Munich, January 16, 2013 - Banking and finance expert Jan-Christian Dreesen

mutual consent as of December 31, 2012, the Executive Board will, as agreed
with the Supervisory Board, seek the approval of the Court of Registration

Hailing from Aurich in Lower Saxony, Mr. Dreesen is 45 years old, married

various financial institutions, most recently as the member of BayernLB's
Board of Management overseeing the Corporates, segment.
'We would like to thank Eugen Angster for his outstanding work. As someone
who has been there from the beginning, he has played an important part in
our success story. We wish him all the best for his personal and
professional future,' comments CEO Dr. Dirk Markus. 'We have found the
ideal successor in the form of Jan-Christian Dreesen. Our Supervisory Board
will benefit greatly from his wide-ranging banking and finance expertise,'
comments Dirk Roesing, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of AURELIUS AG.
The members of the Executive Board of AURELIUS AG - Dr. Dirk Markus, Gert
Purkert and Donatus Albrecht - have extended their employment contracts for
a further three years, to the end of 2015 and mid-2016, thus making a clear
commitment to the company.

consolidated revenues increased by 7.2 percent to EUR 1,017.4 million. On
an annualized basis, consolidated revenues broke the 1.5 billion euro mark

goals over the coming years,' states Dr. Dirk Markus. 'In the long run, we
