Swedbank once again delivers a strong result supported by timing effects. We create value for our customers and shareholders in good times and bad.

The global economy remains weak. Falling interest rates are slowly starting to have a positive effect on economic activity, but regional differences are growing while the geopolitical situation has deteriorated. During the quarter, the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank and the Riksbank continued to cut policy rates.

In Lithuania economic activity is strong, while developments in Estonia, Latvia and Sweden are more restrained. Strong public finances, rising real wages, innovative companies and lower interest rates mean that our home markets are expected to be among the fastest growing in Europe in 2025.

Swedbank's result for the quarter amounted to SEK 8 465m. For the full-year 2024, profit totalled SEK 34 866m. The return on equity was 15.8 per cent for the quarter and 17.1 per cent for the full-year. Income decreased during the quarter but rose for the full-year. Costs developed according to plan. Thanks to strict cost control, the cost/income ratio for the full-year was 0.34. Credit quality is solid.

Swedbank's Board of Directors has changed the Dividend Policy to between 60 and 70 per cent of the annual profit. This implies that Swedbank has the possibility to both develop the bank for our customers and to increase lending as the business environment changes, while securing a strong capital position. The Board of Directors therefore intends to propose a dividend for 2024 of 21 kronor and 70 öre per share, corresponding to 70 per cent of the profit, at the Annual General Meeting.

Swedbank is the leader in mortgage lending in all four home markets and we are maintaining our position in the face of fierce competition. In Sweden, lending was stable in 2024. In Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, lending increased in 2024, driven by our green mortgage loans.

Deposit volumes were stable in Sweden in 2024 and increased in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Savings growth remains strong with significant inflows to our Robur funds in 2024. In Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, the development in savings has been very good. We are proud to contribute to a strong savings culture in all of our home markets.

Inflows to the pension and insurance businesses were also strong in 2024. Premium and Private Banking has reached a new milestone: In 2024, more than 10 000 customers signed up for our service concepts.

In Sweden, demand for corporate loans remains muted and Swedbank maintained its market share during the year in a declining bank lending market. The combination of local presence and national expertise remains in focus for our corporate business.

Corporate lending increased in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania for the full-year and also in the quarter. We are the leading corporate bank in Estonia and Lithuania. Our ambition is to also become the leader in Latvia, but we will be more selective going forward due to the new bank tax.

Lending to sustainable investments is growing and Swedbank's Sustainable Asset Register exceeded SEK 120 billion at year-end, after having risen by more then 70 per cent in 2024. In 2024, 36 per cent of the bonds Swedbank arranged were sustainable bonds.

Our customer promise is an easier financial life. In 2024, we accelerated the investments in our advisory platform, omni channel communication platform and in an improved end-to-end lending process. Customer behaviour is constantly changing and we see that our customers increasingly want to interact digitally and by phone. We are therefore reallocating resources to advisory meetings in these channels to increase our availability and speed.

Fraud is a serious societal problem and we are continuing to develop more secure services. In 2024, we implemented a number of important measures. For example, we launched Savings Account Plus with delayed withdrawals and we introduced a time delay in connection with raising the daily transfer limits.

Swedbank is strongly engaged in the community. In 2024, we educated more than 100 000 children and young adults in personal finances in Sweden.

At Swedbank's Investor Day in 2022, the road to a sustainable return on equity of at least 15 per cent was formulated, which we have delivered on. We look forward to presenting an updated strategic plan for the coming years at a new Investor Day before the summer.

Our customers' future is our focus.

Result fourth quarter 2024 compared to third quarter 2024

Swedbank's profit increased to SEK 8 465m (9 379). Income, the tax expense and credit impairments decreased, while expenses rose on a seasonal basis. Impairments of intangible assets contributed negatively to profit. Foreign exchange effects positively impacted profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees by SEK 22m.

The return on equity was 15.8 per cent (18.4) and the cost/income ratio was 0.36 (0.31).

Income decreased to SEK 18 634m (19 146). Foreign exchange effects positively impacted income by SEK 38m.

Net interest income was stable at SEK 12 274m (12 229). Lower costs for market funding and increased mortgage margins contributed positively, offset by lower income from central bank investments and lower deposit margins.

Net commission income was unchanged at SEK 4 285m (4 286). Income increased mainly in asset management, due to market gains and income related to Swedbank's commitment as a market maker for covered bonds. This was offset by lower income from the card business.

Net gains and losses on financial items decreased to SEK 923m (1 170). The change was mainly related to positive revaluation effects of interest rate derivatives in Group Treasury in the previous quarter.

Other income decreased to SEK 1 152m (1 461). The change was primarily due to revaluation effects in the insurance business as well as lower results from partlyowned companies, of which half is related to a one-off effect of SEK 120m linked to a revision to Entercard's credit impairment model in Sweden in the previous quarter.

Expenses increased to SEK 6 740m (5 986) mainly due to seasonality. The item other expenses was higher primarily as a result of one-off effects in the previous quarter, while IT and consulting expenses rose on a seasonal basis. The increase in staff costs was mainly due to higher pension expenses during the quarter and a seasonal cost decline in the previous quarter. Foreign exchange effects increased expenses by SEK 16m.

Impairments of intangible assets amounted to SEK 757m (0) and is related to IT investments that will no longer be used. The bank follows a structured and continuous process for valuing intangible assets in accordance with the accounting rules. The bank has a high development rate, and after deploying new solutions, previous systems are phased out, which may lead to write-downs of capitalised software with no remaining useful life.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK -394m (271), corresponding to -0.08 per cent (0.06). The change included rating and stage migrations of SEK 353m (428), while post-model adjustments decreased by SEK 146m (-84). Updated macroeconomic scenarios resulted in a decrease of SEK 212m (-95) and individually assessed loans in a decrease of SEK 56m (337).

Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 858m (1 012).

The income tax expense amounted to SEK 2 208m (2 497) and corresponded to an effective tax rate of 20.7 per cent (21.0). The lower effective tax rate in the quarter was mainly due to a higher valuation of deferred tax assets in Lithuania that resulted from a higher tax rate and revised tax rules for the Lithuanian insurance business.

Result January-December 2024 compared to January-December 2023

Swedbank's profit increased to SEK 34 866m (34 130) as a result of higher income and lower credit impairments, partly offset by higher expenses. Expenses rose primarily due to increased staff costs and IT expenses. Bank taxes in the Baltic countries negatively impacted profit, as did impairments of intangible assets. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees by SEK 102m.

The return on equity was 17.1 per cent (18.3) and the cost income ratio was 0.34 (0.33).

1) Income statement excluding expenses for the administrative fines.

Income increased to SEK 74 104m (73 057) mainly due to higher net commission income. Net gains and losses on financial items and other income also contributed, while net interest income fell. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted profit by SEK 144m.

Net interest income amounted to SEK 49 267m (50 933). Net interest income was negatively impacted by falling interest rates, partly offset by lower funding costs.

Net commission income increased by 11 per cent to SEK 16 716m (15 088). The rise was primarily related to asset management, which benefitted from the positive market development.

Net gains and losses on financial items increased by 25 per cent to SEK 3 687m (2 938) mainly due to revaluation effects within Group Treasury as well as Corporates and Institutions.

Other income increased by 8 per cent to SEK 4 435m (4 098). The increase was primarily related to revaluation effects within the insurance business as well as increased sales of IT and administrative services.

Expenses increased by 5 per cent to SEK 25 376m (24 100). The increase was mainly driven by higher staff costs related to higher salaries and more employees on average, as well as increased IT expenses.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK -268m (1 674), corresponding to -0.01 per cent (0.09). The change compared to the previous year was primarily due to improved macroeconomic scenarios.

Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 4 019m (3 574). The increase was mainly related to the introduction of temporary bank taxes in Lithuania and Latvia.

The income tax expense amounted to SEK 9 320m (9 492), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 21.1 per cent (21.8). The lower effective tax rate in 2024 was primarily because the previous year's tax expense included an additional one-off deferred tax related to an extra dividend from the Estonian subsidiary Swedbank AS. There is no corresponding tax expense for 2024.

Swedbank mainly conducts business in the product areas of lending, deposits, fund savings and life insurance, and payments.

The total number of transactions acquired in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark increased by 28 million, equivalent to a rise of 4 per cent, while total card transactions acquired in the Baltic countries rose by 9 per cent.

Acquired transaction volumes in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark totalled SEK 234bn, corresponding to an increase of 1 per cent compared to the same period in 2023. In the Baltic countries, transaction volumes rose by 7 per cent to SEK 39bn.

The total number of Swedbank cards in issue at the end of the quarter was 8.5 million, in line with the end of the previous quarter.

The number of purchases in Sweden with Swedbank cards increased by 4 per cent during the quarter compared to the same quarter in 2023. A total of 374 million card purchases were made. In the Baltic countries, the number of card purchases rose by 9 per cent in the same period and totalled 261 million purchases during the quarter.

In Sweden, a total of 211 million domestic payments were made during the quarter, an increase of 4 per cent compared to the same period in 2023. Swedbank's market share of payments executed via Bankgirot was 33 per cent. In the Baltic countries, 138 million domestic payments were processed, an increase of 6 per cent compared to the same period in 2023.

The number of international payments in Sweden increased by 5 per cent compared to the same quarter in 2023 and amounted to 1.9 million. In the Baltic countries, international payments rose by 18 per cent to 9 million, including transactions between the Baltic countries. The increase was partly driven by cheaper payment options and smaller amounts. The total transaction volume increased by 3 percent during the corresponding period.

The credit quality of Swedbank's lending is solid and credit impairments were low despite geopolitical and economic uncertainty. Total credit impairment provisions amounted to SEK 7 257m (7 907), of which SEK 720m (858) was post-model adjustments.

For mortgages in Sweden, forborne loans continued to increase but at a slower rate than the previous quarter. Loans with late payments also increased slightly.

The total share of loans in stage 2, gross, amounted to 9.1 per cent (9.4). For personal loans, the corresponding share was 6.7 per cent (7.1) and for corporate loans it was 14.2 per cent (14.4).

The share of loans in stage 3, gross, was 0.65 per cent (0.60).

During the quarter, central banks in Sweden, Europe and the U.S. continued to cut their policy rates. Despite this, long-term bond yields have risen in Sweden and the U.S. In the U.S., the reason is a combination of consistently strong macroeconomic data and the outcome of the U.S. election. In Europe, macroeconomic data have instead been weaker than expected, which when combined with political uncertainty in both Germany and France, has led to lower long-term bond yields and higher credit spreads. This contributed to a slight increase in the credit spreads for the SEK covered bonds issued in the fourth quarter.

Swedbank remained active in the funding markets. During the quarter, issuance primarily consisted of covered bonds in SEK as well as a green senior nonpreferred bond in euro. In total for the full-year, Swedbank issued SEK 145bn in long-term debt instruments, including SEK 32bn in the fourth quarter. As of 31 December, Swedbank's outstanding short-term funding in issue amounted to SEK 266bn (384).

The funding plan for 2025 is largely in line with 2024 and during the year long-term funding of SEK 115bn matures. One difference is that the bank now has the desired buffers above the requirements of the resolution regulation and therefore can focus on maintaining these levels going forward. The need for financing is affected by the current liquidity situation, future maturities and changes in deposit and lending volumes, and therefore is adjusted over the course of the year. For more information on funding and liquidity, see notes 16-18 and pages 57–69 of the Factbook.

The bank works continuously with operational risks with a special focus on areas where the risks are considered to be the highest. Threats to information security, including cybersecurity risks and external fraud risk, are growing in line with digitalisation, which requires increased security measures for both Swedbank and our customers. The bank has strengthened its digital operational resilience frameworks and processes to ensure the robustness of the Group's critical and key functions.

The risk of fraud from organised crime persists. Swedbank has continued to invest to protect customers against fraud. For example, Swedbank has implemented a security portal that enables private customers to manage their own security settings based on their preferences and transaction history, and also introduced Savings Account Plus, which includes delayed withdrawals to protect customers against unintended transactions.

Capital ratio and capital requirement

The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio was 19.8 per cent (20.4) at the end of the quarter. The total CET1 capital requirement, including Pillar 2 guidance, was 15.2 per cent (15.1) of the Risk Exposure Amount (REA), which resulted in a CET1 capital buffer of 4.6 per cent (5.2). CET1 capital decreased to SEK 173bn (175) and was mainly affected by the changed dividend policy to between 60 and 70 per cent of the group's profit.

Change in Common Equity Tier 1 capital

(Refers to Swedbank consolidated situation)

Risk Exposure Amount (REA)

REA increased to SEK 872bn (858) in the fourth quarter.

REA for credit risks increased by SEK 6bn mainly due to increased lending in the Baltic countries as well as foreign exchange effects. This was offset by a decrease in counterparty risk primarily due to a decrease in corporate derivatives.

The annual update for operational risk increased REA by SEK 16bn due to the increase in the moving three-year average of total income compared to 2023.

REA for market risk decreased by SEK 4bn mainly due to smaller covered bond positions in Swedish institutions.

Change in REA

(Refers to Swedbank consolidated situation)

The leverage ratio was 6.8 per cent (6.4) and therefore exceeds the leverage ratio requirement including Pillar 2 guidance of 3.5 per cent.

Capital and resolution regulations

On account of the guidelines from the European Banking Authority, as well as the forthcoming implementation of CRR 3, Swedbank is applying for approval of new internal risk classification (IRB) models. The bank estimates that the review process will continue with approvals being granted in 2025 and 2026.

Swedbank previously decided on an Article 3 add-on corresponding to the bank's estimate of the remaining impact on REA after the introduction of the remaining IRB models. This add-on has been reduced to SEK 7bn in line with the phase-in that has already occurred. The Swedish FSA has also introduced a temporary add-on of 1 per cent in P2R related to the ongoing review of the models.

The revised Capital Requirements Regulation CRR 3 took effect on 1 January 2025 with a phase-in period through 2032. The revisions include changes to the standardised approaches and internal models used to calculate capital requirements for credit, market and operational risk, as well as an output floor for internal models. The implementation of the requirements for market risk has been postponed by one year and they take effect in 2026. The revised CRR 3 is expected to result in a limited increase in REA, based on revised coefficients for operational risk.

U.S. authorities continue to investigate Swedbank's historical anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing work and historical information disclosures. The investigations, which are being conducted by the Department of Justice (DoJ), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Financial Services in New York (DFS), are continuing and the bank is holding individual discussions with the authorities through its U.S. legal advisors. The investigations are at different stages and the bank cannot at this time determine any financial consequences or when the investigations will be completed.

On 17 October 2024, it was announced that Jon Lidefelt has been appointed the Chief Financial Officer of Swedbank. He was most recently head of the business area Baltic Banking and has therefore been a member of the Group Executive Committee. He assumed his new role on 1 November 2024. Olof Sundblad has been appointed acting head of Baltic Banking and will become a member of the Group Executive Committee.

Swedbank Robur was awarded "Best Regional Leader Europe" in the category Fund companies with 50–99 fund managers at Citywire's Gender Diversity Awards 2024. The awards are based on data from Citywire's Alpha Female Report. The jury's evaluation included questions about the companies' overall work on gender equality and how they integrate gender diversity considerations into their investment decisions.

On December 20, 2024, the Swedish Pensions Agency filed a lawsuit with the Stockholm District Court with a claim. The claim relates to the bank's role as custodian for the fund Optimus High Yield 2012-2015. Swedbank disputes the Swedish Pensions Agency's claim and has not made any provisions in response to the lawsuit.

On 8 January 2025, it was announced that Jenny Garneij has been appointed the new Head of HR and Facility Management at Swedbank and thereby becomes a member of the Group Executive Committee. She will replace the current manager, Carina Strand, by the beginning of July 2025 at the latest.

Customer activity related to mortgages increased. To process mortgage applications more efficiently, automated home appraisals were launched. Customers can also upload mortgage-related documentation in connection with digital applications. During the quarter, a Farm Owners unit was launched to serve customers who own or purchase a farm to live in.

The fight against fraud continues. For convenient and secure e-commerce, Click-to-Pay means that card information is protected and does not have to be filled in with each payment. The Swedish banks' common campaign, "Become Scamaware", was relaunched.

Swedbank continues to focus on financial health. More than half of our customers now have access to the new advisory platform, which provides ongoing and personalised advice through all channels. Customers can also take out accident insurance and pregnancy insurance in the app and internet bank.

Further steps were taken towards to combine its strong local presence with ensuring nationwide availability. An increasing number of customers want to meet us

digitally and by phone. Therefore, resources are reallocated to advisory meetings in those channels. This work will continue in 2025.

Profit decreased during the quarter. Net interest income fell mainly due to lower deposit margins. Other income decreased mainly on account of a one-off effect in Entercard in the previous quarter.

Mortgage volume in Swedish Banking decreased by SEK 5bn, partly explained by transfers of customer between business areas. Corporate lending decreased by SEK 1bn.

Deposit volumes increased by SEK 1bn. Household deposits decreased by SEK 1bn and corporate deposits increased by SEK 2bn.

Net commission income was stable. Higher asset management income was offset by lower card income.

Expenses rose slightly. Lower staff costs were offset by increased other expenses. Credit impairments amounted to SEK -6m (116), The impact from updated macroeconomic scenarios were partly offset by negative rating and stage migrations.

Lending rose by 3 per cent (EUR) and was related to both consumer and corporate lending. Deposits increased by 5 per cent (EUR).

Net commission income decreased by 2 per cent (EUR). Other income was 41 per cent (EUR) lower due to positive valuation effects in the previous quarter.

Business activity and demand for loans were muted during the quarter. Companies in the real estate sector continued to turn to the capital market. Lending volumes fell slightly, largely driven by lower utilisation of credit facilities. Deposit volumes decreased due to lower short-term deposits mainly from international funds. Deposits from institutional clients also decreased, driven by the normal variation in connection with year-end.

Uncertainty surrounding the U.S. election and geopolitical turmoil dominated the quarter and resulted in large fluctuations in European government bonds, in contrast with a calmer Swedish market. The Swedish credit market was relatively stable with inflows to credit funds that continued to keep demand intact. During the quarter, 45 per cent of all bonds that Swedbank arranged were classified as sustainable. The corresponding figure for the full-year was 36 per cent, which was the highest percentage so far.

Swedbank assisted Sveafastigheter with its IPO and acted as Joint Global Coordinator in ITAB's capital

raising process in connection with its acquisition of HMY. Activity in the foreign exchange market remained high.

In Prospera's annual survey of institutional clients, Swedbank for the first time was ranked number one for active support connected to sustainability.

Net interest income decreased during the quarter primarily due to lower deposit margins.

Net commission income was stable. Increased income from asset management was offset by lower income from capital market-related transactions.

Net gains and losses on financial items increased mainly driven by positive revaluation effects on derivatives.

Expenses related to staff, IT and consulting services rose on a seasonal basis. Credit impairments amounted to SEK -265m (125). Decreased post-model adjustments, updated macroeconomic scenarios and changes in exposures were partly offset by negative rating and stage migrations.

During the quarter, the number of concept customers increased, with new corporate customers showing the highest percentage growth. The positive trend is a result of high-quality advisory services as well as a commitment to building long-term customer relationships.

During the quarter, several events were arranged to create value and strengthen relationships with existing and new customers. Among them, an Affordable Art Fair and an event focused on the U.S. election were especially popular.

The bank's premium concept customers can now book digital or in-person advisory meetings via new features in the app and the internet bank.

Asset management services generated stable growth in the form of both new volumes and returns. A new stock market unit within Premium and Private Banking complements active trading and advisory management services, and enables Private Banking customers who are interested in securities to receive personalised service and advice by phone on their holdings.

Swedbank continues to see strong growth in occupational pensions. During the quarter, even more companies made themselves more attractive to employees by advising on and setting up pension plans. During the period, an occupational pension portal was launched where employees with employer-based pension plans receive access to necessary information about their occupational pension solutions.

Despite continued tough competition in the mortgage market, Premium and Private Banking reported a positive net flow during the quarter. Lending and deposit volumes both increased.

Profit during the quarter strengthened due to increased income. Lower credit impairments also contributed.

The increased income came from improved net interest income from lending, in turn driven by increased volumes and improved mortgage lending margins. Transfers of customers from Swedish Banking positively impacted net interest income. Net commission income was stable.

Expenses fell slightly. Credit impairments amounted to SEK -20m (2) and were explained primarily by updated macroeconomic scenarios.

1) Comparative figures have been restated due to the reorganisation during the first quarter of 2024. For more information, see Note 4. 2) Net interest income and net gains and losses on financial items mainly stem from Group Treasury. Other income mainly refers to income from the savings banks. Expenses mainly relate to Group Products & Advice and Group Staffs and are allocated to a large extent.

3) Other income includes the items Net insurance, Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures and Other income from the Group income statement.

During the quarter, profit decreased to SEK -407m (215).

Net interest income increased by SEK 454m primarily driven by falling short-term interest rates, which led to lower compensation from Group Treasury on deposits from the business areas as well as lower funding costs.

Net gains and losses on financial items within Group Treasury fell by SEK 238m mainly related to positive

revaluation effects on interest rate derivatives and positive effects from bond repurchases in Q3.

Expenses increased primarily driven by higher IT, staff and consulting expenses.

Impairments of intangible assets amounted to SEK 757m (0) and related to IT investments that will no longer be used.

For the period January – December 2024 a gain after tax of SEK 1 080m (-667) was recognised in other comprehensive income, relating to remeasurements of defined benefit pension plans. As per 30 December 2024 the discount rate used to calculate the closing pension obligation was 3.86 per cent, compared with 3.69 per cent per 31 December 2023. The inflation assumption was 1.72 per cent compared with 1.57 per cent per 31 December 2023. The fair value of plan assets increased during 2024 by SEK 988 m. In total, at 30 December 2024 the fair value of plan assets exceeded the obligation for funded defined benefit pension plans by SEK 3 611 m, therefore the funded plans are presented as an asset.

For January – December 2024 an exchange rate difference of SEK 2 259m (-290) was recognised for the Group's foreign net investments in subsidiaries. The gain related to subsidiaries mainly arose because the Swedish krona weakened against the euro during the period. In addition, an exchange rate difference of SEK 5m (-41) for the Group's foreign net investments in associates and joint ventures is included in Share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures. The total gain of SEK 2 264m is not taxable. Most of the Group's foreign net investments are hedged against currency risk resulting in a loss after tax of SEK -1 472m (267) for the hedging instruments.

2024

During the year Swedbank AB acquired all the shares in the Estonian company Paywerk AS for SEK 49m.

Contributions were also provided to the associated companies Getswish AB, Finansiell ID-teknik BID AB and Svenska e-fakturabolaget AB of SEK 90m, 62m and 16m respectively. Swedbank also acquired additional shares in the joint venture P27 Nordic Payments Platform AB of SEK 23m. Thereby, the ownership amounts to 20.83 per cent.

2023

During 2023 contributions were provided to the joint ventures P27 Nordic Payments Platform AB, Invidem AB and Tibern AB of SEK 48m, 3m and 2m respectively.

The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the recommendations and statements of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board, the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the directives of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (SFSA).

The Parent Company report has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the directives of the SFSA and recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board.

The accounting policies applied in the interim report conform to those applied in the Annual and Sustainability Report for 2023, which was prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and interpretations thereof.

The financial statements are presented in Swedish kronor and all figures are rounded to millions of kronor (SEKm) unless otherwise indicated. No adjustments for rounding are made, therefore summation differences may occur.

In order to provide a better overview of the financial statements, items within these have been aggregated from the first quarter 2024.

Amended regulations that are applicable from 1 January 2024 did not have a significant impact on the Group's financial position, results, cash flows or disclosures.

Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements (IFRS 18)

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has published IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements, which is not yet applied by Swedbank.

IFRS 18 was issued in April 2024. The standard will be effective from January 1, 2027, and has not yet been adopted by the European Union. The new standard replaces IAS 1 and introduces new requirements primarily for the presentation of financial statements and disclosures about certain performance measures.

Impact on the Group's financial statements is currently being assessed.

Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (IFRS 9 and IFRS 7)

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has published amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments, IFRS 9 and IFRS 7.

The amendments mainly provide guidance on how to assess the contractual cash flows of a financial asset that include contingent features and related disclosure requirements.

The amendments were issued in May 2024 and will be effective from January 1, 2026. They have not yet been adopted by the European Union.

Impact on the Group's financial statements is currently being assessed.

Presentation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the executive management to make judgments and estimates that affect the recognised amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date as well as the recognised income and expenses during the reporting period. The executive management continuously evaluates these judgments and estimates, including assessing control over investment funds, the fair value of financial instruments, provisions for credit impairment, impairment testing of goodwill, provisions and contingent liabilities, defined

benefit pension provisions, insurance contracts and deferred taxes.

Post-model expert credit adjustments to the credit impairment provisions continue to be necessary, given the geopolitical and economic uncertainties. Further information is provided in Note 10.

Beyond this, there have been no significant changes to the basis upon which the critical accounting judgments and estimates have been determined compared with 31 December 2023.

No significant changes to the Group structure occurred during the fourth quarter 2024.

The operating segment report is based on Swedbank's accounting policies, organisation and management accounts. Market-based transfer prices are applied between operating segments, while all expenses for Group functions and Group staffs are transfer priced at cost to the operating segments. Cross-border transfer pricing is applied according to OECD transfer pricing guidelines.

The Group's equity attributable to shareholders is allocated to each operating segment based on capital adequacy rules and estimated capital requirements based on the bank's Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP).

The return on allocated equity for the operating segments is calculated based on profit for the period attributable to the shareholders for the operating segment, in relation to average monthly allocated equity for the operating segment. For periods shorter than one year the key ratio is annualised.

From the first quarter 2024, the operation within Premium and Private Banking is reported as a separate business segment. The operation was previously reported within Swedish Banking. In connection with the change the corporate customers, which are handled by advisors, have been moved to Corporates and Institutions. The comparative figures have been restated. In addition to this, there have been a few minor transfers of support functions between the segments and Group Functions and Other.

Provisions for individually assessed loans in stage 3 decreased by SEK 56m during the fourth quarter 2024.

During the fourth quarter the write offs amounted to SEK 394m, of which SEK 313m referred to corporates that previously have been individually provisioned. The reversed provisions related to those loans amounted to SEK 396m.

During the second quarter 2024 a portfolio of loans to private persons was disposed. The loans were either classified in stage 3 or were previously written off. The disposal of the loans in stage 3 resulted in write offs amounting to SEK 505m together with reversals of credit impairment provisions amounting to SEK 496m. The disposal of loans previously written off resulted in recoveries amounting to SEK 145m.

Calculation of credit impairment provisions

The measurement of expected credit losses is described in Note G3.1 Credit risk on pages 86-91 of the 2023 Annual and Sustainability Report.

Measurement of 12-month and lifetime expected credit losses

High interest rates and elevated cost levels, combined with geopolitical risks increasing the risks of supply

chain disruptions, continue to weigh on private persons and companies, resulting in an uncertainty regarding the impact on credit risk. As the quantitative risk models do not yet reflect all potential deteriorations in credit quality, post-model adjustments have been made to capture potential future rating and stage migrations.

Post-model expert credit adjustments to increase the credit impairment provisions continue to be deemed necessary and amounted to SEK 720m (SEK 858m at 30 September 2024, SEK 1 324m at 31 December 2023) and are allocated as SEK 336m in stage 1 and SEK 383m in stage 2 (SEK 476m in stage 1, SEK 382m in stage 2 at 30 September 2024). Customers and industries are reviewed and analysed considering the current situation, particularly in more vulnerable sectors. During the fourth quarter, the largest releases of postmodel expert credit adjustments were in Property management sector due to reassessed risk structure. The most significant post-model adjustments at 31 December 2024 were in the Manufacturing, Property management and Agriculture, forestry, fishing sectors.

The tables below show the quantitative thresholds used by the Group for assessing a significant increase in credit risk, namely:

  • Changes in the 12-month PD and internal risk rating grades, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated before 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a downgrade by 1 grade from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk. Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, a downgrade by 5 to 8 grades from initial recognition is considered significant. Internal risk ratings are assigned according to the risk management framework outlined in Note G3 Risks in the 2023 Annual and Sustainability Report.
  • Changes in the lifetime PD, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated on or after 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a 50 per cent increase in the lifetime PD from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk.

Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, an increase of 200-300 per cent from initial recognition is considered significant except for Swedish mortgages where an absolute 12-month PD threshold is also applied.

These limits reflect a lower sensitivity to change in the low-risk end of the risk scale and a higher sensitivity to change in the high-risk end of the scale. The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis on how credit impairment provisions would change if thresholds applied were increased or decreased. A lower threshold would increase the number of loans that have migrated from Stage 1 to Stage 2 and also increase the estimated credit impairment provisions. A higher threshold would have the opposite effect.

The tables below disclose the impacts of this sensitivity analysis on the credit impairment provisions. Positive amounts represent higher credit impairment provisions that would be recognised.

Incorporation of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios

The Swedbank Economic Outlook was published on 12 November 2024 and the baseline scenario was updated by Swedbank Macro Research as of 9 December 2024. The baseline scenario, with an assigned probability weight of 66.6 per cent, is aligned with the published outlook and incorporates updated

observed outcome and data points. The alternative scenarios are aligned with the updated baseline scenario, with probability weights of 16.7 per cent assigned to both the upside and downside scenario. The table below sets out the key assumptions of the scenarios at 31 December 2024.

1) Forecasted 2024 values, as the actual official numbers were not published when the scenarios were set.

The global economy is expected to remain divergent in terms of activity. In the euro area, economic activity remains weak, but will pick up next year as purchasing power improves and rates are lowered. Growth in the United States will moderate, but the US will remain the G7's top-performing economy. There is no turnaround in sight for the Chinese economy, which is expected to grow more modestly in the years ahead.

The US is expected to introduce import tariffs of 60 per cent from China and 10 per cent from other countries as from July 2025. We assume a proportionate retaliation, but no further escalation. However, the uncertainties related to trade development going forward are substantial, and should a trade war materialise, it could exacerbate economic outcomes for all involved parties.

The Swedish economy has remained weak, and it appears that the recovery will be delayed a while longer. Further easing of monetary policy and significantly higher real disposable income growth for households will support a recovery in 2025, however. GDP is expected to grow by 2.3 per cent in 2025 and close to 3 per cent in 2026.

The Baltic economies have been on diverging paths in recent years. Lithuanian GDP growth has accelerated, while the performance of the Latvian and Estonian economies has been weaker. Growth is expected to pick up going forward, but in Estonia, real purchasing power growth is likely to remain weaker than in Latvia and Lithuania due to increasing taxes and because inflation remains elevated.

Sensitivity

The table below shows the credit impairment provisions that would result from the negative and positive scenarios, which are considered reasonably possible, being assigned a probability weight of 100 per cent. Post-model expert credit adjustments are assumed to be constant in the results.

Swedish risk tax on credit institutions is levied at 0.06 percent of the credit institution's total adjusted debt at the beginning of the financial year.

The Lithuanian solidarity contribution tax is temporary from May 2023 until year end 2025. The tax rate is 60 per cent and is applied to the part of the adjusted net interest income earned during the period which exceeds the average net interest income of four historical years by more than 50 per cent. In 2024, the four historical years are 2019-2022. In 2023, the corresponding historical years were 2018-2021.

The Latvian mortgage levy is temporary and is levied in year 2024. The tax amounts to 2 percent of the total Latvian mortgage amount as per 31 October 2023.

The determination of fair value, the valuation hierarchy and the valuation process for fair value measurements in Level 3 are described in the Annual and Sustainability Report 2023, note G47 Fair value of financial instruments.

The financial instruments are distributed in three levels depending on the degree of observable market data in the valuation and activity in the market.

  • Level 1: Unadjusted quoted price on an active market.
  • Level 2: Adjusted quoted price or valuation model with valuation parameters derived from an active market.
  • Level 3: Valuation model where significant valuation parameters are non-observable and based on internal assumptions.

The following tables present fair values of financial instruments recognised at fair value split between the three valuation hierarchy levels.

Financial instruments are transferred to or from level 3 depending on whether the internal assumptions have changed in significance to the valuation.

Level 3 mainly comprises strategic unlisted shares. These include holdings in VISA Inc. C shares that are subject to selling restrictions until June 2028 and under certain conditions may have to be returned. Liquid

quotes are not available for these shares, therefore the fair value is established with significant elements of Swedbank's own internal assumptions. During the year a conversion of Visa Inc C shares to A Shares was made. The carrying amount of the holdings in Visa Inc. C amounted as per 31 December 2024 to SEK 344m (SEK 534m 31 December 2023).

In the Group's insurance operations, fund units are held in which the customers have chosen to invest their insurance savings. The holdings are reported in the balance sheet as financial assets where the customers bear the investment risk and are normally measured at fair value according to level 1, because the units are traded in an active market. The Group's obligations to

insurance savers are reported as financial liabilities where the customers bear the investment risk because it is the customers who bear the entire market value change of the assets. The liabilities are normally measured at fair value according to level 2.

During the first quarter 2022, trading was closed in whole or in part in Russia and Eastern Europe targeted funds. Remaining unit holdings, only correlated to the Russia funds, and related liabilities to the insurance savers have been measured at fair value according to level 3 and been measured at value SEK 0m. During the year, unit holdings of SEK 129m in the Russia fund were sold.

Swedbank is cooperating with authorities in the United States who are conducting investigations into Swedbank's historic AML compliance and the Group's response thereto, as well as related issues involving the Group's anti-money laundering controls and certain individuals and entities who may at some time have been customers of the Group. Investigations by the Department of Justice (DoJ), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Financial Services (DFS) in New York are ongoing. In June 2023, Swedbank reached an agreement to remit SEK 37m related to violation of OFAC regulations.

The timing of the completion of the investigations is still unknown and the outcomes are still uncertain. It is therefore not possible to reliably estimate the amount of any potential settlement or fines, which could be material.

In February 2024, the Estonian Prosecutor's Office closed its investigation of suspected money laundering offences by Swedbank AS in 2014–2016. The criminal investigation originated from the Estonian FSA's previous investigation of Swedbank AS in 2019.

On 20 December 2024, the Swedish Pensions Agency filed a SEK 2 790m lawsuit against Swedbank in the Stockholm District Court for Swedbank's role as a custodian of the Optimus High Yield fund during the period 2012–2015. Swedbank contests the Swedish Pensions Agency's claim and has not allocated any provisions for the Swedish Pensions Agency's suit.

The tables below present recognised financial instruments that have been offset in the balance sheet under IAS 32 and those that are subject to legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements but do not qualify for offset. Such financial instruments relate to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, securities settlements, securities borrowing and lending transactions. Collateral amounts represent financial instruments or cash collateral received or pledged for transactions that are subject to

a legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements and which allow for the netting of obligations against the counterparty in the event of a default. Collateral amounts are limited to the amount of the related instruments presented in the balance sheet; therefore any over-collateralisation is not included. Amounts that are not offset in the balance sheet are presented as a reduction to the financial assets or liabilities in order to derive net asset and net liability exposure.

In the consolidated situation the Group's insurance companies are accounted for according to the equity method instead of full consolidation. Joint venture companies EnterCard Group AB, Invidem AB, P27 Nordic Payments Platform AB, Tibern AB and Svenska e-fakturabolaget AB consolidates by proportional method instead of accounted for with the equity method. Otherwise, the same principles for consolidations are applied as for the Group.

This note provides information on the internal capital assessment according to chapter 8, section 5 of the SFSA's regulation on prudential requirements and capital buffers (2014:12). The internal capital assessment is published in the interim report according to chapter 8, section 4 of the SFSA's regulation and general advice on annual reports from credit institutions and investment firms (2008:25).

A bank must identify, measure and manage the risks with which its activities are associated and have sufficient capital to cover these risks. The purpose of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) is to ensure that the bank is sufficiently capitalised to cover its risks and to conduct and develop its business activities. Swedbank applies its own models and processes to evaluate its capital need for all relevant risks. The models that serve as a basis for the internal capital assessment evaluate the need for economic capital over a one-year horizon at a 99.9 per cent confidence level for each type of risk. Diversification effects between various types of risks are not taken into account in the calculation of economic capital.

As a complement to the economic capital calculation, scenario-based simulations and stress tests are conducted at least once a year. The analyses provide an overview of the most important risks Swedbank is exposed to by quantifying their impact on the income statement and balance sheet as well as the own funds and risk-weighted assets. The purpose is to ensure efficient use of capital. This methodology serves as a basis of proactive risk and capital management.

As of 31 December 2024, the internal capital assessment for Swedbank's consolidated situation amounted to SEK 65.5bn (SEK 50.5bn as of 31 December 2023). Swedbank's internal capital assessment using its own models is not comparable with the estimated capital requirement that the SFSA releases quarterly and does not consider the SFSA riskweight floor for Swedish mortgages.

In addition to what is stated in this interim report, risk management and capital adequacy according to the Basel III framework are described in more detail in Swedbank's Annual and Sustainability Report 2023 as well as in Swedbank's yearly Risk Management and Capital Adequacy Report, available on http://www.swedbank.com.

Swedbank's earnings are affected by changes in the global marketplace over which it has no control, including macroeconomic factors such as GDP, asset prices and unemployment as well as changes in interest rates, equity prices and exchange rates.

Geopolitical situation

The geopolitical situation remains uncertain with continued instability in the Middle East, the ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine, and increasingly protectionist trade policies contributing to heightened financial risks. Although these factors have had a significant impact on the economy, Swedbank continue to have low to negligible direct exposures to counterparts in the warring countries and is assessed to have the ability to manage the indirect risks that may arise due to the heightened geopolitical uncertainty.

Economic outlook

Economic growth in the Nordic and Baltic regions is showing signs of recovery, and in Sweden, the economy is on the path to recovery after nearly three years of stagnation. Future trade policies and various geopolitical tensions may negatively impact growth.

Interest rate trends and monetary policy

Global inflation is decreasing, and several central banks, including the Riksbank and the European Central Bank (ECB) have begun lowering interest rates.

Challenges and risk in digitalisation

Swedbank continuously manages identified operational risks with specific focus on most significant risks. Information security threats, including cyber risk and external fraud risk are increasing in line with increased digitalization efforts, which requires new ways of protection for Swedbank and our customers. Swedbank has further strengthened its digital operational resilience framework and processes to safeguard resilience of Group's critical and Important functions.

The risk of fraud posed by organised crime remains elevated. Swedbank has continued to invest in fraud prevention capabilities. Swedbank has for example implemented a Security Portal for private customers, enabling the customers to manage their own security settings and set their daily and temporary transaction limits based on their own preference and transaction behaviour. Swedbank has also launched a savings account with three days delayed withdrawals, for customers that want extra protection against fraud.

Anti-money laundering and Counter terrorist financing

For risks related to the ongoing investigations of authorities in US related to historic anti-money laundering compliance and response related to antimoney laundering controls, please refer to Note 22 Assets pledged, contingent liabilities and commitments.

Tax

The tax area is complex and there can be a scope for different interpretations. Practices and interpretations of applicable laws can be changed, sometimes retroactively. In the event that the tax authorities and, where appropriate, the tax courts decide on a different interpretation than what Swedbank initially made, it could impact the Group's operations, results and financial position.

In addition to what is stated in this interim report, detailed descriptions are provided in Swedbank's 2023 Annual and Sustainability report and in the disclosures in the Risk Management and Capital Adequacy reports available at www.swedbank.com.

Swedbank prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU, as set out in Note 1. The interim report includes a number of alternative performance measures, which exclude certain items that management believes are not representative of the underlying/ongoing performance of the business. Therefore the alternative performance measures provide more comparative information between periods. Management believes that inclusion of these measures provides information to the readers that enable comparability between periods.

Measure and definition Purpose
Net investment margin before trading interest is deducted
Calculated as Net interest income before trading-related interest is
deducted, in relation to average total assets. The average is calculated using
month-end figures1, including the prior year end. The nearest IFRS measure is
Net interest income and can be reconciled in Note 5.
Considers all interest income and
interest expense, independent of
how it has been presented in the
income statement.
Allocated equity
Allocated equity is the operating segment's equity measure and is not
directly required by IFRS. The Group's equity attributable to shareholders is
allocated to each operating segment based on capital adequacy rules and
estimated capital requirements based on the bank's internal Capital
Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The allocated equity amounts per
operating segment are reconciled to the Group Total equity, the nearest IFRS
measure, in Note 4.
Used by Group Management for
internal governance and operating
segment performance

Introduction

We have reviewed the Year-end report of Swedbank AB (publ) for 2024. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this Year-end report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Group, and with the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Parent Company.
