, million (previous year:  million) of the deferred taxes on
tax loss carryforwards relates to tax loss carryforwards in Germany
and  million (previous year:  million) to foreign tax loss
carryforwards.
No deferred tax assets were recognised for tax loss carryfor-
wards of around . billion (previous year: . billion) and for
temporary dierences of around , million (previous year:
, million), as it can be assumed that the Group will probably
not be able to use these tax loss carryforwards and temporary dif-
ferences in its tax planning.
Most of the tax loss carryforwards in Germany are attributable
to Deutsche Post . It will be possible to utilise them for an in-
denite period of time. In the case of the foreign companies, the
signicant tax loss carryforwards will not lapse before .
Deferred taxes have not been recognised for temporary dier-
ences of  million (previous year:  million) relating to earn-
ings of German and foreign subsidiaries because these temporary
dierences will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future.
