FOReWORD

ForewordbytheChairmanoftheBoardofTrusteesontheeighthbusinessyearoftheSwissportCompanyPensionScheme(PersonalvorsorgeSwissport/PVS).

From the banking crisis to the sovereign debt crisisLast year was a major challenge for us all. We were able to, or rather were forced to, adjust the conversion factor in response to longstanding developments in the capital market and to longevity trends of the population. We also had to adjust to the new provisions of structural reform.

Actuarial appraisalThe following is a summary of the actuarial appraisal as at 31 December 2011 presented by the accredited pensionactuary:

ThePVSisasemi-autonomousoccupationalpensionscheme.Ithasreinsuredtherisksofdeathanddisabilitysince1January2011.Theriskinsurancepremiumof2.5%didnotneedtobeadjustedfor2011.

The number of working insurees has increased, as has the number of pension recipients. The calculations were based on the new BVG 2010 actuarial data and on the standard cross-sectional mortality table projected to 2012. Our structure of insurees shows a healthy picture. The number of people who are nearing retirement age (older than 58) is fairly high. The average age of our insurees is 40.9 years, which is relatively low compared with that of an average pension scheme (44 years).

Investment regulationsThe structural reform of occupational pensions has made a revision of the investment regulations necessary. Following extensive groundwork, the Board of Trustees approved the investment regulations valid from 1January2012atitsmeetingon31January2012.TheOfficeofOccupationalPensionPlansandFoundationsoftheCantonofZurichhassinceapprovedthenewregulations.

Regulations concerning provisions and fluctuation reservesTheseregulationsgovernthesettingupofprovisionsandfluctuationreserves.Theymustbeobservedbytheexpertwhencalculatingtechnicalprovisionsandfluctuationreserves.

The new BVG 2010 actuarial data together with the standard cross-sectional mortality tables rendered the current regulations obsolete. The Board of Trustees approved the new regulations by circular decision on 29 February 2012; they entered into force with retroactive effect from 31 December 2011.

Stagnating salariesTheaverageinsuredsalaryinthePVSinrecentyears(2009–2011)remainedstableatapproximatelyCHF60500.

Thismeansthat,despitethestagnationinaveragefigures,workinginsureesactuallyreceivearise,albeitsmall, in salary each year. This is because insurees entering retirement earn a higher salary than young insurees who have just joined the company.

Despitetheannualriseinpensionpayments,thePVS‘scashflowfromregulatorycontributionsandbenefitsissettoremainpositiveforyearstocome.ThisishelpedbythefactthatthePVShasrelativelyfewpensionrecipients. As at 31 December 2011, the fund comprised 313 pension recipients (not including recipients of child’spensions)and3448workinginsurees,aratioof1:10.

Determination of interest rates

Interest paid on old-age savings in 2011Initsresolutionof22November2011,theBoardofTrusteesdecidedtopayinterestof2%onallinsurees‘old-agesavingsfor2011(previousyear:2%),therebyadoptingtheBVGinterestratesetbytheSwissFederalCouncil.ThoseinsureeswhoretiredorleftthePVSduringthecourseoftheyearreceivedthisinterestretrospectivelyatthe end of 2011.

Determination of the interest rate payable in 2012 TheBoardofTrusteeswilldecideontheinterestratepayableoninsurees‘retirementsavingstowardstheendof 2012. The Board of Trustees has chosen to proceed in this way as it is impossible to make reliable predic-tionsofdevelopmentsrelatingtothe«thirdcontributor»,i.e.thefinancialmarkets.

Participation of pension recipients in any surplus incomeAspensionsarefully fundedundertheBVGcapitalisationsystem, incontrast totheAHVsystem,whichoperates on a pay-as-you-go basis, there are no pension increases during their term of payment. The accu-mulated capital is consumed during the period of payment of the pensions. Together with the returns gene-ratedoninvestments,thiscapitalmustbesufficienttofundthepensionsduringtheirentireterm.

Participation is possible only in years with a good investment performance, when pension recipients could be allowed to participate in the surplus income generated from their investments. It is possible to allow pen-sionrecipientstoshareintheinvestmentperformanceifthePVShassurplusincomeleftoveraftermeetingallofitsstatutoryandregulatoryobligations.On21September2010,the«Guidelinesontheparticipationofpension recipients in surplus income» were adopted.

Asset management costs relatively low at PVSAstudypublishedbytheFederalSocialInsuranceOfficeintheearlysummerof2011cametotheconclusionthatassetmanagementcostsofSwissoccupationalpensionfundsamounttoaroundCHF3.9billionayear,whichcorrespondsto0.56%oftotalpensionfundassets.

Thesecostsfluctuatebetween0.15%and1.86%ofassets,dependingonthefundinquestion.Onlythosecostschargeddirectlytoapensionfundaredisclosedinthefund‘sannualfinancialstatements.InthecaseofthePVS,thecostsin2011amountedtoCHF409779(2010:CHF576313)or0.07%(2010:0.09%).

This ensures that we are able to broadly diversify our investment risks.

ThismeansthatassetmanagementcostsarerelativelylowatthePVS,andretirementsavingsaremanagedcost-effectively.

When an insuree switches from being a working insuree to a pension recipient, their accumulated old-age savings are converted into a pension.Theconversionratedependson:

• Thelifeexpectancyofpensionrecipients→mortality • Thediscountrateappliedtofuturepensionpayments→technicalinterestrate • Survivors‘pensions→levelofthespouse‘spension

Ourcurrent«EVK2000»actuarialtablesarebasedondatafromtheperiod1993-1998.The«EVK2000»uses a standard cross-sectional mortality table that assumes that all insurees have the same life expec-tancyirrespectiveoftheyearinwhichtheywereborn.Mortalitytablesaresnapshotstakenataparticularpoint in time and do not take account of the increasing life expectancy of insurees.

According to the latest statistics, life expectancy has increased further for both men and women.

ItwasessentialforthePVStoadjustitsconversionfactors(AnnexItotheschemeregulations)inthenearfuture to bring them into line with the trends toward rising life expectancy and persistently low investment returns observable in recent years. Over the last eight business years from 2004 to 2011, we were unfor-tunately unable in any one year to pay interest on the old-age savings of our working insurees at the rate of3.5%assumedinthepensioncalculation.

Asourgenerationalbalancesheetonpage26shows,wehavetransferredaroundCHF6millionfromworkinginsureestopensionrecipientssincetheestablishmentofthePVS–andthetrendisrisingduetotheincreasein pension recipients each year. We have had to restore the balance in treatment between working insurees andpensionrecipientsinourPVSpensionscheme.

The Board of Trustees had to take the necessary action in the light of the actuarial realities. This will not mean takinganythingawayfromourfuturepensionrecipients–wewillsimplybedistributingtheir(unchanged)old-age savings over a greater number of years of life.

New conversion factors with effect from 1 January 2013Initsmeetingon10May2011,theBoardofTrusteesunanimouslydecidedtoreducetheconversionfactorsforold-agepensionsanddeferredspouses‘/partners‘pensionswitheffectfrom1January2013.

Forretirementsasof1December2012andpensionsbeginningasof1January2013,theconversionfactorsset out below now apply. These conversion factors are based on the latest BVG 2010 actuarial data with stan-dardcross-sectionalmortalitytables,atechnicalinterestrateof3%andaspouse‘s/partner‘spensionof70%.

Special arrangements for beneficiaries with night-shift credit/shift holiday entitlementsThe conversion factors hitherto used will continue to apply to all employees with outstanding night-shift credit who begin to draw their pensions after 1 December 2012 insofar as the agreement on retirement with out-standingnight-shiftcreditwassetoutinwritingandagreedirrevocablywiththeemployerbefore30Novem-ber 2012, and the employee begins to draw this outstanding credit no later than 1 December 2012.

Reducingthedeferredspouses‘/partners‘pensionsfrom80%to70%ofcurrentold-ageanddisabilitypensionshas helped to cushion somewhat the reduction in the conversion factors for married members.Thereductioneffectivefrom1January2013willalsoaffectourmarried/registered-partnerpensionrecipientswhostartedtodrawtheirpensionsbeforetheamendmentoftheregulationseffectivefrom1January2013.

To calculate the old-age pension, the conversion factor as a percentage of the savings capital must be used. If theagedifferencebetweenthespouse/partnerismorethan10years,thepensionwillbeadjustedby+/-1%for every year (including years already started) in excess of the 10-year difference.

The table is based on the latest BVG 2010 actuarial data with the standard cross-sectional mortality table, a technicalinterestrateof3.0%andaspouse‘s/partner‘spensionof70%.

The generation table should be used in preference to the standard cross-sectional mortality table as it already takes the future increase in life expectancy into account. If the generation table is used, there is no need to accrue annual provisions for the longevity of pension recipients.

• Revision6astipulatesthatadistinctionmustnowbedrawnbetweenreintegrationpriortodisability(entit-lement to a daily allowance from IV state disability insurance) and reintegration after disability (entitlement to a state IV disability pension and a BVG occupational disability allowance).

• Forthedurationofthereintegrationprocessafterdisability,anindividualisstillentitledtoclaimanIVdisabi-lity pension and an occupational disability allowance from the current pension fund.

• Ifreintegrationissuccessful,thecurrentpensionfundwillremainresponsibleforthecaseinquestionfor a protection period of three years. It will continue to manage the retirement savings process and, where applicable, provide a reduced disability pension. The pension fund of the new employer will not become responsible for the individual until the end of the three-year period. This amendment will necessitate adjustments in technical administration and in the pertinent regulations.

Amendments to regulationsVarious regulations will need to be amended on account of the structural reform of occupational pensions. This will affect the pension scheme, investment and organisational regulations.

The provision for pension losses has been created to compensate for pension losses caused by the conversion rates being too high compared with the technical interest rates.

The provision for death and disability risks is based on the theoretical aggregate claims distribution accordingtoPanierforallworkinginsurees.Thisisusedtoensureadequateprovisionforextremelynegativefluctuationsindeathand/ordisabilityclaims.Theamountiscalculatedtoensurethat,togetherwiththeriskinsurancepremiumsexpected,thereisa99%probabilitythatitwillnotexceedtheclaimsreceived in the following year.

The risk-related provision is a provision for pending disability cases and a provision for death and disability risks.

The risk-related provision is determined using a range with minimum and maximum amounts. This provision is increased through risk insurance premiums, with the capitalised claims deriving from death or disability for the current year taken directly from this provision.

If the risk-related provision falls below the minimum prescribed as a result of the trend in claims, a corresponding amount is transferred to it and charged to the operating result at the balance sheet date. If the risk-related provision exceeds the maximum prescribed, the surplus amount is credited to the operating result at the balance sheet date.
