Outlook for leasing
Capital requirement and RAROC
De Lage Landen's capital requirement was stable at EUR 1.2 (1.2) billion in the year under
review. The required economic capital, i.e. the internal capital requirement, stood at EUR 1.1
(1.1) billion. The Risk Adjusted Return On Capital (RAROC) ratio increased by 7.9 percentage
points to 18.3% (10.4%).
In 2011De Lage Landen will concentrate on further growth of the portfolio inline with the
strategic plan. As in 2010, focus will be on the Netherlands and on food and agri internationally.
De Lage Landen expects the market to improve slightly over the coming year. Competition will
likely become fiercer, weighing down margins on new contracts.
