MISSION THE WORLD IS GR OWING TOGETHER. Goods flows and their accompanying data are interlinking our world to an increasing extent. Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) is actively and far-sightedly shaping this process at one of the interfaces of the world economy. With its efficient container ter- minals, high-performance transport systems and comprehensive logistics services, HHLA constitutes a complete network between the overseas port and the European hinterland. Logistics chains are therefore created that conserve the climate and promote development in the world economy.

FOREWORD HHLA Group attained its ambitious goals in 2008, setting new records for rev- enue and result. This is all the more remarkable since the economic environment became increasingly overcast in the course of the year. In the fourth quarter of 2008 the repercussions of the financial crisis on the real economy also hit global transport and logistics chains with full force. That became apparent in the distinctly downward trend in volumes at the end of the year. The never- theless fine result for the year as a whole was primarily achieved through the optimization of workflows and processes, increasing the depth and volume of services we provide, as well by once again boosting efficiency and productivity. Our investments in modernization in recent years substantially contributed to this favourable trend. Crucial for these successes were once again the continued motivation and dedication of our staff. Their willingness to perform and their flexibility are a decisive prerequisite if we are to discharge the ever more demanding tasks in transport and logistics chains. With increasing utilization of IT and automa- tion, experience and the ability to judge are factors central to success. One indicator of the staff’s strong identification with the company was the high take-up rate of 55 percent for the scheme allowing them to purchase HHLA shares at a concessionary price in an already difficult stock exchange market at the end of 2008. 6 HHLA ANNUAL REPORT 2008 FOREWORD Whereas in recent years foresight in catering for high growth rates represented the greatest challenge for the development of the company, today the situation is considerably more complex: the world economy and our direct market en- vironment are in a serious recession, the extent of which nobody is currently able to estimate. At the same time, much suggests that the long-term trend towards globalization will remain uninterrupted, with constantly stronger intermeshing of production and consumption in the world economy, as well as the related growth in world goods flows. For us, this means that we must adjust to distinct falls in demand in the short term, without however losing sight of the prospects for growth in the medium and long term. Today HHLA is well prepared in several respects to meet this double challenge. For a start, our solid balance sheet structure with its high equity ratio forms a fine foundation.

With respect to the term “regulated stock exchange” as widely used throughout the guidelines of our Indices, Solactive has decided to apply following definition: A Regulated Stock Exchange must – to be approved by Solactive for the purpose calculation of its indices - fulfil a set of criteria to enable foreign investors to trade listed shares without undue restrictions. Solactive will regularly review and update a list of eligible Regulated Stock Exchanges which at least 1) are Regulated Markets comparable to the definition in Art. 4(1) 21 of Directive 2014/65/EU, except Title III thereof; and 2) provide for an investor registration procedure, if any, not unduly restricting foreign investors. Other factors taken into account are the limits on foreign ownership, if any, imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Regulated Stock Exchange is located and other factors related to market accessibility and investability. Using above definition, Solactive has evaluated the global stock exchanges and decided to include the following in its List of Approved Regulated Stock Exchanges. This List will henceforth be used for calculating all of Solactive’s equity indices and will be reviewed and updated, if necessary, at least annually.

  • Beiersdorf Timeline
    Beiersdorf Timeline March 28, 1882 The date of the patent document for the manufacture of medical plasters submitted by pharmacist Paul C. Beiersdorf is taken as the date of the company’s formation. On the basis of this patent, Paul C. Beiersdorf produces gutta-percha plasters in his laboratory. 1890 Pharmacist and businessman Dr. Oscar Troplowitz purchases the Hamburg-based company from its founder, Paul C. Beiersdorf. 1893 The first international cooperation agreement is signed with US trading company Lehn & Fink for the USA, providing the first contact with the US market. 1900 Patent application for Eucerit (lit. “beautiful wax”), an emulsifying agent. Made from lanolin, found in sheep’s wool, Eucerit is the basis for Eucerin and, later on, for NIVEA Creme. 1909 Lip care now has a name: Labello, the first lip care product in a sliding tube. Its name is derived from the Latin words labium (lip) and bellum (beautiful). 1911 Working closely together with chemist Dr. Isaac Lifschütz and dermatologist Prof. Paul G. Unna, Dr. Oscar Troplowitz develops the first ever stable skin cream based on a water-in-oil emulsion, using the emulsifying agent Eucerit. Troplowitz names the product NIVEA, derived from the Latin word “nix, nivis,” meaning “snow.” 1914 The company now does business with 34 countries, with 42% of sales being generated abroad. 1918/1922 Dr. Oscar Troplowitz and his co-shareholder Dr. Otto Hanns Mankiewicz pass away in 1918, necessitating several changes in Beiersdorf’s legal form. The stock corporation P. Beiersdorf & Co. AG is founded on June 1, 1922. 1922 Hansaplast is launched on the market and revolutionizes wound care: it is the first plaster with a gauze pad, meaning it can also be used for the care of open wounds.

  • Financial Globalization in the 19Th Century: Germany As a financial Center
    Financial globalization in the 19th century: Germany as a financial center Julia Bersch1 and Graciela L. Kaminsky2 This version: September 2008 We analyze the capital exports of Germany between 1883 and 1914 to study its importance as a financial center. Therefore, we collected data on foreign securities issued on German stock exchanges from primary sources. We find that Germany specialized in lending to European countries, mostly to Austria-Hungary, Russia and Italy, and was competing with France in lending to these countries. Indeed we show that shocks to the French interest rates affected German foreign investment. Great Britain, the largest international financial center, was not competing in lending to European countries but specialized in lending to previous colonies and to North and Latin America. As Germany’s lending to the Americas accounted only for a low share of its foreign investment and was negligible compared to Great Britain’s, shocks to the interest rates in London did not affect overall foreign issuances in Germany. JEL: F21; N20; N23 Keywords: Capital flows, international issuances, financial centers, Germany 1Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich and Munich Graduate School of Economics, e-mail: [email protected]. 2George Washington University 1 Introduction Financial globalization is not a new phenomenon of the late 20th century. An important era of financial globalization and integration took already place in the 19th century. In the 19th century, Europe was the world’s banker, lending capital to countries around the world (Feis, 1930). The main capital exporter was Great Britain, followed by France and Germany, and their capital cities were the main financial centers intermediating credit through their stock exchanges and bankers.
