Other bonds
Other bonds consist primarily of industrial revenue and pollution control bonds of the BASF Corporation group that were used to finance investments in the United States. Both the weighted-average interest rate of these bonds as well as their weighted-average effective interest rate amounted to 3.1% in 2017 and 2.1% in 2016. The average residual term amounted to 183 months as of December 31, 2017 (December 31, 2016: 195 months).
Liabilities to credit institutions
In order to finance the natural gas transportation business, a €1,650 million loan was incurred with a 5-year term at an interest rate of 1.08% in 2014. In 2017, €925 million of this amount was transferred to the newly established company W & G Infrastruktur Finanzierungs-GmbH, Kassel, Germany, accounted for using the equity method, to finance the natural gas transportation companies, GASCADE Gastranport GmbH, Kassel, Germany, and NEL Gastransport GmbH, Kassel, Germany, which are also accounted for using the equity method.
The weighted average interest rate on loans amounted to 4.1% in 2017 compared with 4.5% in 2016.
Unused credit lines
BASF SE had committed and unused credit lines with variable interest rates amounting to €6,000 million both as of December 31, 2017 and as of December 31, 2016.

Other liabilities
The increase in current other liabilities was primarily due to cash deposits from group companies accounted for using the equity method, which are reported under miscellaneous liabilities. Current derivatives with negative fair values decreased due to negative fair market values arising from foreign currency hedging. By contrast, the noncurrent negative fair values increased. This related primarily to higher negative fair values from hedging using combined interest and cross-currency swaps involving USD, GBP and HKD bonds.

Liabilities to credit institutions were secured primarily with registered land charges. The increase in secured other liabilities compared with December 31, 2016, is primarily attributable to higher collateral for derivative instruments with negative fair values. As in the previous year, there were no secured contingent liabilities in 2017.
