[Trading for own account] BayernLB will end dedicated proprietary trading. This means that BayernLB will carry on only trading activities indicated in its trading book that are necessary either (a) for accepting, transferring and executing its customers' sales and purchase orders and hedge instruments directly related thereto (i.e. trading with financial instruments as a service, up to a value measured in value at risk for market price changes of EUR [0-50] million/1 day, 99 % confidence) or (b) for liquidity and ALM management (interest, foreign exchange, management of the liquidity reserve, management of collateral for secured refinancing operations) or (c) for the economic transfer of balance sheet items to the restructuring unit or to third parties. Under no circumstances will BayernLB carry on business activities that serve purely to make a profit apart from the purposes mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above.
