     Financial liabilities
    Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or ‘other financial liabilities’.
    Financial liabilities at FVTPL
    Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL where the financial liability is held for trading, using the criteria set out above for financial assets.
    Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognized in the statement of income or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in the statement of income or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 24.
    Other financial liabilities
    Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
