(1) As most borrowings incorporate floating rates that approximate market rates and the contractual repricing occurs mostly every 1 month, the fair value of the borrowings approximates their carrying amount and it is not disclosed separately. The weighted average interest rates - which incorporate instruments denominated mainly in U.S. dollars and Argentine pesos and which do not include the effect of derivative financial instruments nor the devaluation of these local currencies - at year-end were as follows:
| As of December 31,
| 2018 |  | 2017
Bank borrowings | 3.65 | % |  | 4.76 | %
The nominal average interest rates shown above were calculated using the rates set for each instrument in its corresponding currency and weighted using the dollar-equivalent outstanding principal amount of said instruments at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
