decrease was attributable to a large number of minor factors. e reasons for the
 million increase in cash and cash equivalents to , million are described in
the section entitled Financial position.
At , million, equity attributable to Deutsche Post  shareholders was
, million higher than at  December  (, million). Consolidated net
prot for the period, the increased discount rates applicable to pension provisions and
positive currency eects made a positive contribution, whereas the dividend payment
to our shareholders reduced equity.
Current and non-current liabilities rose slightly from , million to , mil-
lion. e increase related to trade payables in particular; they rose by  million to
, million, due mainly to exchange rate movements. Other current liabilities rose
by  million to , million, partly due to a rise in liabilities to employees. At
, million, nancial liabilities barely changed from the , million recorded as
at  December :while non-current nancial liabilities declined by  million to
, million, current nancial liabilities rose by  million to  million. At
, million, current and non-current provisions were signicantly down on the gure
of , million as at  December : actuarial gains attributable to a rise in inter-
est rates led to a decline in provisions for pensions.
Net debt drops to , million
Our net debt declined sharply from , million as at  December  to , mil-
