Return on Average Capital Employed and Equity

Both IFRS Return on Average Capital Employed (ROACE) and Return on Average Shareholders’ Equity (ROAE) increased, to 6.3% and 7.3% respectively in 2016. This was primarily the result of the higher EBIT and Net Result reported under IFRS in 2016 while equity and capital employed remained almost stable.
