. Credit risk<br />

Credit risk arises mainly on cash <strong>and</strong> cash equivalents. Receivables <strong>and</strong> advances include small loans advanced under microfinance schemes that<br />

sometimes carry a high risk of default, which amounted to €0.6 million (2011: €0.6 million) net of provisions. Other receivables <strong>and</strong> advances are<br />

spread across all the countries in which <strong>Plan</strong> operates <strong>and</strong> this minimises the exposure to credit risk. Any large receivables due from individual<br />

organisations generally comprise grants receivable from public bodies. The aggregate maximum credit risk at 30 June 2012 was €321 million<br />

(2011: €291 million). The table below shows the combined cash balances held by PI Inc, its subsidiaries <strong>and</strong> the NOs with the five largest bank<br />

counterparties at the balance sheet date.<br />
