Forecasts for the profit development are marked by a high level of uncertainty due to the continued uncertainties regarding economic developments. If the anticipated economic recovery sets in during 2010, we expect to see a stable trend in the growth of operating profit. Provided that there are no negative surprises on the capital markets or storms comparable to 2009, we consider an increase in the Group profit before taxes by 40% to 50% to be possible for the year 2010.
