Provisions schedule
Explanation:
Not a standard item but "spiegel" quite often translates as a "schedule". Other options are "changes in ...." "Statement of changes in ...", or something similar. I'm sure Robin B. will weigh in with a better response. :-)

disagree  Alison Schwitzgebel: no, a Rückstellung is never a reserve - that's a Rücklage and it means something completely different.

agree  RobinB: Nothing to better your suggestion, Ted: I think that's as good a translation as we'll get for what is merely a small table showing changes in and scheduled maturities of provisions. Possible alternative "maturity structure of provisions".
