    Euromoney Magazine http://www.euromoney.com/Print.aspx?ArticleID=2406144 The failed state of Iceland Elliot Wilson Friday, March 05, 2010 The full horror of the country’s bank-led collapse is still emerging. A new generation of regulators is trying to sort out the mess as prosecutors attempt to bring the perpetrators to justice but, as Elliot Wilson discovers in Reykjavik, there’s a long road ahead to recovery. IN A WORLD where international reputations seem to topple like dominoes every few months – Greece being the latest casualty – it’s worth stepping back in time to the mother of all financial disasters. When Iceland’s banking sector disintegrated in autumn 2008 it spelled the end for the nation’s big three lenders – Kaupthing, Glitnir and Landsbanki – creating the greatest banking collapse relative to economic size in history. But it did much more. It shredded a tiny nation’s hard-won economic reputation in a heartbeat. It bankrupted hundreds of Icelandic firms, many of which had grown fat and rich with cheap loans from local banks. Worst of all it impoverished tens of thousands of poorly advised (and often greedy) consumers, who are now deeply in debt and bitter towards everyone – bankers, politicians, regulators and the entire global financial system that allowed Iceland to fly so high before burning up and falling to Earth. While the eyes of the world are elsewhere, it’s interesting to see how a new generation of politicians and regulators in Reykjavik, backed by a coterie of teak-tough international advisers, are seeking to scrape the country’s tattered economy off the floor.

    Investment portfolio highlights – part of investment snapshot section kjsdvlksdfakkjjgfsljsdfgljk FL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2007 Annual Report 2007 0 1 Highlights of the year Market turmoil The value of listed holdings decreased significantly during the second half of the year when very difficult market conditions prevailed, eliminating value increases that had accumulated during the first half of the year, and resulting in net loss after tax of ISK 67 billion in 2007. Acquisition of TM A large majority of shares in Tryggingamidstodin (TM), an Icelandic insurance company, were acquired in 2007. The acquisition was largely funded with an increase in equity. TM was consolidated into the Group's accounts as of 1 October 2007. Private equity activity The company continued to build up its private equity operations. Highlights of the year include acquisition of shares in Landic Property and other property companies towards the end of the year, as well as the approach to Inspired Gaming Group, subsequently withdrawn. Portfolio restructuring The company has undertaken a thoughtful restructuring process within its investment portfolio. Non-core assets have been sold with exposure to aviation significantly reduced. In total the market exposure of the company was reduced by more than ISK 100 billion. Increased assets Total assets increased to ISK 422 billion at the end of 2007 from ISK 263 billion at the end of 2006, representing a 60.7% increase. Strong financial position Total shareholders' equity was ISK 155.8 billion at the end of 2007, an increase of ISK 13.2 billion since the end of 2006.
