drawn up and communicated to stakeholders.The expected
outflow of funds will occur in 2018 and 2019.
An addition of 51 (2016: 514) in the provision for legal issues
was made for the SME interest rate derivatives recovery
framework. For additional information, please refer to section
4.10,'Legal and arbitration proceedings'.
The provision for legal issues is based on the best possible
estimates available at year-end, taking into account legal advice.
The timing of the cash outflow relating to these provisions is
uncertain because the outcome of the disputes and the time
involved are unpredictable.
In the additions to the Other provisions, an amount of 310 is
included in anticipation on an expected settlement connected
to previously disclosed investigations at Rabobank National
Association (RNA). For additional information, please refer to
section 4.10,'Legal and arbitration proceedings'. Besides this
provision, the Other provisions include provisions for onerous
contracts and credit related contingent liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured for all temporary
differences using the 'liability' method. The effective tax rate
in the Netherlands for measuring deferred tax is 25% (2016:
25%)There were no changes in deferred tax assets and
liabilities resulting from changes in the effective tax rate in
the Netherlands. No deferred tax asset has been recognised
for unused tax losses totalling 1,544 (2016:1,628).These carry
forward losses relate to various tax authorities and their term to
maturity is largely unlimited.
Deferred tax assets recognised in respect of carry forward losses
can only be utilised if taxable profits are realised in the future.
On 31 December 2017, Rabobank expects that sufficient taxable
profits would be generated within the applicable periods.
