Of the impairments totalling EUR 75 (71) million, an amount of EUR 12 (10) million was attributable to equities, EUR 27 (16) million to real estate funds and EUR 14 (7) to private equity capital. The impairment on investment property amounted to EUR 12 (9) million. On the other hand, there was appreciation of EUR 11 (19) million on investments that had been written down in previous periods. Appreciation on fixed-income securities amounted to EUR 5 (11) million. Appreciation of EUR 6 (6) million was recorded on investment property.

Net income from the disposal of securities amounted to EUR 605 (372) million. This is principally attributable to the disposal of portfolio securities, mostly of short duration, during the optimisation of yields and durations (more details on this are contained in the Management Report). In addition, Talanx AG sold part of its stake in Swiss Life Holding AG on the market.

In addition, as at the balance sheet date, the portfolio did not contain any other overdue, unadjusted securities, because overdue securities are written down immediately.
