Out of the Co-operative Societies Liquidation Account such sums may be transferred to the Central Co-operative Fund, or applied generally for the furtherance of co-operative principles in such manner, as the Minister may determine from time to time. The Common Shares and the Permanent Shares are presented as equity on the statement of financial position. The redemption rights of the Ordinary Members and Institutional Members holding the Common Shares and the requirements of FRS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation are described in Note 2(s) of significant accounting policies. 21. Reserves for future distribution The Group has designated an amount of $500,142,000 (2017: $513,721,000) as reserves for future distribution. This amount relates to the ElderShield and IncomeShield business. The reserves are set aside because the underlying risk for IncomeShield and ElderShield is uncertain and of a long term nature, it is prudent to earmark this amount as being available for distribution only when the trend of the experience can be clearly established. 22.
