Dear shareholders,
UNIQA performed satisfactorily in the first nine months of 2017, increasing earnings before taxes by 21.8 per cent to €181.4 million. We continued to achieve improvements in our key operating performance parameters.
Premiums written, including savings portions of unit-linked and index-linked life insurance, rose by 6.1 per cent to €4,043.9 million in the first three quarters of 2017, which is attributed to sustained economic growth in Central and Eastern Europe. The growth in this region (19.7 per cent) was driven primarily by property and casualty insurance and by unitlinked and index-linked life insurance. In Austria (up by 0.7 per cent), both the health insurance business and the property and casualty insurance business also performed well. By contrast, the volume of premiums in life insurance contracted in line with the market as a whole, as forecast.
Net investment income was adversely impacted not only by the losses due to a weakened US dollar but also once again by the low interest rates. In total, the figure declined by 6.2 per cent to €393.6 million. Our efforts to improve our operating key performance indicators on a sustainable basis have therefore become all the more important, and we made further progress in this regard in the first nine months of 2017. We managed to increase the technical result by 69.4 per cent to €97.9 million. Critical contributing factors were the reduction in the cost ratio to 24.5 per cent and in the combined ratio to 97.1 per cent.
Some of the benefit from the economic tailwind is currently being offset by the low interest rates and increased weather-related claims. Having already suffered higher levels of claims from weather events in the third quarter of 2017 in our core markets, we will also have to absorb additional expenses in the final account for the year as a whole caused by Cyclone Herwart in the fourth quarter of 2017. The current capital market environment also remains challenging – especially for life insurance. Nevertheless, UNIQA is still expecting a slight year-on-year improvement in earnings before taxes for the financial year 2017 and intends to implement a further modest increase in the dividend per share for 2017.
Sincerely,
Andreas Brandstetter CEO UNIQA Group
Vienna, November 2017
The uptrend in the global economy reached its highest point to date in 2017. The forecasts for global economic growth lie between 3.5 and 3.7 per cent for the current year. This represents a multi-year high as economic expansion in both the industrialised countries and emerging markets increasingly unfolds in sync. The US economy continues to enjoy robust growth. The only cloud on the horizon is uncertainty caused by possible tax reform and its economic impact. Even Japan is now sharing in the global economic growth. The sole inconsistent performer in terms of economic growth is the United Kingdom, which has fallen back to become one of the stragglers over the last year after being out in front.
Economic expansion also gained traction in Austria and in the eurozone as a whole. The economic recovery in the eurozone is broadly based in terms of countries and sectors, and thus is proving to be relatively durable. Over the whole of 2017, gross domestic product (GDP) is predicted to rise by 2.8 per cent in Austria and by 2.2 per cent in the eurozone. This positive trend is likely to be sustained over the next few quarters. Whereas the situation on the labour market has improved markedly, wage growth has remained modest to date and has varied between countries in the eurozone.
An increasing number of central banks are moving towards normalising monetary policy. In June 2017, the US central bank (Fed) lifted its key interest rates to 1.25 per cent and in October 2017 started to reduce the size of the central bank balance sheet. The Fed's balance sheet had become inflated to more than \$4.5 trillion since the start of the high-volume bond-buying programme (quantitative easing). The Bank of England recently sprang a surprise, announcing a cycle of interest rate hikes. The European Central Bank (ECB) is also proceeding with a gradual normalisation of monetary policy and, from January 2018, will continue its monthly assetbuying programme until September 2018 with a reduced volume of €30 billion. It is therefore conceivable that a cycle of raising interest rates could be initiated in around two years' time. Despite the excellent economic conditions, the wage and cost pressures in businesses remain manageable, as do inflation rates. Consequently, this process of normalisation in monetary policy will continue to be implemented gradually and slowly. The low interest rates will persist in the short term. Other fundamentals underlying the low interest rates – demographic change and low productivity growth – will also remain unchanged in the industrialised countries over the medium term.
The upturn in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) has been brisk. The region as a whole is projected to enjoy economic growth of 2.9 per cent in 2017. The substantial year-on-year rise (1.3 per cent) is attributable to the fact that a recovery is now also emerging in Russia. The CEE region was badly affected by the financial crisis in 2008–2009 but in the last few years has reestablished itself as a strong global growth region. The convergence of disposable per capita incomes will continue over the medium term.
Real GDP growth is forecast to reach 4.0 per cent this year in the countries of Central Europe (Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic). Strong domestic demand is driving the robust economic trend, and unemployment rates are falling to historic lows. In contrast to the established economies in Western Europe, households are benefiting from significant growth in wages and salaries in some cases; the first central banks are also starting to pursue a tighter monetary policy. In April 2017, the Czech National Bank unpegged the koruna from the euro and initiated a cycle of increasing interest rates. The National Bank of Romania is also preparing for a cycle of interest rate hikes in the near future. The Romanian economy is enjoying the highest level of economic growth in the CEE region at more than 5 per cent. Alongside Russia, an economic recovery is also emerging in Ukraine. The Central Bank of the Russian Federation has brought the recent high inflation under control, establishing an inflation target of 4 per cent. Average economic growth of 3 per cent in the countries of Southeastern Europe completes a positive economic picture overall for the current year.
The premiums written including savings portions from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance rose in the first three quarters of 2017 by 6.1 per cent to €4,043.9 million as a result of solid growth in all lines of business (1–9/2016: €3,812.3 million). While recurring premiums written rose by 3.8 per cent to €3,837.2 million (1–9/2016: €3,695.5 million), single premiums in life insurance increased by 76.9 per cent to €206.6 million driven by strong growth in Poland (1–9/2016: €116.8 million).
Premiums earned, including net savings portions of the premiums from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance – totalling €371.4 million (1–9/2016: €258.4 million) – increased in the first three quarters of 2017 by 7.1 per cent to €3,844.4 million (1–9/2016: €3,590.8 million). The volume of premiums earned (net, in accordance with IFRSs) rose by 4.2 per cent to €3,473.0 million (1–9/2016: €3,332.4 million).
Premiums written in property and casualty insurance – particularly in CEE – grew slightly in the first nine months of 2017 by 5.7 per cent to €2,048.4 million (1–9/2016: €1,937.6 million). The volume of premiums earned (net, in accordance with IFRSs) increased by 6.7 per cent to €1,883.7 million (1–9/2016: €1,765.0 million).
In health insurance, premiums written in the reporting period increased by 3.7 per cent to €783.5 million (1–9/2016: €755.2 million). Premiums earned (net, in accordance with IFRSs) grew by 3.8 per cent to €777.5 million (1–9/2016: €749.3 million).
In life insurance, the premiums written including savings portions from the unit-linked and index-linked life insurance rose overall in the first nine months of 2017 by 8.3 per cent to €1,211.9 million (1–9/2016: €1,119.4 million). The single premium business increased in the first three quarters of 2017 by 76.9 per cent to €206.6 million on account of the very strong growth in Poland (1–9/2016: €116.8 million). Recurring premiums rose by 0.3 per cent to €1,005.3 million (1–9/2016: €1,002.6 million). The Annual Premium Equivalent (APE) in life insurance increased as a result of this development by 1.1 per cent to €1,025.9 million (1–9/2016: €1,014.3 million). The APE calculation accounts for 10 per cent of single premiums, because the average term of single premiums in Europe is ten years. As a result, annual fluctuations are smoothed out in this calculation. The risk-premium portion accounted for in the premiums in unit-linked and index-linked life insurance in the first three quarters of 2017 was €36.4 million (1–9/2016: €26.8 million). The insured capital in life insurance totalled €75,799.3 million as at 30 September 2017 (30 September 2016: €72,723.1 million). Including net savings portions of the premiums from the unit-linked and index-linked life insurance, premiums earned rose in life insurance in the first nine months of 2017 by 9.9 per cent to €1,183.2 million (1–9/2016: €1,076.5 million). In Austria, because of the downward trend, the volume of premiums earned (net, in accordance with IFRSs) fell by 0.8 per cent to €811.8 million (1–9/2016: €818.2 million).
The total amount of net insurance benefits for the UNIQA Group increased in the first three quarters of 2017 by 2.9 per cent to €2,659.0 million (1–9/2016: €2,585.1 million). Insurance benefits before consideration of reinsurance rose by 1.8 per cent to €2,706.4 million (1–9/2016: €2,658.1 million).
Net insurance benefits earned in property and casualty insurance increased by 5.1 per cent to €1,241.3 million on account of the increase in business volume and the hail and storm events in the third quarter of 2017 in Austria (1–9/2016: €1,181.2 million). The loss ratio after reinsurance fell in the first nine months of 2017 to 65.9 per cent as a result of successful attempts to adjust the portfolio (1–9/2016: 66.9 per cent). The combined ratio after reinsurance improved therefore to 97.1 per cent (1–9/2016: 98.3 per cent). Before consideration of the reinsurance, the combined ratio amounted to 93.5 per cent (1–9/2016: 96.3 per cent).
In health insurance, net insurance benefits (including the change in insurance provisions) grew less strongly in the first three quarters of 2017 than the volume of premiums earned, by 1.9 per cent to €652.5 million (1–9/2016: €640.1 million).
They remained more or less stable in life insurance at €765.3 million (1–9/2016: €763.8 million).
Total operating expenses, less reinsurance commission received, rose only slightly in the first nine months of 2017 by 0.9 per cent to €942.7 million (1–9/2016: €934.5 million). At €645.5 million, expenses for the acquisition of insurance remain almost at the same level as in the previous year despite the significant increase in the volume of premiums earned (1–9/2016: €644.4 million). The reinsurance commission received amounting to €14.8 million (1–9/2016: €15.5 million) has already been deducted from the acquisition costs. Other operating expenses (administrative expenses) increased in the first three quarters of 2017 as a result of initial expenses amounting to approximately €25 million in connection with the innovation and investment programme by 2.4 per cent to €297.2 million (1–9/2016: €290.1 million). The total cost ratio, i.e. the ratio of total operating expenses to the premiums earned, including net savings portions from the premiums from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance, fell to 24.5 per cent, taking into account the reinsurance commission received (1–9/2016: 26.0 per cent).
In property and casualty insurance, operating expenses less reinsurance commission received rose in the first three quarters of 2017 by 6.1 per cent to €587.8 million (1–9/2016: €554.2 million). Contributing factors included increased commissions in connection with the growth in premiums written and investments amounting to around €9 million. The cost ratio after reinsurance in this line of business amounted to 31.2 per cent (1–9/2016: 31.4 per cent).
In health insurance, operating expenses less reinsurance commission received fell by 4.6 per cent to €118.3 million (1–9/2016: €124.1 million). The cost ratio after reinsurance improved to 15.2 per cent (1–9/2016: 16.6 per cent).
In life insurance, operating expenses less reinsurance commissions received decreased by 7.7 per cent to €236.5 million (1–9/2016: €256.3 million). The cost ratio after reinsurance fell as a result of this and of the heavy increase in premium revenue in unit-linked and index-linked life insurance to 20.0 per cent (1–9/2016: 23.8 per cent).
The UNIQA Group's investment portfolio (including investment property, financial assets accounted for using the equity method and other investments) decreased to €19,526.7 million as at 30 September 2017 compared with the last reporting date (31 December 2016: €20,024.8 million).
Investment income fell by 6.2 per cent to €393.6 million in the first three quarters of 2017 for a number of reasons including the persistent low interest environment and negative currency effects of around €56 million (1–9/2016: €419.4 million). Write-downs of fixed-income securities in the reporting period were more than compensated by gains on disposals of securities. As the 14.3 per cent holding in construction company STRABAG SE was accounted for using the equity method, there was a positive contribution to the results in the amount of €15.0 million in the first three quarters of 2017 (1–9/2016: €3.6 million).
The UNIQA Group's technical result improved by 69.4 per cent to €97.9 million in the first three quarters of 2017 (1–9/2016: €57.8 million). This improvement reflects the lower cost ratio in health insurance and life insurance along with the improved combined ratio in property and casualty insurance. The operating profit increased by 9.9 per cent to €226.3 million (1–9/2016: €205.9 million). This also includes other expenses amounting to €43.6 million (1–9/2016: €39.6 million). The UNIQA Group's earnings before taxes increased by 21.8 per cent to €181.4 million (1–9/2016: €148.9 million).
Net profit/(loss) for the first nine months of 2017 amounted to €115.5 million (1–9/2016: €149.9 million). This includes a loss from discontinued operations (after tax) amounting to €–33.1 million (1–9/2016: €26.0 million) as a result of purchase price adjustments in conection with the sale of the Italian group companies. Consolidated profit/(loss) (i.e. profit or loss for the period attributable to the shareholders of UNIQA Insurance Group AG) thus decreased by 23.1 per cent to €114.4 million (1–9/2016: €148.8 million). Earnings per share amounted to €0.37 (1–9/2016: €0.48).
Annualised operating return on equity (earnings before taxes and amortisation of goodwill and impairment losses in relation to average equity including non-controlling interests, and excluding the accumulated profits of the valuation of financial instruments available for sale) improved in the first three quarters of 2017, after factoring out the Italian group companies, to 9.4 per cent (1–9/2016: 8.4 per cent). The annualised return on equity (after tax and noncontrolling interests) for the reporting period was 4.8 per cent (1–9/2016: 6.1 per cent).
Total equity attributable to the shareholders of UNIQA Insurance Group AG amounted to €3,107.6 million as at 30 September 2017 (31 December 2016: €3,186.3 million). The noncontrolling interests came to €14.4 million (31 December 2016: €26.5 million). Total assets fell as at 30 September 2017 to €28,679.6 million due to the sale of the Italian group companies (31 December 2016: €33,639.2 million).
Net cash flow from operating activities in the first three quarters of 2017 amounted to €354.5 million (1–9/2016: €558.9 million). Cash flow from the UNIQA Group's investing activities, in line with investment of the revenues received in the reporting period, amounted to €143.6 million (1–9/2016: €–627.4 million), the financing cashflow amounted to €–154.0 million due to dividend payments (1–9/2016: €–147.0 million). Overall, cash and cash equivalents increased by €218.2 million to €893.1 million (1–9/2016: €674.9 million).
The average number of employees (full-time equivalent) of the UNIQA Group fell in the first nine months of 2017 to 12,797 (1–9/2016: 13,584). These included 4,488 (1–9/2016: 5,390) field sales employees. The number of administrative employees increased to 8,309 (1–9/2016: 8,194).
The half-year financial report 2016 included an adjustment in the segment reporting of the UNIQA Group. In addition to UNIQA Austria, the UNIQA Austria segment now also includes the figures for the former Raiffeisen Insurance segment.
The premium volume written including savings portions from the unit-linked and indexlinked life insurance at UNIQA Austria increased slightly in the first three quarters of 2017 by 0.7 per cent to €2,793.9 million (1–9/2016: €2,774.7 million). Recurring premiums rose by an encouraging 2.0 per cent to €2,772.6 million (1–9/2016: €2,717.5 million). Conversely, single premiums dropped significantly by 62.7 per cent to €21.3 million (1–9/2016: €57.2 million). Premiums earned including net savings portions of the premiums from unit-linked and indexlinked life insurance rose by 1.4 per cent to €2,235.2 million (1–9/2016: €2,203.7 million). The volume of net premiums earned (in accordance with IFRSs) also increased by 1.4 per cent to €2,067.6 million (1–9/2016: €2,040.0 million).
Premiums written in property and casualty insurance rose, due to the continuing growth in vehicle and property insurance, by 3.8 per cent to €1,268.5 million (1–9/2016: €1,222.1 million), and in health insurance also UNIQA Austria recorded premium growth of 2.6 per cent to €737.8 million (1–9/2016: €719.2 million).
Premiums written in life insurance, including savings portions of unit-linked and indexlinked life insurance, decreased in the UNIQA Austria segment as a result of the planned contraction in single premium business, falling by 5.5 per cent to €787.7 million (1–9/2016: €833.4 million). Recurring premiums fell by 1.3 per cent to €766.3 million (1–9/2016: €776.2 million). Single premiums fell significantly by 62.7 per cent to €21.3 million (1–9/2016: €57.2 million). Premiums in unit-linked and index-linked life insurance for UNIQA Austria fell in the first three quarters of 2017 by 5.0 per cent to €193.0 million (1–9/2016: €203.2 million).
Net insurance benefits rose slightly in the UNIQA Austria segment in the first nine months of 2017 by 0.3 per cent to €1,761.0 million (1–9/2016: €1,755.5 million). In property and casualty insurance, the combined ratio after reinsurance improved to 92.3 per cent (1–9/2016: 93.3 per cent).
Overall operating expenses, less reinsurance commission received, fell in the first three quarters of 2017 by 5.7 per cent to €400.4 million (1–9/2016: €424.7 million). The cost ratio after reinsurance therefore fell to 17.9 per cent (1–9/2016: 19.3 per cent).
Investment income decreased in the first nine months of 2017 by 4.6 per cent to €339.4 million as a result of lower liquidation proceeds and currency losses (1–9/2016: €355.8 million). Earnings before taxes in the UNIQA Austria segment rose in the first three quarters of 2017 by 17.8 per cent to €193.9 million (1–9/2016: €164.6 million).
In the UNIQA International segment, premiums written, including savings portions from unitlinked and index-linked life insurance, rose by 19.7 per cent in the first nine months of 2017 to €1,217.7 million, as a result of major contracts in Ukraine and Liechtenstein and strong life insurance growth in Poland (1–9/2016: €1,017.3 million). Single premiums increased significantly to €185.3 million (1–9/2016: €59.6 million). Recurring premiums also rose by 7.8 per cent to €1,032.4 million (1–9/2016: €957.8 million). The international companies thereby contributed a total of 30.1 per cent overall in the first three quarters of 2017 (1–9/2016: 26.7 per cent) to total Group premiums. Premiums earned including net savings portions of the premiums from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance increased by 24.9 per cent to €864.3 million (1–9/2016: €691.9 million). The volume of premiums earned (net, in accordance with IFRSs) rose by 10.6 per cent to €660.5 million (1–9/2016: €597.3 million).
In Central Europe (CE) – i.e. Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic – the premium volume written, including savings portions from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance, rose in the first nine months of 2017 by 25.4 per cent to €782.3 million (1–9/2016: €623.9 million). In the region of Eastern Europe (EE), comprising Romania and Ukraine, an increase of 7.0 per cent to €129.2 million was recorded (1–9/2016: €120.8 million). The premium volume written, including savings portions from unit-linked and index-linked life insurance, in Southeastern Europe (SEE) – Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia – increased by 2.9 per cent to €212.0 million (1–9/2016: €205.9 million). In Russia (RU), the volume of premiums written grew by 44.6 per cent to €58.9 million (1–9/2016: €40.8 million). In Western Europe (WE) – Liechtenstein and Switzerland – they increased by 35.9 per cent to €35.3 million (1–9/2016: €26.0 million).
Premiums written in the UNIQA International segment in property and casualty insurance rose by 7.3 per cent to €753.5 million as a result of the strong growth in other property insurance (1–9/2016: €702.5 million). This meant the contribution of Group companies outside Austria to overall premiums in property and casualty insurance amounted to 36.8 per cent (1–9/2016: 36.3 per cent).
Premiums written in health insurance increased in the first three quarters of 2017 by 27.3 per cent to €46.0 million (1–9/2016: €36.1 million). As such, the segment was responsible for 5.9 per cent (1–9/2016: 4.8 per cent) of health insurance premiums in the UNIQA Group.
In the international life insurance business, the premiums written including savings portions from the unit-linked and index-linked life insurance rose in the first nine months of 2017 by 50.1 per cent to €418.2 million (1–9/2016: €278.7 million), largely driven by strong growth in single premiums in unit-linked and index-linked life insurance in Poland. Single premiums multiplied to €185.3 million (1–9/2016: €59.6 million) and recurring premiums also rose by 6.3 per cent to €232.9 million) (1–9/2016: €219.1 million).

The generally benign trend on stock markets continued in the third quarter of 2017 on the back of substantial corporate profits, the favourable economic position and the prospect of a continuation in the protracted period of low interest rates. The MSCI World Index, which measures share price movements in the industrialised countries, rose by 4.4 per cent in the third quarter and was therefore already 14.2 per cent higher than the level at the end of 2016. An even stronger increase was evident in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which climbed by 7.0 per cent in the third quarter of 2017, boosting the gain compared with the end of 2016 to 25.5 per cent. Uncertainties in relation to both domestic and foreign policy had barely any impact on the uptrend in US stock markets in the third quarter of 2017, whereas sharp growth in corporate profits and lower inflation expectations fuelled the rise in share prices. In the year to date, both the Dow Jones Industrial (DJI) and the NASDAQ Composite have hit historic highs a number of times. Overall growth in the third quarter of 2017 reached 4.9 per cent for the DJI and 5.8 per cent for the NASDAQ Composite; the total increase for the first three quarters of 2017 amounted to 13.4 per cent and 20.7 per cent respectively.
Share price trends were rather more subdued in Europe, where the rise in the value of the euro and concerns about a tighter ECB monetary policy led to a fall in prices from the middle of the second quarter of 2017. However, favourable macroeconomic data and, primarily, positive business news produced a sharp uptick in share prices from August 2017, as a result of which the Euro Stoxx 50 ended the third quarter up by a respectable 4.4 per cent, taking the increase for the whole of the current year to date to 9.2 per cent.
As a consequence of positive economic trends in key countries and forecasts of low interest rates over the longer term, prices well and truly skyrocketed in many emerging markets. The CECE Eastern Europe index soared with growth rates similar to those in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index: the gain in the third quarter of 2017 came to 5.4 per cent, pushing the overall gain for the year to date to 23.4 per cent. The region benefited from the strong demand in the fast-growing eurozone this year and a stable domestic economy.

The Austrian ATX index posted gains of 6.7 per cent in the third quarter of 2017, maintaining the impressive upward trend on the Vienna Stock Exchange for the fifth quarter in succession. At the end of September 2017, the index stood at 3,315.97 points, more than 25 per cent higher than the level at the end of 2016. Based on this growth, the Vienna Stock Exchange is one of the most dynamic trading venues in the world. Generally favourable economic data and significant rises in corporate profits are boosting interest in Austrian equities, which is also reflected in corresponding increases in share turnover.
The UNIQA share price remained at a high level in the third quarter of 2017. It reached a high for the year of €8.87 on 17 July 2017. The share price on 30 September 2017 was €8.86. It subsequently held steady within a narrow range and stood at €8.74 on 2 November 2017. Compared with the 2016 year-end price (€7.20), this equates to a gain of 21.4 per cent.

As a result of the strong performance in the first three quarters of 2017, UNIQA now expects overall growth in premiums written of around 4 per cent for 2017. More than 4 per cent is expected in property and casualty insurance premiums in 2017, driven by both Austria and CEE. In line with the long-term trend, UNIQA is anticipating an increase of around 3 per cent in health insurance, generated primarily by business in Austria. In contrast, demand is expected to remain sluggish for life insurance in Austria due to the low interest rate environment. For CEE on the other hand, UNIQA expects significant growth in life insurance for 2017, driven by the strength of the single premium business in Poland.
In 2016, UNIQA began the largest investment programme in the company's history, and in the coming years we will be investing around €500 million in redesigning the business model, developing the required staff competencies and necessary IT systems. This significant investment in the future will impact earnings before taxes in the financial year 2017 to a slightly lesser extent than in 2016. In addition, a further decrease in net investment income is to be expected as a consequence of the continuing low interest rate environment. However, capital earnings will not decrease to the same extent as in 2016.
Conversely, UNIQA is striving to improve the combined ratio (after reinsurance) in 2017 to 97.5 per cent. This means increasing profitability for the core business in property and casualty insurance.
Overall, UNIQA is expecting a slight improvement in earnings before taxes for the financial year 2017– despite the damage caused by bad weather in the third and fourth quarters. Notwithstanding ongoing investments and the challenging low interest rate environment, UNIQA intends to continue increasing its annual distribution per share over the next few years as part of a progressive dividend policy.

The amounts indicated for each business line have been adjusted to eliminate amounts resulting from internal transactions. Therefore, the balance of segment assets and segment equity and liabilities does not allow conclusions to be drawn with regard to the equity allocated to the respective business line.
The consolidated interim financial statements as at 30 September 2017 were prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) recognised by the European Union (EU) as well as the interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee. The additional requirements of Section 245a(1) of the Austrian Commercial Code and Section 138(8) of the Austrian Insurance Supervision Act were met.
The accounting, measurement and consolidation principles correspond to those applied in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2016. The functional currency for UNIQA Insurance Group AG is the euro.
On 1 July 2008, securities previously available for sale were reclassified according to IAS 39/50E as other loans. Overall, fixed-income securities with a carrying amount of €2,129.6 million were reclassified. The corresponding revaluation reserve amounted to €–98.2 million as at 30 June 2008. The fair value as at 30 September 2017 amounted to €242.8 million (31 December 2016: €487.3 million). The carrying amount of the reclassified securities as at 30 September 2017 was €219.4 million (31 December 2016: €462.5 million).
In accordance with IAS 34.41, estimates and planning have been used to a greater extent in preparing the quarterly financial statements than for annual reporting.
The consolidated interim financial statenments were prepared in millions of euros (rounded based on commercial rounding methods). Rounding differences may occur when totalling rounded amounts and percentages.
The basis of consolidation – including UNIQA Insurance Group AG – included 98 consolidated companies (31 December 2016: 116) and 7 associates (31 December 2016: 7) accounted for using the equity method.
By way of a resolution dated 27 July 2015, UNIQA decided to divest its 29 per cent holding in Medial Beteiligungs-Gesellschaft mbH (Vienna). This is therefore reported under assets in disposal groups held for sale (Group functions segment). Medial Beteiligungs-Gesellschaft m.b.H. has an equity investment of around 38 per cent in Casinos Austria Aktiengesellschaft (Vienna); correspondingly, UNIQA holds an interest of around 11 per cent in Casinos Austria Aktiengesellschaft. By means of a transfer agreement dated 3 January 2017, UNIQA sold its 29 per cent holding in Medial Beteiligungs-Gesellschaft mbH to CAME Holding GmbH (Vienna). The sale to CAME Holding GmbH is subject to a condition precedent. The conditions precedent are essentially approvals required under public law. Closing is expected in the first half of 2018.
The sale of the 99.7 per cent holding in UNIQA Assicurazioni S.p.A. (Milan, Italy) to Società Reale Mutua di Assicurazioni (Turin, Italy), as decided by the Supervisory Board on 2 December 2016, was closed on 16 May 2017. This also included the company's subsidiaries operating in Italy: UNIQA Previdenza S.p.A. (Milan, Italy) and UNIQA Life S.p.A. (Milan, Italy).
Further changes in the basis of consolidation relate to mergers in the period between 27 May 2017 and 9 September 2017 of a total of 15 companies (14 real estate companies and a domestic group service company) into the companies UNIQA Real Estate Property Holding GmbH (Vienna), UNIQA Retail Property GmbH (Vienna) (previously: Raiffeisen-Fachmarktzentrum VIER GmbH) and R-FMZ Immobilienholding GmbH (Vienna).

A range of Group accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of the fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The Group has defined a control framework with regard to the calculation of fair value. This includes a measurement team, which bears general responsibility for monitoring all major measurements of fair value, including Level 3 fair values, and reports to the Group Management Board.
The measurement team carries out a regular review of the major unobservable inputs and the measurement adjustments. If information from third parties (e.g. price quotations from brokers or price information services) is used to determine fair values, the measurement team examines the evidence obtained from the third parties for the conclusion that such measurements meet the requirements of IFRSs, including the level in the fair value hierarchy to which these measurements are attributable. Major items in the measurement are reported to the Audit Committee.
As far as possible, the Group uses data that are observable on the market when determining the fair value of an asset or a liability. On the basis of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the fair values are assigned to different levels in the fair value hierarchy:
If the inputs used to determine the fair value of an asset or a liability can be assigned to different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the entire fair value measurement is assigned to the respective level of the fair value hierarchy that corresponds to the lowest input significant for the measurement overall.
The Group recognises reclassifications between different levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period in which the change occurred.
For the valuation of capital investments, procedures that are best suited for appropriate ascertainment of the value are applied primarily in the Group. The following standard valuation procedures are applied for financial instruments which come under Levels 2 and 3:
The valuation method in the market value-oriented approach is based on prices or other material information from market transactions which involve identical or comparable assets and liabilities.
The net present value approach corresponds to the method whereby the future (expected) payment flows or earnings are inferred on a current amount.
The cost-oriented approach generally corresponds to the value which would have to be applied in order to procure the asset once again.
The fair value of investment property within the scope of the impairment test in accordance with IAS 36, as well as for the disclosures according to IFRS 13, is determined based on expert reports.
The loans are accounted for at amortised cost in accordance with the valuation method in the "Loans and receivables" category. Any required impairment is determined with due regard to the collateral and the debtor's creditworthiness.
The fair value of financial liabilities and subordinated liabilities is determined using the discounted cash flow method. Yield curves and CDS spreads are used as inputs.

The transfers between levels 2 and 3 were made as a result of changes in the observability of the relevant inputs. Due to the merger of Raiffeisen Zentralbank Österreich Aktiengesellschaft, Vienna (RZB), with Raiffeisen Bank International AG, Vienna (RBI), UNIQA now holds shares in RBI. Following the market listing of RBI these now have Level 1 input parameters, resulting in a transfer of the former RZB shares to Level 1.
For the most important financial instruments in Level 3, an increase in the discount rate by 100 basis points results in a 1.7 per cent reduction in the value. A reduction in the discount rate by 100 basis points results in a 2.2 per cent increase in value.
Due to the contract of assignment dated 28 July 2015, the 29 per cent holding in Medial Beteiligungs-Gesellschaft m.b.H. (Vienna) (Medial) is recorded under this item.
On 16 May 2017, the sale of the 99.7 per cent holding in the Group company UNIQA Assicurazioni S.p.A. (Italian Group) was closed. Assets and liabilities that were recorded under the item "Assets and liabilities in disposal groups held for sale" up until the closing were derecognised accordingly.
Assets and liabilities in disposal groups held for sale are as follows:

In the course of the sale of the Italian Group, UNIQA provided a contractual guarantee to Società Reale Mutua di Assicurazioni in the amount of maximum €40 million from the sales partnership with Veneto Banca S.p.A. (Montebelluna, Italy), which remains in place until 2019.
According to the current status of the insolvency proceedings regarding Veneto Banca S.p.A. that began in June 2017, Banca Intesa Sanpaolo (Turin, Italy) will be taking over part of Veneto Banca's business. However, the sales partnership with the UNIQA Italian Group will probably not be taken over as part of this process. As a result, UNIQA is likely to be liable for payment of the full amount based on the contractual guarantee. A corresponding provision of €40 million has been formed for this purpose.
The Italian Group was finally deconsolidated effective 30 June 2017. The net assets sold and the net profit from the deconsolidation are composed of the following:
