Basel 2.5 requires the deduction of goodwill from Tier 1 capital. However, for a transitional period, section 64h (3) of the German Banking Act allows the partial inclusion of certain goodwill components in Tier 1 capital. While such goodwill components are not included in the regulatory capital and capital adequacy ratios shown above, the Group makes use of this transition rule in its capital adequacy reporting to the German regulatory authorities.
As of June 30, 2012, the transitional item amounted to € 274 million compared to € 319 million as of December 31, 2011. In the Group’s reporting to the German regulatory authorities, the Tier 1 capital, total regulatory capital and the total risk-weighted assets shown above were increased by this amount. Correspondingly, the Group’s reported Tier 1 and total capital ratios including this item were 13.6 % and 15.1 %, respectively, at the end of the second quarter compared to 12.9 % and 14.6 % on December 31, 2011.
