Med udgangspunkt i WestLB's reviderede balancesum pr. 31. december 2007 (287 mia. EUR) skal den samlede balancesum inden den 31. marts 2010 reduceres med i alt 25 % og inden den 31. marts 2011 med i alt 50 %, uden hensyntagen til derivaternes markedsværdi ([20-60] mia. EUR pr. 31. december 2007).
By reference to WestLB’s audited balance sheet total for 31 December 2007 (EUR 287 billion), the balance sheet total is to be reduced by 25 % by 31 March 2010 and by 50 % by 31 March 2011, excluding the market value of derivatives (EUR [20–60] billion on 31 December 2007).
