Derivative Financial Instruments

Note 11. Derivative Financial Instruments

We enter into forward currency contracts to manage foreign exchange risk on intercompany loans that are not deemed permanently invested. These forward contracts are not designated as hedges, and their change in fair value is recorded in our consolidated statements of income in the interest expense line item during each reporting period. These forward contracts provide an economic hedge, as they largely offset foreign currency exposures on intercompany loans.

The counterparties to our derivative financial instruments are major financial institutions. We evaluate the bond ratings of the financial institutions and believe that credit risk is at an acceptable level.

 

The following tables summarize the fair value of our derivative instruments and the effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income during the quarter.
