PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To prospectus dated January 3, 2006)

KfW, Frankfurt/Main, Federal Republic of Germany

C$300,000,000

4.70% Global Notes due 2037
Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau, also known as KfW, will pay interest on the notes in two equal, semi-annual
installments in arrears on June 2 and December 2, commencing on June 2, 2006. The first interest payment,
however, will be for interest accrued from and including March 29, 2006 to, but excluding, June 2, 2006. The
notes will mature on June 2, 2037. The notes are not redeemable at any time prior to maturity.
The notes will be represented by one or more permanent global certificates, initially kept in custody by Deutsche
Bank Trust Company Americas, known as DBTCA, that will not be exchangeable for definitive notes except in
the very limited circumstances described in this prospectus supplement.
KfW will make payments with respect to the notes without deduction of withholding taxes, unless otherwise
required by law. There will be no "gross-up" provision requiring additional payments to be made in respect of the
notes in the event of the imposition of a tax deduction or withholding.
Pursuant to the Law Concerning the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau, the notes will benefit from a statutory
guarantee of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Purchasers of the notes must make payment in Canadian dollars. The managers may arrange for U.S. purchasers
to pay for the notes in U.S. dollars. KfW will pay the principal of and interest on the notes in Canadian dollars.
However, if you elect to hold notes through DTC, you will receive the principal of and interest on the notes in U.
S. dollars unless you elect to receive such payments in Canadian dollars.
For information on exchange risks, see ``Information on Currency Conversion and Foreign Exchange
Exposure'' and ``Description of the Notes'' herein.
The notes are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. Any action or other legal

Global Notes Prospectus Supplement to the Prospectus dated January 3, 2006
This prospectus supplement should be read together with the accompanying prospectus dated January 3, 2006,
and the documents incorporated herein by reference, which contain information regarding KfW, the Federal
Republic of Germany and other matters, including a description of certain terms of the notes offered hereby. See
"Incorporation by Reference" below. Further information concerning KfW and the notes offered hereby may be
found in the registration statement (Registration Statement No. 333-121363/121363-01) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933 and relating to our debt securities
described in the prospectus.

This prospectus supplement, together with the accompanying prospectus dated January 3, 2006 and the
documents incorporated herein by reference, fulfills the requirements for a simplified prospectus pursuant to
Chapter 2 of Part III of the Luxembourg Prospectus Act. It does not constitute a prospectus pursuant to Part II of
the Luxemburg Prospectus Act transforming Directive 2003/71/EC (the "Prospectus Directive") into law in
Luxemburg. Accordingly, this prospectus supplement, together with the accompanying prospectus dated January
3, 2006 and the documents incorporated herein by reference, does not purport to meet the format and the
disclosure requirements of the Prospectus Directive and Commission Regulation (EC) No 809/2004
implementing the Prospectus Directive, and it has not been, and will not be, submitted for approval to any
competent authority within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive. The notes issued pursuant to this prospectus
supplement will therefore not qualify for the benefit of the single European passport pursuant to the Prospectus
Directive.

The Luxembourg Stock Exchange takes no responsibility for the contents of this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus, makes no representations as to their accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaims
any liability for any loss arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus. KfW accepts full responsibility for the accuracy of the
information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and confirms, having

made all reasonable inquiries, that to the best of its knowledge and belief there are no other facts the omission of
which would make any statement herein or in the prospectus misleading in any material respect.

You should rely only on the information incorporated by reference or provided in this prospectus supplement or
the prospectus. We have not authorized anyone else to provide you with different information. We are not
making an offer of these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted. You should not assume
that the information contained in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is accurate as of
any date other than the date on the front of such documents or, with respect to information incorporated by
reference, as of date of such information.

In this prospectus supplement, references to "euro" or "" are to the single European currency adopted by certain
participating member countries of the European Union, including the Federal Republic of Germany, as of
January 1, 1999. References to "U.S. dollars" or "$" are to United States dollars. See "Exchange Rate
Information" for information regarding the rates of conversion of euro into U.S. dollars. References to "Canadian
dollars," "C$" or "CAD" are to Canadian dollars.
In this prospectus supplement, references to "we" or "us" are to KfW. References to "KfW Bankengruppe" or
"group" are to KfW and its consolidated subsidiaries.

In connection with this offering of notes, The Toronto-Dominion Bank or any person acting for it may
over-allot the notes (provided that the aggregate principal amount of notes allotted does not exceed 105
percent of the aggregate principal amount of the notes) or effect transactions with a view to supporting the
price of the notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance
that The Toronto-Dominion Bank or any person acting for it will undertake stabilization action. Any
stabilization action may begin at any time after the adequate public disclosure of the final terms of the
offer of the notes and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30
days after the closing date and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the notes.

Table of Contents
DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
The following description of the particular terms and conditions of the notes (the "conditions") offered hereby
(referred to herein as the "notes" and in the prospectus as the "securities") supplements, and to the extent
inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and provisions of the securities set forth in
the prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made. The description of the notes below (with the
exception of certain explanatory text designated by italics) is substantially the same as the legally binding
English text thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto. A copy of the form of conditions has been
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this
prospectus supplement and the prospectus are a part.
General Provisions
Principal Amount and Denomination. The notes will be issued in an aggregate principal amount of three hundred
million Canadian dollars (C$300,000,000), divided into 300 thousand notes in the principal amount of C$1,000
each which will rank equally among themselves.
Global Certificates--Form. The notes will be represented by one or more permanent global certificates without
interest coupons, which will be kept in custody by DBTCA, or any successor, as custodian for DTC until all our
obligations under the notes have been satisfied. The global certificates (as defined under "Clearing and Settlement
--Certification and Custody; Appointment of Registrar and Paying Agent") will be manually signed by two of
our authorized representatives and will each be manually authenticated by or on behalf of the registrar (as defined
under "Clearing and Settlement--Certification and Custody; Appointment of Registrar and Paying Agent").
According to the conditions, definitive certificates representing individual notes and interest coupons will not be
issued. Definitive certificates representing individual notes may however be issued in the very limited
circumstances described under "Clearing and Settlement--The Clearing Systems--DTC."
Transfers. Transfers will be made by book-entry only as described in further detail under "Clearing and
Settlement--Transfers."
Status
The notes will constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of KfW and will rank equally with all of our
other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, but subject to any applicable mandatory
statutory exceptions.
Interest
Interest Rate and Due Dates. The notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.70% per year as from March 29, 2006.
The notes will cease to bear interest upon the end of the day preceding the day on which they become due for
redemption. Interest is payable in two equal, semi-annual installments in arrears on June 2 and December 2. The
first interest payment, however, will be made on June 2, 2006 for the period commencing on March 29, 2006

(inclusive) and ending on June 2, 2006 (exclusive). The interest amount for this period shall total C$2,510,958.90
for the aggregate principal amount of C$300,000,000.
Late Payment. Should we fail to repay the notes on the due date therefor, interest on the notes shall, subject to the
provisions with respect to business days (as defined under "--Payments--Business Days"), continue to accrue
beyond the due date until actual repayment of the notes at the default rate of interest established by law. Under
German law, the default rate is five percentage points above the basic rate of interest announced by the German
Federal Bank immediately after January 1 and July 1 in each year. In January 2006, the German Federal Bank
announced a base rate of 1.37% per annum, making the default rate at that time 6.37%.
Accrued Interest. Whenever it is necessary to compute any amount of accrued interest in respect of the notes for a
period of less than one full year, other than with respect to regular semi-annual interest payments, such
