NOTES TO THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)1.8.3. Share-based payments to acquire nancial assetsEquity instruments of the Company issued as consideration for the acquisition of nancial assets are treated as equity-settled share-based payment transactions. Equity-settled share-based payment transactions are accounted for by measuring the fair value of goods and services (including nancial assets) received with a corresponding increase in equity, unless that fair value cannot be estimated reliably in which case the Company measures their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly, by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.1.9. TaxationIncome tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.1.9.1. Current taxationThe tax currently payable is based on taxable pro t for the year.

The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.1.9.2. Deferred taxationDeferred taxation is provided using the balance sheet method based on temporary di erences.

Furthermore, a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable pro t will be available against which the deductible temporary di erence can be utilised.Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are o set when the Group has a legally enforceable right to o set the current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or di erent taxable entities which intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which signi cant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are not discounted.1.9.3.
