Loan to related parties   29,240    79,316 
Total   138,373    171,632 

 

The credit risk regarding cash is considered to be negligible because the counterparty is a reputable bank with an investment grade external credit rating.

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

 

Liquidity risk management serves to maintain a sufficient amount of cash and to ensure that the Company has financing sources such as private and public investments for a sufficient amount.

 

Over the past period, the Company has financed its business development commitments, its working capital requirements and acquisitions through private placement. As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not have sufficient cash to pay its accounts payable and accrued liabilities which have contractual maturities within twelve months.

The Company functional currency is the United States dollars and major purchases are transacted in United States dollars.
