rate
fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly. 
 
The Group's exposure to foreign currency risk for its use of financial instruments was as follows:

Sensitivity analysis 
 
A 10% strengthening of the euro against the following currencies at 31 December would affected the measurement of financial
instruments denominated in a foreign currency and increased/(decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown
below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. For a 10% weakening
of the euro against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and other equity.

Capital management 
 
The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while improving the return to
shareholders.  The Board of Directors is committed to implementing a package of measures that are expected to focus on the
achievement of the Group's investment objectives, achieve cost efficiencies and strengthen its corporate governance.  The
Board of Directors has decided on 2 June 2015 to proceed with a capital increase of up to E75 million through the placing
of new shares through an accelerated book building procedure. The proceeds of the fund raise will be used to finance the
implementation of the above-mentioned objectives and provide working capital to the Group. 
 
29.    Commitments 
 
As of 31 December 2014, the Group had a total of E19,446 thousand contractual capital commitments on property, plant and
equipment (2013: E16,499 thousand). 
 
Non-cancellable operating lease rentals are payable as follows: 
 
                             31 December 2014  31 December 2013  
                             E'000             E'000             
 Less than one year          19                19                
 Between two and five years  29                50                
 Total                       48                69                
 
 
30.    Contingent liabilities 
 
Companies of the Group are involved in pending litigations. Such litigations principally relate to day-to-day operations as
a developer of second-home residences and largely derive from certain clients and suppliers. Based on the Group's legal
advisers, the Investment Manager believes that there is sufficient defence against any claim and they do not expect that
the Group will suffer any material loss. All provisions in relation to this matter which are considered necessary have been
recorded in these consolidated financial statements. 
 
If investment properties, trading properties and property, plant and equipment were sold at their fair market value, this
would have given rise to a payable performance fee to the Investment Manager of approximately E63 million (2013: E48
million), subject always to the escrow and clawback provisions mentioned in note 25.2. 
 
In addition to the tax liabilities that have already been provided for in the consolidated financial statements based on
existing evidence, there is a possibility that additional tax liabilities may arise after the examination of the tax and
other matters of the companies of the Group in the relevant tax jurisdictions. 
 
The Group, under its normal course of business, guaranteed the development of properties in line with agreed specifications
and time limits in favor of other parties. 
 
31.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 
 
On 2 June 2015, the Board of Directors has decided (a) to proceed with a capital increase of up to E75 million through the
placing of new shares through an accelerated book building procedure, (b) amendments to the Investment Management agreement
between the Company and Investment Manager (including changes to the management fees and performance fees payable by the
Company to the Investment Manager) and (c) the adoption of a management stock incentive plan in respect of which certain
Directors and Investment Manager would be entitled to participate.  The implementation of the above would be conditional
upon approval by shareholders. 
 
There were no other material events after the reporting period, which have a bearing on the understanding of the
consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2014.
