1.8 Company's objectives and policies related to financial risk management

All employees of the Company, including its Management and Supervisory Board, are involved in the implementation of internal control and risk management systems.

The Company manages risks, including financial risks, particularly through two mutually independent control functions: monitoring of compliance with relevant regulations and internal audit function.

These control functions process and monitor the work of all organizational units, Company activities and support services.

1.9 Company's exposure to price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk

The Company invests free funds in open-end money market and bond investment funds, as well as bank deposits. Its investments are carried at fair value. The Company mitigates the price risk by diversifying its portfolio of open-end investment funds it by investing in different types of funds managed by different fund management companies, and by investing in low-risk funds.

The Company has no loans received, rather its cash and financial assets exceed substantially the liabilities of the Company, and consequently, the Company's liquidity position is satisfactory.

The Company is exposed to inflationary risks, considering that a significant part of its expenses is indexed. The Company also has a limited ability to mitigate the influence of inflation on its expenses by increasing prices, considering that the Company's Price list has to be approved by the Regulator.

1.10 Statement of transactions and transfers between the Company and its subsidiaries and shareholders

The Company confirms that in the first quarter of 2024 there were no transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and shareholders in excess of EUR 100,000.

1.11 Statement of events which might have an adverse effect on Company operations

The ongoing war in Ukraine and sanctions against the Russian Federation are affecting economies in Europe and the world. The Company has no exposure in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. However, the effect on the general economic situation may require a revision of certain assumptions and estimates, which may lead to significant adjustments in the carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities over the next financial year. At this stage, management cannot reliably assess the impact as new developments take place day by day.

The Company, like all other business entities in Croatia, is prone to risks related to the increase of prices of goods and services, and as such is aware of the increased risks caused by inflation which continues in the future period.

It is expected that interest rates will stabilize in 2024, and even a reduction of the interest rates might affect the Company's financial results.

Apart from the above, no other business events or transactions have occurred after the balance sheet date that would have a material impact on the financial statements on or for the period then ended or are of such importance to the Company's operations that it would require disclosure in the management report.
