Management actively monitors these exposures. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, Syngenta enters into derivative financial instruments. Syngenta’s objective is to reduce fluctuations in cash flows and earnings associated with changes in interest rates, foreign currency rates and commodity prices. Syngenta does not enter into any financial transactions unrelated to the operating business.
