This excerpt taken from the ELN 6-K filed Mar 30, 2009. Interest
Rate Risk on Investments
Our liquid funds are invested primarily in U.S. dollars
except for the working capital balances of subsidiaries
operating outside of the United States. Interest rate changes
affect the returns on our investment funds. Our exposure to
interest rate risk on liquid funds is actively monitored and
managed with an average duration of less than three months. By
calculating an overall exposure to interest rate risk rather
than a series of individual instrument cash flow exposures, we
can more readily monitor and hedge these risks. Duration
analysis recognises the time value of money and in particular,
prevailing interest rates by discounting future cash flows.
The interest rate risk profile of our investments at
31 December 2008 was as follows (in millions):
Variable interest rates on cash and liquid resources are
generally based on the appropriate Euro Interbank Offered Rate,
LIBOR or bank rates dependent on principal amounts on deposit.
For additional information on our investments, refer to
Notes 15 and 25 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

A 10% increase in market rates of interest would have increased
the net loss by $0.6 million in 2007
(2006:$1.3 million). A 10% decrease in market rates of
interest would have had the equal but opposite effect on the net
loss in 2007 and 2006.

The amounts shown in the table above take into account the
effect of forward contracts entered into to manage these
currency exposures.
We are exposed to equity price risks, primarily on our
available-for-sale investments, which include quoted investments
carried at a fair value of $9.9 million (2004: cost of
$28.1 million). These investments are primarily in emerging
pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. An adverse change in
equity prices could result in a material impact in the fair
value of our available-for-sale quoted investments.
