The total remuneration of the independent auditor has increased compared to last year. This increase is related to a contract renewal and to additional audit work that was provided, related to a model conversion in the US and to the conversion to IFRS 9 in the Netherlands. In addition, the total remuneration for 2016 did not yet include the fees for the audit of the 2016 Solvency II figures, as these fees were invoiced in and booked in 2017.
