Details of the asset valuation procedure Generally speaking, where a security was traded on several markets, the market's most recently available tradable price with the highest level of liquidity was applied. The market value determined and notified by the issuer of the respective asset or a counterparty or other third party was used for assets for which no tradable price could be determined insofar as this value could be validated with a second reliable and current price source. The regulations laid down were documented. Market values were determined for assets for which no tradable price could be determined and for which at least two reliable and current price sources could not be determined, such values were based on careful estimates and appropriate valuation models, while taking account of the current market factors. The market value refers to the amount at which the relevant asset could be exchanged in a transaction involving expert and independent business partners who are willing to enter into an agreement. The evaluation processes used were documented in detail internally, and their suitability is examined at regular intervals. Units in domestic investment funds, ec-investment fund units and foreign investment fund units will be valued at their most recently determined redemption price, or for ETFs at their current market price. Cash held at banks will be valued at face value and liabilities at their repayment amount. Term deposits will be valued at face value and other assets will be valued at their market value or par value.
