The holding period of 3i's investment portfolio is on average greater than one year. For this reason the Directors have classified the portfolio as non-current. It is not possible to identify with certainty investments that will be sold within one year.

Additions to loans and receivables includes £73 million (2006: £45 million) interest received by way of loan notes. A corresponding amount has been included in income from loans and receivables.

Other movements include foreign exchange and conversions from one instrument into another.
