The Group has also undertaken a review of its cash investment strategy. The purpose of the review was to consider how to increase the rate of return earned on its cash deposits without any major shift in the risk profile of the investments. Historically the Group has invested its cash deposits on short term Money Market deposits and in various investment grade cash funds. Following the review, the Board has decided to invest a proportion of the available funds in higher rate of return investments such as corporate debt funds and investments in specific businesses operating within the wider oil and gas value chain. By their nature, these will have a higher risk profile than the existing investment grade deposits currently being used. However, the Group will only invest in low risk, non-speculative investments.
