Trust pass-through securities are securities through which the holder participates in a trust. The assets of these trusts consist of junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures issued by Transamerica Corporation. The trust pass-through securities carry provisions with regard to deferral of distributions for extension periods up to a maximum of 10 consecutive semi-annual periods. The trust pass-through securities are subordinated to all other unsubordinated borrowings and liabilities of Transamerica Corporation.

There were no defaults or breaches of conditions during the period.

The fair value of these loans amounted to EUR 128 million (2017: EUR 137 million).
