| (b) | Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates, and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas and matters, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.
| c) | Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks
| (a) | Market risk
| i) | Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities.
| (ii) | Management has set up a policy to require group companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. Exchange rate risk arising from the difference between various functional currencies and the reporting currency in the consolidated financial statements is centrally managed by the Group’s finance department.
| (iii) | The Group’s businesses involve some non-functional currency operations (the Company’s and certain subsidiaries’ functional currency: USD; other certain subsidiaries’ functional currency: NTD, RMB and HKD).

| ii) | Cash flow interest rate risk
| (i) | The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from short-term loans and long-term loans with variable rates, which expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Group’s loans at variable rate were mainly denominated in NTD and USD.
| (ii) | The Group’s loans are measured at amortized cost. The loans are periodically contractually repriced and to that extent are also exposed to the risk of future changes in market interest rates.
| (iii) | If the borrowing interest rate had increased/decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, profit would have increased/decreased as follow:
|  | Year ended December 31, 2024 |  |  | Year ended December 31, 2023 |
Profit increased/decreased |  | $ | 100,728 |  |  | $ | 79,451 |
The main factor is that changes in interest expense result in floating-rate loans.
| (b) | Credit risk
| (i) | Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations.
The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms, and the contract cash flows of debt instruments stated at amortized cost.
| (ii) | The Group manages their credit risk, taking into consideration the entire group’s concern. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered.
Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilization of credit limits is regularly monitored.
| (iii) | In line with credit risk management procedure, when the contract payments of the counterparty were past due over 360 days and after repeatedly asking for payment over 360 days, the default has occurred.
| (iv) | The Group adopts the following assumptions under IFRS 9 to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition:
If the contract payments were past due over 30 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
| (v) | The Group classifies customer’s accounts receivable in accordance with credit risk on trade and customer type. The Group applies the modified approach using a provision matrix based on the loss rate methodology to estimate expected credit loss under the provision matrix basis.
| (vi) | The Group wrote-off the financial assets, which cannot be reasonably expected to be recovered, after initiating recourse procedures. However, the Group will continue executing the recourse procedures to secure their rights.
| (vii) | The Group used the forecast ability to adjust historical and timely information to assess the default possibility of accounts receivable. The loss rate methodology is as follows:
Schedule of loss rate methodology
|  | Not past due |  |  | Up to 30 days past due |  |  |  | 31 to 90 days past due |  |  |  | 91 to 180 days past due |  |  |  | Over 180 days past due |  |  | Total |
