Investments and long-term loans comprised investments of €537 million (2010: €190 million), mainly regarding the joint venture between Fresenius Medical Care and Galenica Ltd., that were accounted for under the equity method. In 2011, income of €22 million (2010: €4 million) resulting from this valuation was included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Furthermore, investments and long-term loans include €181 million (2010: €0 million) that Fresenius Medical Care loaned to Renal Advantage Partners, LLC.

The receivables resulting from the German “Krankenhaus- finanzierungsgesetz” primarily contain approved but not yet received earmarked subsidies of the Fresenius Helios operations. The approval is evidenced in a letter written by the granting authorities that Fresenius Helios has already received.

In the fiscal year, the amount of depreciation recognized on other non-current assets was immaterial (2010: €2 million).
