The change in fair value of the loans and receivables designated at fair value 
through profit or loss attributable to changes in credit risk amounts to a loss 
to the group of EUR19,993,442 (31 December 2008: EUR2,057,477).  The estimate is 
based on the change in the average bid of loans held in Gale Force 4 which 
suffered credit rating changes by Moody's during the year, adjusted by the 
change in the S&P LCD All Loans Index and the change in the average bid of the 
CLO investments held which suffered credit rating changes by Moody's during the 
year, adjusted for the average bid for similarly rated assets. There were 93 
loans downgraded by S&P, 83 loans downgraded by Moody's, 62 loans upgraded by 
S&P and 30 loans upgraded by Moody's. The average bid of the S&P LCD All Loans 
Index increased by 41.48% during the year. 
 
The change in fair value of the financial liabilities at fair value through 
profit or loss, attributable to changes in credit risk amounts to a loss to the
