Limited drop in managed assets
Rabobank Group's assets managed and held in custody for clients saw a limited drop in 2011
falling to EUR 263.6 (270.4) billion, and could be broken down as follows by the subsidiaries:
- Robeco: EUR 150.3 (149.6) billion;
- Sarasin: EUR 79.3 (82.5) billion;
- Schretlen Co: EUR 8.4 (8.4) billion; and
- Rabo Real Estate Group: EUR 7.2 (7.2) billion.
The remainder of clients'assets is held by local Rabobanks. Total inflow of assets into the asset
management business was EUR 7.0 (9.7) billion. The inflow of assets into Robeco stood at
EUR 7.6 billion. Rabobank Group's assets managed and held in custody for clients dropped
nonetheless due, in part, to investment losses in the third quarter and the sale of Banque
Robeco France. Although the stock market did fairly well in the first half of 2011, equities
slumped in the third quarter in particular and only partially recovered in the fourth quarter of
the year. As a result, the asset management business suffered an investment loss of EUR 16.5
billion, compared with an investment income of EUR 15.3 billion in 2010. Total currency gains
stood at EUR 4.9 (16.5) billion.
