must be taken into account.
Column SP0010 also specifically covers the business that is not entitled to a bonus.
Any breakdown required in accordance with comment 13 must be taken into account.
- The amounts attributable to the contracts entitled to a bonus under the new or existing portfolio must be
stated in columns SP0020 and SP0030. All contracts in the existing portfolio are deemed to be entitled to a
bonus. In the new portfolio, the amounts attributable to portfolio groups 132 and 140 and to any contracts
in other contract groups that are not entitled to a bonus are not to be taken into account. Any breakdown
required in accordance with comment 13 must be taken into account.
- The amounts attributable to the collective parts of the provision for bonuses and rebates within the
meaning of section 140 (4) of the German Insurance Supervision Act (Versicherungsaufsichtsgesetz – VAG)
must be stated in this column. Any breakdown required in accordance with comment 13 must be taken into
account.
- Income and expenses attributable to investments for the account and at the risk of life insurance
policyholders (Form F.100.01, line ZE0080, column SP0040) are not included in net investment income.

the expense and any amounts subsequently reversed must be allocated to the sources of gains and losses
in the profit distribution (forms F.213.01 to F.219.01) in accordance with the increased calculation
assumptions.
If the expense for the direct credit was financed fully or partly by a withdrawal from the provision for
bonuses and rebates recognised in profit or loss, the resulting other technical income must not be included
in line ZE0160 of this form. Similarly, any other technical income arising from a withdrawal from the
provision for bonuses and rebates on the basis of section 140 (1) sentence 2 of the Insurance Supervision
Act must not be included in line ZE0160. These transactions must be explained in an annex (as a
supplementary qualitative part of the form).
- Parts of the direct credit that were financed by a withdrawal from the provision for bonuses and rebates
recognised in profit or loss must not be recognised here.
- Positive amounts may only be reported here if the supervisory authority has approved the reduction in the
minimum allocation in advance.
- Underwriting provision recognised as a liability due to insufficient collateral in the actuarial interest rate for
the contracts with entitlement to a bonus in accordance with section 3 (7) sentence 1 of the Minimum
Allocation Regulation. The statement of the reserve is mandatory for all undertakings; in particular, it must
be made independently of any reserves financed externally that may have been formed.
- The total equity that has been allocated externally for interest rate hedging in accordance with section 3 (7)
of the Minimum Allocation Regulation since the introduction of the regulation must be reported in line
ZE0310, and the equity still available at the end of the financial year for future increases in the portion of
reserves financed externally must be reported in line ZE0320.

account numbers 1, 2 and 3 (minimum allocation group 499);
b. for each sub-portfolio for which, on the basis of a declaration of commitment, e.g. as a result of a
portfolio transfer pursuant to section 13 of the Insurance Supervision Act or a conversion pursuant
to section 14 of the Insurance Supervision Act, a minimum allocation to the provision for bonuses
and rebates must also be maintained in accordance with the provisions of the Minimum Allocation
Regulation. The pro rata amounts determined in accordance with the provisions of the declaration
of commitment must be stated for each sub-portfolio.
The minimum allocation groups according to letter b must be explained using Form F.030.03; reference
must be made in this context to any associated sub-collective groups in accordance with Form F.113.01.
