Financial Instrument Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks primarily associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We selectively manage these exposures through the use of derivative instruments, including forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange options. The objective of our risk management strategy is to minimize the volatility from fluctuations in foreign currency. We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. The counterparties to our forward contracts and options are global commercial and investment banks.
We use a sensitivity analysis model to measure the impact of potential adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. With respect to foreign exchange sensitivity, after consideration of the impact from our forward foreign exchange contracts and options, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the value of all our foreign currency positions relative to the U.S. dollar as of December 31, 2024 would result in a $85 million, pre-tax loss for our net monetary assets denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.
There are certain limitations inherent in the sensitivity analysis presented, primarily due to the assumption that exchange rates change instantaneously in an equally adverse fashion. In addition, the analysis is unable to reflect the complex market reactions that normally would arise from the market shifts modeled. While this is our best estimate of the impact of the various scenarios, this estimate should not be viewed a forecast.
