The calculation using the BVI method, which serves comparability, does not take into account individual factors of the Fund or the investor, such as tax aspects of the investment (e.g. capital gains tax, tax-exempt portion of the dividend). The one-off front-end load of up to 5% and individual costs, like fees, commission and other remuneration, are not included in the calculation and would have a negative effect on performance if they were included. Historic value developments and financial market scenarios are not reliable indicators for current or future results. 2 This brief overview only shows the investment success calculated according to the standard BVI method. You will find a detailed presentation of both the investment success’s calculated according to the standard BVI method and the investment success’s calculated according to the recently introduced BVI method for open- ended real estate funds in the process of liquidation under the ‚Fund’s Yield’ heading on pages 25 to 28 of this Report.
