The remaining portion of the loans to related parties amounting to kCHF 150 (2008: kCHF 250) include the uneliminated portion of a loan granted to a joint-venture company bearing interest at 4% (2008: 4%). The effective interest rate on third party loans was 2.25% (2008: 4.83%). Others mainly consist of guarantee deposits.
