After the conversion, the State's holding stood at 65.96 per cent and the government-owned Financial Stability Company (Finansiel Stabilitet A/S) holds 1.5 per cent of the total share capital and votes; and -- The need for impairments is also expected to be high in 2013, but at a significantly lower level than in 2012. Due to the Bank's loan risk profile uncertainty remains about the exact level of expected impairments. Capital: -- The challenges related to the capital conditions are big, and on 18 October 2013 the Bank issued a company announcement regarding a study of structural measures that could improve the Bank's solvency more permanently. This study has yet to produce any specific conclusions; and -- It is anticipated that the Financial Supervisory Authority will begin enforcing the new CRD IV rules as they are implemented into Danish law and expected to enter into effect on 31 March 2014. The new rules are currently being studied and this work will continue. The new rules are anticipated to have a negative impact on how the Bank's solvency ratio is calculated and may create uncertainty with respect to whether the Bank will subsequently have an adequate level of solvency; these are some of the concerns regarding structural measures that Management is currently studying.
