At the end of the reporting period, impairment allowances
of euro  million (: euro  million) were recognised
on a group basis on gross receivables from sales financing
totalling euro , million (: euro , million). Im-
pairment allowances of euro  million (: euro  mil-
lion) were recognised at  December  on a specific
item basis on gross receivables from sales financing total-
ling euro , million (: euro , million).
Receivables from sales financing which were not overdue
at the end of the reporting period amounted to euro ,
million (: euro , million). No impairment losses
were recognised for these balances.
The estimated fair value of collateral received for receiva-
bles on which impairment losses were recognised totalled
euro , million (: euro , million) at the end of
the reporting period. This collateral related primarily to
vehicles. The carrying amount of assets held as collateral
and taken back as a result of payment default amounted to
euro  million (: euro  million).
As in the previous year, there were no receivables from
sales financing at the end of the reporting period which
have been renegotiated and which were otherwise over-
due or otherwise required recognition of an impairment
loss.

The change in the line item “Interest and currency deriva-
tives” relates primarily to changed exchange rate parities
and the changed interest rate structure.

funds was primarily attributable to the transfer of securities
to the newly founded BMW Trust e. V., Munich, in con-
junction with the creation of an external fund for pension
obligations.
Marketable securities and investment funds relate to avail-
able-for-sale financial assets and comprise:
