    2.21 Derivatives
     
    Derivative financial instruments are recognised in the statement of financial position as assets or liabilities and initially and subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss. They are presented as current assets or liabilities if they are expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
     
    The market-to-market fair value of the Group's outstanding derivative instruments is based on independently provided market rates and determined using standard valuation techniques, including the impact of counterparty credit risk and are within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income within Commodity risk management contracts.
