The volatile background of the economic and financial crisis has been a challenge for business people in all sectors. Insurers have succeeded in charting a relatively stable course through the crisis. Our company, too, did well in the previous year. The most important decision we made in 2009 was taken in November. We will be changing our brand strategy. In future, life insurance and property-casualty insurance will be renamed ERGO, and direct insurance will also carry the ERGO name. This wide range of services is complemented by our specialist insurers for health, legal expenses and travel insurance. Each of these is brought together under a single brand, giving them a sharper profile. The decision to abandon the German brands of Hamburg-Mannheimer, Victoria and KarstadtQuelle Insurance in favour of the ERGO brand was not taken lightly. However, we are convinced that this new brand presence is the right answer to the current challenges facing our Group, as well as creating more trans parency for our customers pertaining to the entire range of distribution channels. Rather than restricting themselves to a single distribution channel when it comes to choosing insurance cover, people now increasingly tend to select their route to their insurer on the basis of their current needs and their personal preferences in the specific situation at hand. The focus on the ERGO brand and the clear positioning of the specialist brands mean we can retain more customers in the Group when they are changing between various distribution channels. A further advantage is that our advertising and marketing will achieve a higher return in terms of familiarity and positive sentiment. Consequently, we will soon be making more out of the diversity of our distribution channels. Although we took this decision against the background of such long-term con- siderations, the actual timing was determined by the bankruptcy of Arcandor with its Karstadt and Quelle brands. This threatened to have an adverse impact on the business of KarstadtQuelle Insurance, which had its roots in the Arcan- dor group. ERGO has been the majority shareholder of the direct insurer since 2002, and since 2008 we have been sole owners. By renaming KarstadtQuelle as ERGO Direct Insurance, we provided an immediate resolution, and because we have thoroughly revised our entire brand strategy rather than just improving one aspect of it, we have created a convincing overall concept for the future. This also means we have harmonised our brand strategy in Germany with the strategy we use in international markets. ERGO Insurance Group 3 In 2009, we successfully completed an important chapter in Group develop- ment. Since October, ERGO Versicherungsgruppe AG has been the legal employer of most of our back-office staff in Germany. This means that our employment contracts now also reflect our unified structures and processes, which is an important step for the consolidation of our identity and company culture. Both these factors are becoming inceasingly important in the compe- tition for well-qualified, motivated employees. In order to be successful here, we attach great value to the compatibility of professional and family life – a commitment honoured once more by the Hertie charitable foundation with its “berufundfamilie” (profession and family) certificate. In 2009, we successfully continued to pursue our long-term goals in relation to our competitive position. For example, we have worked further on reducing costs. We were able to conclude negotiations successfully with co-determination committees. The majority of the reduction of a total of 1,800 posts announced has been achieved in line with socially acceptable terms. We have also successfully concluded two major integration projects, namely the incorporation of ERV, which deals with ERGO’s travel insurance and which we had acquired from Munich Re at the beginning of 2009, as well as the Bank Austria Creditanstalt Versicherungen. Once again, our extensive experience arising from the internal integration process and the incorporation of new companies and areas of business showed its worth. The integration of the Austrian insurer is just one of many examples of our numerous international operations, which grew by 25.4 percent to 5.1 billion euros, continuing the positive trend. Here, we are continuing with the important distribution channel via banks, which we further strengthened in the past year. Regarding the DnB Nord bank, we have acquired an exclusive partner for the sale of life insurance in the Baltic States. In Greece, the Piraeus Bank will sell property insurance for us on an exclusive basis. Nevertheless, there were fewer opportunities than expected to continue the expansion of our business in new markets, where the economic and financial crisis significantly reduced our room for manoeuvre. Above all, there were very few attractive opportunities for acquisitions, because both potential vendors and potential joint venture partners were reluctant to put themselves forward. For instance, we had to accept a setback, because our cooperation partner in life insurance, the Indian Hero Group, withdrew in order to focus on its core business. 4 ERGO Insurance Group At the same time, the trend on the capital markets led us to focus even more strongly on long-term security in the context of our risk-aware investment policy. Our benefit promises to our customers are of a long-term nature and constitute the core of our insurance business. For this reason, sustainability is more important to us than short-term yield. We are transparent to our cus- tomers, too, regarding this sustainable policy. As an example, we were the first on the German market to publish the valuation reserves of our two life insurers on the Internet on a monthly basis. My overall verdict on 2009 is a positive one. Apart from the activities I have described, we are able to present a solid profit, even considering the crisis. Total premium income increased by 7.6 percent to 19 billion euros. Our acqui- sitions had a positive effect, but declining exchange rates in important inter - national markets such as Poland or Turkey were negative.

It includes trip cancellation losses, loss of baggage, medical treatment of patients, and loss of travel documents, evacuation, or deportation during an emergency, and other unavoidable conditions. In the coming years, the Italy travel insurance market is projected to grow at a significant rate owing to its low penetration rate and increase in the tourism industry. In addition, Italy is a unitary parliamentary republic in Europe, therefore demand for travel & tourism largely takes place in the country. The growth of the Italy travel insurance market is largely attributed to the growth in trends for availing travel insurance as a prerequisite for obtaining Visa in the country. In addition, depending on coverages, travel insurance providers in the country offer different plans by covering costs and losses associated with traveling.
