There were no changes to the legal organizational structure of MTU Aero Engines Holding AG, Munich in the financial year 2009. MTU Aero Engines Holding AG, Munich is a management holding company, and as such does not conduct business itself, but manages its interests in the MTU group through group- wide corporate functions. The revenues reported by the parent company, amounting to € 11.6 million, relate exclusively to revenues resulting from the exercise of functions on behalf of the group in its capa- city as a holding company. No changes were made to the administrative structure or to organizational processes, and no such changes were planned at the time this Annual Report went to press.
From an organizational point of view, MTU Aero Engines Holding AG, Munich is divided into four decision- making units, corresponding to the portfolios of the Board of Management members (see biographies on page 22).
Egon Behle is chairman of the Board of Management and the company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO). He bears overall responsibility for the corporate decision-making units, and is personally in charge of program management for commercial and military engine programs, business development, corporate communications, investor relations, legal affairs, intellectual property management, corporate audits and corporate security.

Disclosures concerning this addition to the group’s assets can be found in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements under ‘Financial assets’.

MTU’s aims are unswervingly geared towards strengthening the company’s strategic position and continuing to expand its lead through targeted, profitable growth. Its key objective is to improve competitiveness and work towards the company’s projected growth targets by acquiring stakes in the engine programs that offer the best opportunities for future business success, in both the OEM and the MRO segments.
MTU has aligned the activities of all operating segments with its growth targets. The global economic crisis may have stretched the timeframe within which these targets can be met, but has by no means diminished long-term prospects for growth. The company already holds a large share of the service and MRO markets, and has paved the way to further sustainable growth with its forward-looking program portfolio, well-estab- lished and durable customer relationships, motivated workforce, and global structures to reinforce its position in the major growth markets.
Extension of technological leadership
In the light of progressive global warming and spiraling kerosene prices, the development of future generations of engines focuses more than ever before on environmental compatibility and cost- efficiency. MTU is closely cooperating with partners from research and industry to develop and implement innovative, environment-friendly propulsion systems; examples include the geared turbo- fan and the Claire engine concept (see under ‘Research and development’). In the engine maintenance sector, too, MTU plans to extend its technological leadership by developing innovative, cost-effective repair techniques. 1.3. Corporate strategy and control 1.3.1.
