The following table classifies derivatives elected for hedge accounting during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 as either cash flow hedges or net investment hedges. Changes in the fair value of the effective portion of the hedges are recorded in either other comprehensive income or net income, depending on the hedge classification, whereas changes in the fair value of the ineffective portion of the hedge are recorded in net income:
|  | 2021 |  | 2020
AS AT AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED (US$ MILLIONS) |  | Notional |  | Effective Portion |  | Ineffective Portion |  | Notional |  | Effective Portion |  | Ineffective Portion
Cash flow hedges |  | $ | 272 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 275 |  |  | $ | 5 |  |  | $ | — |
Our company settles the difference between the contracted fixed and floating rates of its interest rate swaps on a net basis. All interest rate swap contracts exchanging floating rate interest amounts for fixed rate interest amounts are designated as cash flow hedges in order to reduce our company’s cash flow exposure resulting from variable interest rates on borrowings. The interest rate swaps and the interest payments on the borrowings occur simultaneously and the amount accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss over the period that the floating rate interest payments on borrowings affect profit or loss.
