ese are eective weighted changes in the respective present
valueof the dened benet obligations, e. g. taking into account
thelargely xed nature of the pension increase for Germany.
A one-year increase in life expectancy for a -year-old ben e-
ciary would increase the present value of the dened benet
obligations by .  in Germany (previous year: . ) and by
.  in the  (previous year: . ). e corresponding increase
for other countries would be .  (previous year: . ), for a
total increase of .  (previous year: . ).
When determining the sensitivity disclosures, the present values
were calculated using the same methodology used to calculate the
present values at the reporting date. e presentation does not take
into account interdependencies between the assumptions; rather, it
supposes that the assumptions change in isolation. is would be
unusual in practice, since assumptions are oen correlated.
e weighted average duration of the Groups dened benet
obligations at  December  was . years in Germany (previ-
ous year: . years) and . years in the  (previous year:
.years). In the other countries it was . years (previous year:
. years), and in total it was . years (previous year: . years).
A total of .  (previous year: . ) of the present value
ofthe dened benet obligations was attributable to active bene-
ciaries, .  (previous year: . ) to terminated beneciaries and
.  (previous year: . ) to retirees.
