AB InBev Financial Results

B) DERIVATIVES AB InBev's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest risk, commodity risk and equity risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The company analyses each of these risks individually as well as on a combined basis and defines strategies to manage the economic impact on the company's performance in line with its financial risk management policy. AB InBev primarily uses the following derivative instruments: foreign exchange forwards, currency futures, interest rate swaps, cross currency interest rate swaps ("CCIRS"), commodity swaps, commodity futures and equity swaps.
