The equity instruments recognised at fair value through other comprehensive income consist of strategic investments of an infrastructure nature, which are not exchange-listed (see note 33), as well as various equities of the Swiss Market Index (SMI). Short-term profit-taking is not the focus with equity instruments recognised at fair value through other comprehensive income, rather they represent a long-term position which pursues the collection of dividends and a long-term appreciation in value.

Within the scope of the reweighting of the SMI, LLB adjusted its portfolio of equities recognised in other comprehensive income. The disposals resulted in a loss of CHF thousands 4ʼ241 (previous year: minus CHF thousands 141). The fair value of the transactions amounted to CHF thousands 9ʼ607 (previous year: CHF thousands 6ʼ955). The loss was recognised directly in retained earnings.
