METRO’s representation on the supervisory board of OPCI FRENCH WHOLESALE PROPERTIES – FWP means that significant influence is maintained and equity accounting is appropriate, although the investment only amounts to 5%.

The investments accounted for using the equity method within the group are mainly associate and rental companies. The main purpose of the rental companies is to acquire, lease out and manage assets. The assets of these real estate companies are mainly leased by METRO companies.
