(a) €26.1 million in the non-current portion (in 2014 €25 million in the current portion and €26.3 million in the non-current portion) relate to bonds issued by leading counterparties, listed on active and open markets which the company intends, and is able, to hold until their natural repayment date as an investment for a part of its available cash, in order to ensure a constant attractive flow of financial income. This designation was decided in accordance with IAS 39, paragraph 9.
Such financial instruments are free of whatsoever restriction and, therefore, can be monetized whenever the company should so decide.
Their classification as non-current in the financial position has been adopted only in view of the fact that their natural maturity date is 12 months beyond the closing date of the financial statements.
There are no trading restrictions and their degree of liquidity or the degree to which they can be converted into cash is considered high.
