36.2 Revaluation reserve in accordance with IAS 39

This reserve is reversed to income either when the assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, or if the fair value of the assets falls permanently below their cost.

Further details can be found in Note 31. The revaluation reserve relates almost entirely to gains or losses on the fair value remeasurement of financial instruments of the Deutsche Postbank Group.

The change in the hedging reserve is mainly the result of the increase in unrealised losses and of hedging future operating foreign currency transactions. In the financial year, unrealised losses of €38 million were taken from the hedging reserve and recognised in operating profit; €2 million were transferred from the hedging reserve to net finance cost/financial income.
36.4 Currency translation reserve
The change is due to the decrease in exchange rates for major foreign currencies.
