Financing and dividend
Increases in loans during 2000 contributed liquid funds, net, of SEK 8.1 billion, of which new
borrowing during the year, mainly through the issue of bonds and a commercial paper prog-
ram, contributed SEK 19.5 billion.
During the year, Volvo Group loans, excluding Financial Services, rose SEK 5.3 billion,
which was mainly attributable to increased borrowing during the first quarter pending the
planned acquisition of Scania. A dividend amounting to SEK 3.1 billion was paid to AB Volvo
shareholders during the year.
Change in liquid funds
The Group’s liquid funds decreased by SEK 13.3 billion during the year, to SEK 16.0 billion,
mainly due to dividends paid and repurchase of own shares.
