1) Direct investment

The equity interests stated are also the share of the voting power in the investees listed.
Zurich Airport International AG, the wholly-owned subsidiary responsible for advising, operating and/or owning airports and airport-related companies throughout the world, holds all the investees existing in this context (with the exception of those in Venezuela).
In 2010, Zurich Airport Ltd. and its consortium partner Unique IDC turned to the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) in Washington D.C. in the matter of the airport expropriated in Venezuela (Isla de Margarita). This step is in compliance with the investment protection treaty between Venezuela, Switzerland and Chile. The ICSID reached its decision in November 2014, requiring the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to reimburse the consortium the costs incurred for the proceedings and project plus a compensation payment and interest incurred up until receipt of payment. After an application for annulment was rejected, the tribunal’s decision is definitive and final. The value of this holding has been fully impaired.
