<strong>We</strong> achieve excellence in financial asset<br />

Utilising synergies in the Group<br />

management with our expert approach, long years<br />

of experience in the domestic <strong>and</strong> regional capital<br />

markets <strong>and</strong> through international links. This is<br />

reflected in the operating results of our investment<br />

funds which are, to a great extent, dependent on<br />

developments on individual capital markets.<br />

<strong>We</strong> were extremely successful in this area, as<br />

the majority of funds (17) exceeded established<br />

benchmarks. Several investment funds managed<br />

by management companies within the Group have<br />

received various domestic <strong>and</strong> international awards<br />

for successful asset management.<br />

The Group holds a 15 percent share of the<br />

Slovenian life insurance market, while the Group’s<br />

specialised life insurance company has risen to<br />

second position. The Group successfully markets life<br />

insurance in other markets in the region.<br />

Unit-linked life insurance products, primarily<br />

Fondpolica, st<strong>and</strong> out as the most successful<br />

insurance products in the past year, both in Slovenia<br />

<strong>and</strong> across the entire region. With an 18 percent<br />

market share, the insurance company Adriatic<br />

Slovenica consolidated second position among<br />

composite insurance companies in Slovenia in 2007.<br />

<strong>We</strong> began to actively carry out a project to<br />

develop banking services. The project included a<br />

<strong>group</strong> of experienced banking experts. Banking will<br />

complement other insurance <strong>and</strong> financial products<br />

<strong>and</strong> bring the Group’s range of products <strong>and</strong><br />

services full circle.<br />

<strong>We</strong> accelerated the development of a new real<br />

estate division. Our main project in this regard is the<br />

Šumi <strong>business</strong> complex in Ljubljana.<br />

In the past year, we reorganised the Group<br />

<strong>and</strong> began introducing division-based operations.<br />

Thus the Group operates in the following divisions:<br />

investment fund management, private wealth<br />

management <strong>and</strong> stockbroking, insurance, capital<br />

investments <strong>and</strong> real estate. Division managers are<br />

the presidents of the management boards of the<br />

largest companies within a specific division. The<br />

new arrangement will facilitate more efficient <strong>and</strong><br />

transparent operations.<br />

<strong>We</strong> continued our growth in regional markets<br />

where we are already present by introducing<br />

complementary products to complete our offer of<br />

mutual funds, private wealth management, life<br />

insurance, stockbroking <strong>and</strong> sales of financial<br />

services.<br />

The strengths of several companies within KD<br />

Holding Group both at home <strong>and</strong> throughout the<br />

region were also successfully combined in the area of<br />

financial-insurance products.<br />
