Positively shaping the future. Today and for generations to come.

Thirdquarter 2022

  • Continued operating leverage and robust asset quality led to 14.9 per cent return on equity, on a capital management buffer that exceeds the regulatory requirement by 410 basis points.
  • Customer sentiment, activity and our results were impacted by higher inflation, rising interest rates and volatile financial markets.
  • The Board of Directors resolved to utilise the authorisation granted by the 2022 Annual General Meeting, to initiate a new quarterly share buyback programme of SEK 1.25bn, which increases flexibility while maintaining the previous pace.

Adapting to a new environment

For almost three years, we have experienced a heightened level of global uncertainty. It began with the Covid-19 pandemic and the long-lasting ramifications it caused for individuals and societies around the world. Uncertainty of a different kind emerged earlier this year, when Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia's actions have, above all, resulted in immense human suffering but also changed the geopolitical and economic landscape as we know it. The elevated energy prices and increasing global inflationary pressure that followed have contributed additional uncertainty to an already fragile situation. Central banks have continued and accelerated monetary tightening, leading to a lower risk appetite among investors and increased concerns for recession.

In Sweden, many households and companies are facing challenging times due to the high inflation and increasing interest rates. Annual expenses for the average family living in a house are on average expected to increase by almost 50 per cent this year, according to SEB's economists. For many, this will be the first time that they experience lower real wages. This will negatively impact consumption and thus the overall economy.

While markets continue to be volatile, the search for a new equilibrium continues for interest rates, equities, foreign exchange rates, commodities and housing, among other asset classes. Despite difficulties to predict the future, the developments we are now seeing are likely to have profound and long-lasting effects, in the same way as previous crises have reshaped our world.

A quarter impacted by the new environment

In the third quarter, we generated a return on equity of 14.9 per cent. Higher inflation, rising interest rates and volatile financial markets are clearly impacting customer sentiment, activity and our results. Our large corporate customers were generally more cautious, reflected in a lower appetite in the primary markets while activity was high in the energy market, benefitting our commodities business. Financial institutions focused on risk management and rebalancing needs, particulary within FX. The declining equity markets affected assets under management and assets under custody negatively. For our retail customers, we saw a high demand for financial advice, and interest on savings accounts was reintroduced. Mortgage demand slowed in Sweden, reflecting the house price decline and lower transaction turnover. In a highly competitive market, where mortgage margins contracted further, our market share of new mortgages continues to be low. We are working patiently with our customer offering, including service and price, to come back to our historical market share.

Operating profit increased by 25 per cent, mainly driven by 15 per cent higher operating income while operating expenses were stable. We continue to see robust asset quality. Further downward revisions of the macroeconomic outlook resulted in net expected credit losses increasing to 8 basis points. Our guidance for costs and net expected credit losses for the year remains unchanged.

Our capital buffer amounted to 410 basis points. In order to increase flexibility while maintaining the pace of share buybacks, the Board of Directors has decided on a new quarterly programme of SEK 1.25bn until year-end 2022, following the previous semiannual programmes of SEK 2.5bn. With our solid earnings capacity, capital and liquidity buffers, we believe we are in a favourable position to continue to support our customers and invest in our business in line with our 2030 Strategy.

Higher cost inflation expected

The work to execute on our 2030 Strategy to future-proof our customer relationships, product offering, regulatory compliance and technology platform including data capabilities is largely progressing according to plan. While our long-term strategy remains firm despite cyclical considerations, we will in this year's business planning process check our assumptions and based on structural changes, calibrate our actions if deemed appropriate. Despite accelerated efficiency efforts, our planned investments in combination with the impact from inflation on salaries, rents, energy and IT costs, are likely to lead to a higher cost increase, all else equal, in 2023 than what we have seen in recent years. We will revert with any adjustments made to our business plan and a nominal cost target for 2023 in conjunction with the fourth-quarter report.

SEB's role in the energy transition

The current energy crisis has become more profound following Russia's suspension of 90 per cent of its supply of natural gas to Europe, leading to further supply constraints. We believe these effects provide insights into the underlying mechanisms of the energy market, highlighting the need for a diversified and more resilient energy production. In turn, we believe this will contribute to an acceleration of the ongoing energy transition in the long-term, despite short-term challenges. Here, SEB has an important role to play in supporting our customers, as part of our ambition to be a leading catalyst in the transition to a more sustainable society. In addition, we see continued strong growth in sustainable finance. For example, SEB acted as sustainability advisor to Mercedes-Benz in the transformation of a EUR 11bn revolving credit facility into a sustainability-linked loan – the second largest in Europe since the market's inception.

Today, we are communicating our net-zero aligned 2030 sector targets for financed emissions in our credit portfolio as part of our sustainability strategy and commitment to the Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA). The targets, which are an important part of our effort towards reaching a net-zero credit portfolio by 2050 or sooner, are focused on the areas where we can achieve the greatest positive impact for the climate. They initially cover SEB's lending and commitments to the sectors oil & gas (exploration & production and refining), power generation, steel, car manufacturing and Swedish household mortgages. The targets complement SEB's overarching climate ambitions and goals. On 15 November, at our annual sustainability event, we will provide an update on the development of these ambitions and goals, and elaborate on our 2030 targets.

Enabling resilience and flexibility

Since 1856, our strong financial position and long-term outlook have enabled us to support our customers in good times and bad, providing resilience and flexibility for people, businesses, and

society. As conditions now become increasingly challenging for many of our customers, we aim to remain a stable and trustworthy partner. That is how we continue creating value for all our stakeholders, and positively shape the future, today and for generations to come.

Restated comparative figures

On 28 March 2022, SEB published a press release with restated financial information. The changes, that do not affect the group's net profit or capital ratios, are fully reflected throughout this report. See page 46-47 for more information and reconciliation to previously published financial information.

The third quarter

Operating profit increased by 25 per cent compared with the second quarter to SEK 9,118m (7,285). Year-on-year operating profit increased by 14 per cent. Net profit amounted to SEK 7,311m (5,842).

Operating income

Total operating income increased by SEK 2,110m compared with the second quarter and amounted to SEK 16,551m (14,441). Compared with the third quarter 2021, total operating income increased by 18 per cent.

Net interest income amounted to SEK 8,925m, which represented an increase of 15 per cent compared with the second quarter (7,742) and an increase of 35 per cent yearon-year. The policy rate of the Swedish central bank increased twice in the third quarter, from 0.25 to 1.75 per cent. The European central bank also raised its key rates twice in the period. This affected margins on both loans and deposits.

Q3 Q2 Q3
SEK m 2022 2022 2021
Customer-driven NII 8 929 7 001 6 352
NII from other activities -4 740 259
Total 8 925 7 742 6 612

Customer-driven net interest income increased by SEK 1,927m compared with the second quarter. The main reason was an increase in deposit margins following the policy rate hikes, both in Sweden and the Baltic countries. Lending margins contributed negatively. Both lending and deposit volumes contributed positively. The deposit guarantee fees amounted to SEK 113m (101).

Net interest income from other activities decreased by SEK 744m compared with the second quarter. There was a negative effect from Treasury following increased market rates. The positive contribution from the FICC unit (Fixed Income, Currencies and Commodities) observed in the second quarter remained in the third quarter.

Net fee and commission income decreased by 4 per cent in the third quarter to SEK 5,261m (5,498). Year-on-year, net fee and commission income increased by 1 per cent.

Given the recent macroeconomic development with the heightened level of uncertainty, inflation and rising interest rates, customers continued to be cautious. Capital marketrelated activities slowed further from the already slower first half of the year. Gross fee income from issuance of securities and advisory services decreased by 19 per cent to SEK 334m. Similarly, event-driven financing decreased leading to a decline in gross lending fees by SEK 169m to SEK 825m.

Equity markets activity continued to be subdued. Gross secondary market and derivatives income decreased by 15 per cent in the third quarter to SEK 465m. Year-on-year market volatility was elevated, and gross secondary market and derivatives income increased by 8 per cent.

Gross fee income from custody and mutual funds, excluding performance fees, increased by SEK 42m to SEK 2,434m from the second quarter. Declining asset values decreased the gross fee income related to mutual funds. However, gross fee income in the custody business increased as previously won mandates are now generating income. Performance fees amounted to SEK 61m (133).

Net payment and card fees were stable in the quarter, amounting to SEK 1,182m (1,177). The seasonal slow-down was counteracted by an inflation effect.

The net life insurance commissions related to the unitlinked insurance business increased and amounted to SEK 257m (230).

Net financial income increased by SEK 1,170m to SEK 2,324m compared with the second quarter. Year-on-year, net financial income increased by SEK 205m.

Given the current market conditions, customer need for risk management led to a strong demand for services within foreign exchange and energy commodities.

Within Treasury activities there was a reversal of the significant negative revaluation effects seen in the previous quarter. More specifically the value of bond holdings was less negative compared with the second quarter while valuations of interest rate and foreign exchange swaps were positive.

The fair value credit adjustment1) amounted to SEK -33m, an increase of SEK 43m compared with the second quarter.

The market value change of certain strategic holdings amounted to SEK 74m in the third quarter, a positive change of SEK 229m compared with the second quarter.

Net financial income from the Life division increased to SEK 210m (160). One reason was that the negative effects of widening credit spreads decreased somewhat compared with the second quarter.

Net other income amounted to SEK 41m (47). Unrealised valuation and hedge accounting effects are included in this line item.

Comparative numbers (in parenthesis throughout the report) Unless otherwise stated:

-the result for the reporting quarter is compared with the prior quarter -the result for the first nine months is compared with the first nine months 2021

-business volumes are compared with the prior quarter

1 Unrealised valuation change from counterparty risk (CVA) and own credit risk standing in derivatives (DVA). Own credit risk for issued securities (OCA) is reflected in Other comprehensive income.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 6,293m (6,201). Total operating expenses increased by 1 per cent from the second quarter and by 11 per cent year-on-year.

Staff costs were unchanged from the second quarter. The number of full-time equivalents was 16,491 (16,277). The increase in other expenses related to an increase in other operating expenses. Supervisory fees amounted to SEK 42m (51).

Costs developed broadly according to the business plan for 2022-2024. The cost target for 2022 is outlined on page 12.

Net expected credit losses

Net expected credit losses amounted to SEK 567m (399), corresponding to a net expected credit loss level of 8 basis points (6). The increase was mainly driven by a further downward revision of the macroeconomic scenarios. The underlying asset quality of the credit portfolio continued to be robust.

For more information on credit risk, asset quality, net expected credit losses and the portfolio model overlays, see page 10 and notes 10-12.

Imposed levies: Risk tax and resolution fees

Imposed levies amounted to SEK 572m (556). A risk tax on credit institutions was introduced in Sweden as of 1 January 2022. It is applied on credit institutions with a liabilities tax base exceeding SEK 150bn. The tax rate is 0.05 per cent of the tax base for 2022 and 0.06 per cent for 2023. The risk tax for the third quarter amounted to SEK 296m (296). The resolution fees increased to SEK 277m (260).

Income tax expense

Income tax expense increased to SEK 1,807m (1,443) with an effective tax rate of 19.8 per cent (19.8).

Return on equity

Return on equity for the third quarter increased to 14.9 per cent (12.3).

Other comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income amounted to SEK -779m (1,481).

The value of SEB's pension plan assets continued to exceed the defined benefit obligations to the employees even as the change in net value of the defined benefit pension plans decreased other comprehensive income by SEK -868m (226). The Swedish discount rate was unchanged, at 3.8 per cent in the third quarter, as was the inflation assumption of 2 per cent.

The net effect from the valuation of balance sheet items that may subsequently be reclassified to the income statement, i.e. cash flow hedges and translation of foreign operations amounted to SEK 92m (1,235).

The first nine months

Operating profit increased by 4 per cent to SEK 24,260m compared with the first nine months 2021 (23,388). Net profit amounted to SEK 19,555m (19,225).

Operating income

Total operating income increased by SEK 4,248m compared with the first nine months 2021 and amounted to SEK 45,759m (41,511).

Net interest income amounted to SEK 23,728m, which represented an increase of 22 per cent compared with the first nine months 2021 (19,380).

Jan-Sep
SEK m 2022 2021 %
Customer-driven NII 22 660 19 658 15
NII from other activities 1 069 -278
Total 23 728 19 380 22

Customer-driven net interest income increased by SEK 3,002m year-on-year. Increased deposit margins represented the main increase following the policy rate hikes, both in Sweden and the Baltic countries. Lending margins contributed negatively. Lending volumes, of which a part related to bridge financing, contributed positively. The deposit guarantee fees amounted to SEK 315m (266).

Net interest income from other activities improved by SEK 1,347m year-on-year. The majority of the increase derived from internal funds transfer pricing primarily from the first half of the year.

Net fee and commission income increased by 6 per cent compared with the first nine months of 2021 to SEK 16,157m (15,258).

Net payment and card fees increased by SEK 800m to SEK 3,327m. Payment activity and card usage recovered from the subdued pandemic levels in the prior year.

The gross fee income from custody and mutual funds, excluding performance fees, increased by SEK 617m to SEK 7,424m compared with the first nine months 2021. The gross fee income reflected a positive effect from the volume growth in the custody business as of year-end 2021. Performance fees decreased to SEK 358m (375).

Event-driven capital market-related activity slowed markedly compared with the first nine months 2021. As bond market spreads increased corporate customers increasingly preferred traditional bank financing over issuing own bonds. Gross fee income from issuance of securities and advisory services decreased by SEK 232m to SEK 1,166m. Gross lending fees, on the other hand, mainly event-related, increased by SEK 407m to SEK 2,623m.

Higher activity in the financial markets year-on-year resulted in an increase of secondary market and derivatives income of 7 per cent in the first nine months to SEK 1,570m.

The net life insurance commissions related to the unitlinked insurance business amounted to SEK 763m (881). Net financial income decreased by SEK 906m to

SEK 5,812m compared with the first nine months 2021.

The fair value credit adjustment1) amounted to SEK 140m, a decrease of SEK 195m compared with the first nine months 2021.

The market value change of certain strategic holdings amounted to SEK -216m for the nine-month period, a negative change of SEK 1,080m in net financial income year-on-year.

In 2021 a valuation gain from the sale of Tink of SEK 514m was reported. In 2022 there was a realised gain of SEK 262m from the actual sale. Therefore net financial income from Tink was SEK 252m lower in comparison with last year.

There was a significant positive valuation effect in the Treasury portfolios while net financial income from the Life division decreased by SEK 221m to SEK 530m.

Net other income amounted to SEK 62m (155). Unrealised valuation and hedge accounting effects are included in this line item.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 18,288m (17,148), representing an increase of 7 per cent.

Staff costs increased by 2 per cent. The 21 per cent increase in other expenses was mainly related to IT investments, consulting costs and increased travel. Supervisory fees amounted to SEK 132m (134).

Net expected credit losses

Net expected credit losses increased to SEK 1,501m (211), corresponding to a net expected credit loss level of 7 basis points (1), due to increased provisions on a few specific counterparties and downward revisions of the macroeconomic scenarios. During the year, the portfolio model overlays decreased to SEK 1.9bn (2.0bn at year-end 2021). Covid-19 and oil portfolio-related model overlays were released, and new portfolio model overlays were made to reflect risks from higher energy prices, supply chain issues and inflation.

For more information on credit risk, asset quality, net expected credit losses and the portfolio model overlays, see further page 10 and notes 10-12.

Imposed levies: Risk tax and resolution fees

Imposed levies amounted to SEK 1,711m (764). The risk tax amounted to SEK 887m. The resolution fees rose to SEK 824m (764).

Income tax expense

Income tax expense increased to SEK 4,705m (4,163) with an effective tax rate of 19.4 per cent (17.8). The increased effective tax rate is mainly explained by a lower result for investments in shares held for business purposes which are exempt from income tax.

Return on equity

Return on equity for the first nine months decreased to 13.5 per cent (14.2).

Other comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income amounted to SEK 1,772m (9,556). The change in net value of the defined benefit pension plans affected other comprehensive income by SEK 198m (9,172).

The net effect from the valuation of balance sheet items that may subsequently be reclassified to the income statement, i.e. cash flow hedges and translation of foreign operations amounted to SEK 1,523m (376).

1 Unrealised valuation change from counterparty risk (CVA) and own credit risk standing in derivatives (DVA). Own credit risk for issued securities (OCA) is reflected in Other comprehensive income.

Debt securities decreased by SEK 26bn to SEK 316bn in the third quarter. The securities are short-term in nature and have high credit worthiness.

Assets under management and custody

Total assets under management amounted to SEK 2,018bn (2,100). The market value decreased by SEK 60bn during the quarter (293). The net outflows of assets under management amounted to SEK 22bn (39). Certain specific mandates were moved out for strategic purposes and there was a second and final transfer of SEK 10bn relating to the Ringkjøbing Landbobank transaction which was communicated in the second quarter.

Assets under custody amounted to SEK 18,091bn given the decreasing asset values (19,591).

Risk and capital

SEB's business is exposed to many different types of risks. The risk composition of the group, as well as the related risk, liquidity and capital management, are described in SEB's Annual and Sustainability Report for 2021 (see page 86-91 and notes 40 and 41), in the Capital Adequacy and Risk Management Report for 2021 as well as the quarterly additional Pillar 3 disclosures. Further information is available in the Fact Book that is published quarterly.

SEB's credit portfolio, which includes loans, contingent liabilities and derivatives, increased by SEK 105bn in the third quarter to SEK 3,097bn (2,992). The corporate credit portfolio increased by SEK 79bn, of which approximately half represented new volumes and half was due to the weaker Swedish krona against, in particular, the US dollar. The real estate portfolios, including housing co-operative associations, and household mortgages were more or less flat.

Asset quality indicators such as past due loans continued to be largely unchanged during the quarter. Currency effects led to higher gross exposures and ECL allowances in all stages. Credit-impaired loans (gross loans in stage 3) were stable at SEK 8.7bn (8.8), corresponding to 0.41 per cent of total loans (0.43), as write-offs were offset by an increase from currency effects. Stage 1 and 2 ECL allowances increased mainly from macroeconomic scenario revisions, partly offset by a release of the oil portfolio model overlay. See net expected credit loss comment on page 9.

Notes 10-12 provide a more detailed breakdown of SEB's loan portfolio by industry and asset quality as well as corresponding ECL allowances. The Fact book provides a breakdown of SEB's credit portfolio and lending portfolio by industry and geography.

Market risk

Market volatility, especially related to the rising interest rates and widening credit spreads, led to increased market risk, measured as VaR. As of the third quarter 2022, average VaR in the regulatory trading book amounted to SEK 298m (217). The group does not expect to lose more than this amount, on average, during a period of ten trading days with 99 per cent probability. SEB's business model is mainly driven by customer demand.

Liquidity and funding

SEB maintained a strong and diversified liquidity and funding position in the quarter. The loan-to-deposit ratio was 93 per cent per 30 September 2022 (93).

SEB's long-term wholesale funding need continued to be mainly regulatory-driven. New issuance amounted to SEK 13bn, of which SEK 8bn in covered bonds and SEK 5bn in senior non-preferred debt. SEK 8bn of long-term funding matured, of which all senior debt.

Short-term funding in the form of commercial paper and certificates of deposit increased by SEK 29bn.

Liquid assets defined according to the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) requirements amounted to SEK 1,207bn at 30 September 2022 (1,152) and the LCR was 120 per cent (135). The minimum requirement is 100 per cent.

The net stable funding ratio (NSFR) requirement is that stable funding shall be at least 100 per cent of illiquid assets. Per 30 September 2022, SEB's NSFR was 109 per cent (110).

Rating

Fitch rates SEB's long-term senior unsecured debt at AA– with stable outlook. The rating is based on SEB's low risk appetite, stable and well-executed strategy, and robust asset quality and capitalisation. The rating was affirmed in July 2022.

Moody's rates SEB's long-term senior unsecured debt at Aa3 with stable outlook based on the bank's strong asset quality and solid capitalisation which are expected to continue to be resilient in the aftermath of Covid-19 induced economic disruption. While the bank has good underlying earnings generation, the corporate banking focus could add earnings cyclicality. The rating of the senior unsecured debt was downgraded to Aa3 from Aa2 in October 2021, following the Swedish National Debt Office's (the resolution authority) proposal to amend its rules on Minimum Requirements for Eligible Liabilities and Own Funds (MREL) which will result in most Swedish banks needing to issue lower levels of additional loss-absorbing debt.

S&P rates SEB's long-term senior unsecured debt at A+ with stable outlook. The rating is based on the stable and lowrisk operating environment in Sweden, the bank's stable and well-diversified revenue base and leading position among large Nordic corporates, robust capitalisation and resilient earnings, despite expected increasing pressure on revenues and asset quality in the economic environment. The rating was affirmed in July 2022.

Risk exposure amount

The total risk exposure amount (REA) increased by SEK 31bn to SEK 882bn during the third quarter.

Credit risk REA increased by SEK 17bn. Foreign exchange movements and asset size contributed to the increase, somewhat mitigated by improved asset quality. Market risk REA increased by SEK 14bn, the main driver being market volatility. Operational risk REA remained largely unchanged and there were no model and methodology updates during the quarter.

Capital position

The following table shows REA and capital ratios according to applicable capital regulation:

30 Sep 30 Jun 31 Dec
Own funds requirement, Basel III 2022 2022 2021
Risk exposure amount, SEK bn 882 851 787
Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio, % 18.1 18.6 19.7
Tier 1 capital ratio, % 19.9 20.3 21.4
Total capital ratio, % 21.6 22.0 23.1
Leverage ratio, % 4.3 4.3 5.0

SEB's Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio decreased to 18.1 per cent (18.6). The decrease was due to an increase in REA of SEK 31bn.

SEB's second share buyback programme was completed on 24 October 2022 and the Board of Directors has resolved a new, third, programme to be initiated on 27 October 2022. The new programme amounts to SEK 1.25bn and is to be completed by 30 December 2022. SEB has received supervisory approval to repurchase shares for up to SEK 2.5bn until the 2023 Annual General Meeting, and has deducted this amount in full from the CET1 capital. The change from a semi-annual to a quarterly buyback programme enables SEB to increase flexibility while maintaining the same pace of share repurchases. See further page 12.

SEB's applicable CET1 capital requirement and Pillar 2 guidance (P2G) per the end of the third quarter was 14.0 per cent (13.8). Per 29 September 2022, the countercyclical buffer requirement in Sweden increased from zero to 1 per cent. SEB's target is to have a buffer of 100 to 300 basis points above the capital requirement. The buffer shall cover sensitivity to currency fluctuations in REA, changes in the net value of the Swedish defined benefit pension plan as well as general macroeconomic uncertainties. The buffer is currently approximately 410 basis points (480).

SEB's leverage ratio was 4.3 per cent at the end of the quarter (4.3) whereas the leverage ratio requirement and P2G was 3.45 per cent (3.45).

Internally assessed capital requirement

As per 30 September 2022, the internally assessed capital requirement, including insurance risk, amounted to SEK 105bn (104). The internal capital requirement is assessed using SEB's internal models for economic capital and is not fully comparable to the estimated capital requirement published by the SFSA due to differences in assumptions and methodologies.

The internally assessed capital requirement for the parent company was SEK 89bn (86).

Other information

Long-term financial targets for the group

With the overall purpose to increase capital management flexibility, the Board of Directors' long-term financial targets are:

  • to pay a yearly dividend that is around 50 per cent of the earnings per share excluding items affecting comparability, and distribute potential capital in excess of the targeted capital position mainly through share repurchases,
  • to maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 100– 300 basis points above the requirement from the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA), and
  • to generate a return on equity that is competitive with peers.

In the long term, SEB aspires to reach a sustainable return on equity of 15 per cent.

Financial aspirations for the divisions

The long-term divisional aspirations for profitability (RoBE) and cost efficiency (C/I ratio) are set mainly based on two factors. Firstly, each division will have the ambition to achieve best in class profitability and cost efficiency compared with similar businesses among relevant peers. Secondly, each division's aspirations are set so that they enable SEB to achieve its long-term aspiration of 15 per cent return on equity on group level.

Business plan 2022-2024 and cost target

The aim is to create shareholder value by accelerating income growth, driving earnings per share growth, increasing our profitability and future-proofing the business. This will be achieved by capitalising on a position of strength and by further investing into the business, as outlined in the business plan for 2022-2024.

The cost target entails growing the business in a capitalefficient manner to reach the long-term financial targets. In the short-term, the cost target for 2022 is SEK 24.5bn, assuming 2021 FX-rates. With the 30 September 2022 foreign exchange rates, the implied cost target for 2022 is SEK 24.9bn. Towards the end of the business plan period, the plan is to be within the long-term capital target of 100-300 basis points above the regulatory requirement. During 2022 the plan is to distribute between SEK 5-10bn through share buybacks, subject to market conditions. All of this is with the overall ambition to grow earnings per share and reach the long-term aspirational target of 15 per cent return on equity.

Share buyback programmes

On 22 March 2022, SEB announced its second SEK 2.5bn share buyback programme for capital management purposes. The repurchases of shares began on 23 March 2022 and ended on 24 October 2022. During that period, SEB repurchased 23,375,979 of its own Class A shares at an average price per share of SEK 106.95, for a total purchase amount of SEK 2.5bn.

On 25 October 2022, the Board of Directors resolved to utilise the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting held on 22 March 2022, to initiate a new SEK 1.25bn buyback programme of Class A shares. SEB has received supervisory approval to repurchase shares for up to SEK 2.5bn until the end of the first quarter 2023. The programme is expected to commence on 27 October 2022 and end on 30 December 2022. A maximum number of shares may be repurchased so that SEB's total holding at any time does not exceed 10 per cent of SEB's total number of issued shares. Repurchased shares are expected to be cancelled during the first half of 2023.

Impact from exchange rate fluctuations

The currency effect increased operating profit for the third quarter by SEK 82m.

Compared with the second quarter, the weaker Swedish krona increased loans to and deposits from the public by SEK 20bn and SEK 26bn, respectively, while total REA increased by SEK 9bn, and the increase of total assets was SEK44bn.

Uncertainties

The relevant overall risks and uncertainties for the SEB Group are outlined in the 2021 Annual and Sustainability Report and the previous 2022 Quarterly Reports.

Increasing inflation has caused central banks to raise interest rates and initiate or plan for quantitative tightening. On 20 September 2022, the Executive Board of the Swedish central bank announced its decision to increase the policy rate by 1.00 percentage point to 1.75 per cent as of 21 September 2022. The Swedish central bank's forecast for the policy rate was revised, indicating that the policy rate will be increased further during the coming six months. Interest rate levels is a key factor affecting SEB's net interest income and operating profit.

A negative global macroeconomic development may have implications on SEB's asset quality and asset values may deteriorate. Financial markets' volatility may impact fair values of certain financial instruments and holdings, and consequently, net financial income and capital, and, financial institutions may be affected in terms of funding availability.

The Swedish Pensions Agency has made a claim for damages against SEB in its capacity as depositary for the fund company Gustavia Davegårdh Fonder's investment funds. The claim amounts to just over SEK 470m excluding interest and relates to transactions carried out in 2012. The Swedish Pensions Agency is of the opinion that SEB has failed in its controlling responsibilities in relation to these transactions. The claim has been made against SEB without any prior communication with the bank. SEB is of the opinion that the bank has fulfilled its duties as depositary in regards to these transactions and that the bank has no liability for damages, and has disputed the claim in a letter to the Swedish Pensions Agency. No provision has been recognised in accordance with accounting regulations.

  • Increased corporate client activity within the energy segment on the back of surging energy prices
  • Hedging and rebalancing needs among institutional clients given increased market volatility
  • Operating profit amounted to SEK 3,334m and return on business equity was 13.7 per cent

Comments on the third quarter

Rising inflationary pressure, tighter monetary policies, continued geopolitical uncertainty, and volatile markets adversely impacted the already modest capital markets activity. Corporate lending remained stable whereas client activity within the energy segment increased on the back of surging energy prices.

Within the large corporate customer segment, the muted activity in the primary market continued with modest investor risk appetite whereas mergers and acquisitions activity demonstrated more resilience in the seasonally slower third quarter. The interest rate environment was favourable for cash management services. Concurrently client demand for risk management services increased within the commodities area on the back of increased market volatility in the energy sector.

Within the financial institutions customer segment, high market volatility continued to impact the overall business sentiment. Currency trading activities continued on elevated levels and inflation, rising interest rates and geopolitical risks laid ground for both hedging and rebalancing needs for financial institutions in general. The uncertain macroeconomic environment and bearish equity markets led to lower demand for equity products.

Assets under custody declined to SEK 18,091bn (19,591) mainly as a consequence of decreasing asset values.

Operating profit amounted to SEK 3,334m. Net interest income increased by 13 per cent, primarily driven by interest rate hikes. Net fee and commission income decreased by 14 per cent, predominantly reflecting lower investment banking activity. Net financial income increased by 18 per cent driven by higher demand for currency and commodity services. Operating expenses decreased by 1 per cent. Net expected credit losses increased to SEK 349m, with a net expected credit loss level of 10 basis points. See page 8.

Comments on the third quarter

With the continued rapid change in interest rates and weak macroeconomic outlook the demand for financial advice from customers remained at a high level.

In the corporate customer segment, the net inflow of fullservice customers continued. During the quarter, lending volumes increased due to growth in corporate and card lending while real estate lending volumes continued to decline. Overall, corporate lending increased by SEK 3bn to SEK 296bn (294) while corporate deposits declined in the quarter. Assets under management decreased due to a combination of falling asset values and net outflows.

In the private customer segment, growth in household mortgage volumes slowed. In a highly competitive market with contracting mortgage margins, the market share of new mortgages continued to be low. Mortgage volumes were stable and amounted to SEK 561bn (560). The development of deposit volumes was weak. At the end of the quarter, interest on savings accounts was reintroduced. Despite increased market uncertainty net savings was only slightly

negative among private customers but with declining stock markets, assets under management decreased.

In total, lending volumes grew by SEK 3bn to SEK 877bn. Deposit volumes decreased by SEK 13bn and amounted to SEK 481bn.

The operating profit amounted to SEK 2,839m. Net interest income increased by 29 per cent explained by increasing margins on deposits following higher interest rates while lending margins declined. Net fee and commission income remained stable compared with the second quarter in both the card business as well as securities commissions. Corporate card transactions and exchange fees are back at pre-Covid 19 levels. Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 1,816m, an increase by 2 per cent compared with last quarter. Net expected credit losses increased to SEK 212m, with a net expected credit loss level of 8 basis points. See page 8.

Comments on the third quarter

The third quarter was characterised by further negative stock market development, increased uncertainty and inflation. In this environment, customers' demand for long-term investment advisory services remained at a high level and customers also sought market information updates. The number of customers increased in all geographical locations.

Assets under management decreased by 5 per cent compared with the second quarter. The division's strategic partnership with Ringkjøbing Landbobank, communicated in the second quarter, included a second and final transfer of SEK 10bn of assets under management. Excluding this effect, net inflow amounted to SEK 3bn. The overall stock market development during the quarter impacted assets under management negatively by SEK 40bn.

In the current environment, customer demand for financing was low and loan volumes increased by SEK 1bn to SEK 73 bn. Deposit volumes increased by SEK 1 bn to SEK 143bn.

The operating profit amounted to SEK 475m. Net interest income increased by 73 per cent driven mainly by deposit margins that increased when interest rates increased. Net fee and commission income decreased by 3 per cent, mainly explained by the asset under management development and less activity-driven income. Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 385m, slightly below the second quarter level.

  • Given the highest inflation in the EU, business sentiment weakened
  • Rising eurozone interest rates increased net interest income
  • Operating profit amounted to SEK 1,184m and return on business equity was 30.0 per cent

Comments on the third quarter

The Baltic economies showed resilience despite the challenging geopolitical situation. However, the successful replacement of Russian energy imports with the ensuing higher energy prices has, together with food price increases, contributed to a broader inflation in turn leading to a weakening business sentiment.

Record high electricity prices impacted corporate customers' profitability negatively with regional competitiveness reduced as a result. Employers are becoming cautious in hiring. The higher energy prices however provide an incentive to companies to invest in renewable energy production to reduce long-term energy costs.

After a brief recovery period after the Covid-19 restrictions were lifted, consumer confidence slumped again. Although unemployment remained at historically low levels, real household consumption weakened as inflation exceeded net wages growth and the retail sector retracted. Residential property prices increased, the market however is cooling following sharp increases in Euribor rates and decreasing affordability.

Reflecting this, lending volumes to private customers grew at a slower rate during the quarter, while lending activity to corporate customers was led by Estonia and Latvia with

increases observed in the green lending portfolio. Together, lending volumes increased by 2 per cent in local currency during the quarter and amounted to SEK 176bn (170). Driven by Lithuania, deposit volumes from corporate customers rebounded strongly, which, partially offset by the first reduction in all three countries' household savings since before the pandemic, led to an overall increase in deposit volumes in local currency by 3 per cent and amounted to SEK 221bn (211).

Operating profit amounted to SEK 1 184m. Net interest income increased by 21 per cent in local currency, mainly due to the impact of rising eurozone interest rates on deposit and lending volumes, and also on their positive effect on excess liquidity. Net fee and commission income increased by 1 per cent in local currency, due mainly to inflationary effects on card volumes. Net financial income increased fourfold due principally to higher market values of interest rate swaps in the liquidity and banking books following the movements in market interest rates. Operating expenses increased by 3 per cent in local currency due mainly to increased data and staff costs. Net expected credit losses amounted to SEK 8m, or 2 basis points. See page 8.

  • Recovering financial performance in the third quarter
  • Stable market share for Swedish life insurance
  • Operating profit amounted to SEK 478m and return on business equity was 34.2 per cent

Comments on the third quarter

The prevailing macroeconomic environment with high inflation rates, negative equity markets and rising interest levels, had some negative effects on the savings product market. This, coupled with normal seasonal variations, resulted in a decrease in quarterly total sales by 13 per cent.

Swedish sales of occupational pension were strong throughout the year but decreased compared with the second quarter mainly due to seasonal effects. Endowment products decreased as a consequence of both seasonal variations and the market situation affecting both unit-linked and traditional insurance. Risk insurance sales were also lower.

Baltic sales were up 14 per cent compared with the previous quarter mainly due to strong development in the pension fund area, where customers entering the pension system were onboarded in all three Baltic countries. Risk insurance sales decreased due to seasonal effects.

Despite the somewhat challenging savings market, SEB's market share was maintained at a second position in the Swedish life insurance market, amounting to 13.3 per cent1). The market share in the Baltic region also remained strong and unchanged.

Although financial markets volatility remained elevated in the third quarter, the market movement effect on asset values was less dramatic than the second quarter. Total assets under management amounted to SEK 419bn, a decrease of 1 per cent. Unit-linked assets represented SEK 346bn (351), traditional and risk insurance assets amounted to SEK 30bn (31) and other savings products SEK 42bn (42).

Operating profit increased to SEK 478m, to a large extent a result of improved income due to high asset values in the first half of the quarter which subsequently subsided. Net fee and commission income increased by 6 per cent, mainly from the unit-linked business. Net financial income increased by 31 per cent. The negative effects of widening credit spreads decreased somewhat compared with the second quarter while the unfavorable development in the equity and fixed income markets towards the end of the quarter affected income in the traditional and other portfolios. Income from risk insurance products decreased. Operating expenses increased by 2 per cent.

Decreasing returns in the Swedish traditional portfolios changed the bonus rate from 3 to 1 per cent as of August 1.

  • Subdued customer willingness to invest and net outflows of assets under management
  • SEB-labelled mutual funds classified as Article 8 or 9 represented 83 per cent of total assets under management
  • Operating profit amounted to SEK 443m and return on business equity was 55.8 per cent

Comments on the third quarter

The continued turbulent macroeconomic environment with global uncertainties affected the market values negatively. Total assets under management decreased by SEK 38bn to SEK 1,047bn (1,085). The value decreased by SEK 19bn, and the net outflow amounted to SEK 19bn, with outflows in all asset classes but mainly within equities. In general, clients' willingness to invest in the financial markets was dampened during the quarter.

Within SEB Investment Management the assets under management, SEB-labelled mutual funds, decreased by SEK 28bn during the quarter and amounted to SEK 660bn (688). There were negative effects in all asset classes, but mainly within equities. SEB-labelled mutual funds classified in line with Article 8 and 91 in the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) amounted to SEK 549bn (566) which

represented 83 per cent of SEB-labelled assets under management (82). Out of this total, SEK 532bn was classified as Article 8 and SEK 18bn was classified as Article 9.

Institutional Asset Management was also affected by declining market values and net outflows. One specific business relationship impacting several holdings represented the majority of the total net outflow amounting to SEK 10bn.

Operating income amounted to SEK 779m (817). Net fee and commission income decreased by 6 per cent. Performance fees were lower and amounted to SEK 51m (91). Since average assets under management were lower, base commissions also decreased and amounted to SEK 702m (711). Operating expenses were almost flat. Operating profit amounted to SEK 443m (480).

1 Article 8 refers to funds that promote environmental or social characteristics while Article 9 funds must have a sustainable investment objective. See esma.europe.eu.

Notes to the financial statements - SEB Group

Note 1 Accounting policies and presentation

This Report is presented in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The group's consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations of these standards as adopted by the European Commission. The accounting also follows the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies (1995:1559) and the regulation and general guidelines issued by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority: Annual Reports in Credit Institutions and Securities Companies (FFFS 2008:25). In addition, the Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups (RFR 1) from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board have been applied. The parent company has prepared its accounts in accordance with Swedish Annual Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's Regulations and General Guidelines (FFFS 2008:25) on Annual Reports in Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the Supplementary Accounting Rules for Legal Entities (RFR 2) issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board.

As of 1 January 2022, SEB has made several changes to the presentation of the Income statement and as a result the comparative figures have been restated. See section on restated comparative figures for more information. In conjunction with the introduction of the Swedish risk tax, the group has changed the presentation of the Income statement by adding a new reporting line Imposed levies: risk tax and resolution fees. Resolution fees, previously presented in Net interest income, are presented in Imposed levies going forward. The reporting line Profit before credit losses has

been changed to Profit before credit losses and imposed levies. The purpose of the changes is to clarify the reporting and facilitate the comparison of operating profit between periods. SEB invests in interest-bearing securities both for customer purposes and for liquidity management purposes. These securities are classified as held for trading or mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss and changes in fair value of these securities are recognised in Net financial income, and the interest in Net interest income. Going forward, the amortisation of premium or discount from acquisition of these securities is presented in Net interest income instead of in Net financial income. In addition, the reporting line Gains less losses from tangible and intangible assets is removed. The changes in presentation have not had any impact on the profit or loss, or equity. SEB has, to reflect the current reporting and decision-making process, changed the presentation of reportable segments. For more information, see Business segments page 14.

As of 1 January 2022, the group applies the following amendments to IFRS standards: IFRS 3 Business Combinations – Reference to the Conceptual Framework. specification to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets – Onerous Contracts and 2018-2020 annual improvements to IFRS. The implementation has had no impact on the group's financial position, earnings, cash flow or disclosures.

In all other material aspects, the group's and the parent company's accounting policies, basis for calculations and presentations are unchanged in comparison with the 2021 Annual and Sustainability Report.

Fair value measurement

The objective of the fair value measurement is to arrive at the price at which an orderly transaction would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.

The group has an established control environment for the determination of fair values of financial instruments that includes a review, independent from the business, of valuation models and prices. If the validation principles are not adhered to, the Head of Group Finance shall be informed. Exceptions of material and principal importance require approval from the Valuation Committee / GRMC (Group Risk Measurement Committee) and the ARC (Accounting and Reporting Committee).

In order to arrive at the fair value of a financial instrument SEB uses different methods; quoted prices in active markets, valuation techniques incorporating observable data and valuation techniques based on internal models. For disclosure purposes, financial instruments carried at fair value are classified in a fair value hierarchy according to the level of market observability of the inputs. Group Risk classifies and continuously reviews the classification of financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation process is the same for financial instruments in all levels.

An active market is one in which transactions occur with sufficient volume and frequency to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The objective is to arrive at a price at which a transaction without modification or repackaging would occur in the principal market for the instrument to which SEB has immediate access.

Fair value is generally measured for individual financial instruments, in addition portfolio adjustments are made to cover the credit risk. To reflect counterparty risk and own credit risk in OTC derivatives, adjustments are made based on the net exposure towards each counterpart. These adjustments are calculated on a counterparty level based on estimates of exposure at default, probability of default and recovery rates. Probability of default and recovery rate information is generally sourced from the CDS markets. For counterparties where this information is not available, or considered unreliable due to the nature of the exposure, alternative approaches are taken where the the probability of default is based on generic credit indices for specific industry and/or rating. When valuing financial liabilities at fair value SEB's own credit standing is reflected.

In order to arrive at the fair value of investment properties a market participant's ability to generate economic benefit by using the asset in its highest and best use are taken into account. The highest and best use takes into account the use of the asset that is physically possible, legally permissible and financially feasible. The current use of the investment properties in SEB is in accordance with the highest and best use. The valuation of investment properties is described in the accounting policies in the Annual and Sustainability Report note 1. The valuation of the investment properties is performed semi-annually, they are presented and approved by the board in each real estate company. The valuation principles used in all entities are in accordance with regulations provided by the local Financial Supervisory Authorities (FSA) which is in accordance with international valuation principles and in accordance with IFRS.

Level 1: Quoted market prices

Valuations in Level 1 are determined by reference to unadjusted quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets where the quoted prices are readily available and the prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. Examples of Level 1 financial instruments are listed equity securities, debt securities, and exchange-traded derivatives. Instruments traded in an active market for which one or more market participants provide a binding price quotation on the balance sheet date are also examples of Level 1 financial instruments.

Level 2: Valuation techniques with observable inputs

In Level 2 valuation techniques, all significant inputs to the valuation models are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 valuation techniques include using discounted cash flows, option pricing models, recent transactions and the price of another instrument that is substantially the same.

Examples of observable inputs are foreign currency exchange rates, binding securities price quotations, market interest rates (Stibor, Libor, etc.), volatilities implied from observable option prices for the same term and actual transactions with one or more external counterparts executed by SEB. An input can transfer from being observable to being unobservable during the holding period due to e.g. illiquidity of the instrument. Examples of Level 2 financial instruments are most OTC derivatives such as options and interest rate swaps based on the Libor swap rate or a foreign-denominated yield curve. Other examples are instruments for which SEB recently entered into transactions with third parties and instruments for which SEB interpolates between observable variables.

Level 3: Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs

Level 3 valuation techniques incorporate significant inputs that are unobservable. These techniques are generally based on extrapolating from observable inputs for similar instruments, analysing historical data or other analytical techniques. Examples of Level 3 financial instruments are more complex OTC derivatives, long dated options for which the volatility is extrapolated or derivatives that depend on an unobservable correlation. Other examples are instruments for which there is currently no active market or binding quotes, such as unlisted equity instruments, private equity holdings and investment properties.

If the fair value of financial instruments includes more than one unobservable input, the unobservable inputs are aggregated in order to determine the classification of the entire instrument. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a financial instrument is classified is determined on the basis of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value in its entirety.

Significant transfers and reclassifications between levels

Transfers between levels may occur when there are indications that market conditions have changed, e.g. a change in liquidity. The Valuation / Pricing committee of each relevant division decides on material shifts between levels. During the first quarter transfers occurred from Level 1 and Level 2 to Level 3 of SEK 0.2bn within Debt instruments of Ukrainian government bonds. Additionally within Equity instruments, transfers occurred from Level 1 and Level 2 into Level 3 of SEK 0.9bn of Russian / Eastern Europe Funds. Following a review of Hedge Funds, within Equity instruments, a transfer out of Level 3 occurred of SEK 0.5bn. At the end of the third quarter approximately SEK 1.5bn in loans moved into Level 3 due to less observable inputs from market data. The largest open market risk within Level 3 financial instruments remains in the traditional life insurance investment portfolios within the insurance business.

Sensitivity of Level 3 assets and liabilities to unobservable inputs

The table below illustrates the potential Profit or Loss impact of the relative uncertainty in the fair value of assets and liabilities that for their valuation are dependent on unobservable inputs. The sensitivity to unobservable inputs is assessed by altering the assumptions to the valuation techniques, illustrated below by changes in index-linked swap spreads, implied volatilities, credit spreads or comparator multiples. It is unlikely that all unobservable inputs would be simultaneously at the extremes of their ranges of reasonably possible alternatives.

1) Volatility valuation inputs for Bermudan swaptions are unobservable. Volatilities used for ordinary swaptions are adjusted further in order to reflect the additional uncertainty associated with the valuation of

Bermudan style swaptions. The sensitivity is calculated from shift in implied volatilities and aggregated from each currency and maturity bucket.

2) Valuation is estimated in a range of reasonable outcomes. Sensitivity analysis is based on 20 per cent shift in market values.

3) Sensitivity for debt securities is generally quantified as shift in market values of 5 per cent except for credit opportunity 10 per cent and for distressed debt and structured credits 15 per cent.

4) Shift in implied volatility by 10 per cent.

5) Sensitivity analysis is based on a shift in market values of hedge funds 5 per cent, private equity of 20 per cent, structured credits 15 per cent.

6) Sensitivity from a shift of investment properties/real estate funds market values of 10 per cent and infrastructure/infrastructure funds market values of 20 per cent.

7) The sensitivity show changes in the value of the insurance holdings which do not at all times affect the P/L of the group since any surplus in the traditional life portfolios are consumed first.

Development of exposures and ECL allowances by stage

In the third quarter 2022, the continued strengthening of EUR and, in particular, USD against SEK led to higher gross exposures and ECL allowances in all stages. Currency effects were more pronounced in ECL allowances in Stage 3, however, the increase was offset by write-offs against reserves. Gross loans in stage 3 were stable at SEK 8.7bn (8.8), corresponding to 0.41 per cent of total loans (0.43). Stage 1 and 2 ECL allowances increased mainly from the further downward revisions to the macroeconomic scenarios, partly offset by a release of the oil portfolio model overlay.

Note 10, continued. Exposure and expected credit loss (ECL) allowances by stage

Measurement of ECL allowances

SEB uses models and expert credit judgement (ECJ) for calculating ECL allowances. The degree of expert credit judgement depends on model outcome, materiality and information available. ECJ may be applied to incorporate factors not captured by the models, either on counterparty or portfolio level.

Model overlays on portfolio level using ECJ are determined through top-down scenario analysis, including various scenarios of risk migration of complete portfolios. This is combined with bottom-up individual customer analysis of larger corporate customers and analysis and stress tests of sectors specifically exposed to the economic distress, including supply chain issues, higher energy prices and inflation risks. The model overlays are reevaluated quarterly in connection with the assessment of ECL allowances.

In the third quarter, the portfolio model overlays decreased from SEK 2bn to SEK 1.9bn, as the model overlay for the oil portfolio was fully released. Of the remaining model overlays, SEK 0.8bn in the Corporate & Private Customers division, SEK 0.6bn is in the Large Corporates & Financial Institutions division, SEK 0.4bn in the Baltic division and SEK 0.1bn in the Private Wealth Management & Family Office division. These model overlays have been made mainly to reflect the risks from higher energy prices, supply chain issues and inflation.

Key macroeconomic variable assumptions for calculating ECL allowances

Macroeconomic forecasts made by SEB's economic research department are used as the basis for the forward-looking information incorporated in the ECL measurement. Three scenarios – base, positive and negative - and their probability weightings are reviewed every quarter, or more frequently when appropriate due to rapid or significant changes in the economic environment.

In the base scenario, 2023 global GDP forecast has been revised downwards due to a worsening energy crisis pressuring households and businesses and rising inflation forcing central banks to continue hiking key rates. Western Europe is expected to enter a mild recession with near-zero growth in 2023 following a consumption-driven slowdown starting during the fall of 2022. There are still post-pandemic savings buffers that can be used for pent-up consumption needs, global supply chain disruptions are easing and the labour markets have been very resilient so far. In the short-term, energy prices are contributing to significant upward revisions of inflation forecasts in Europe. However, central banks in Western Europe are expected to end their hiking cycles at around 2-3 per cent in early 2023. Rising unemployment and modest long-term inflation expectations will create room for interest rate cuts further ahead, supporting a cautious recovery during 2024. A further description of the scenarios is available in the Nordic Outlook update published in August 2022.

The note continues on the next page

Note 10, continued. Exposure and expected credit loss (ECL) allowances by stage

The table below sets out the key assumptions of the base scenario.

Base scenario assumptions 2022 2023 2024
Global GDP growth 3.1% 2.6% 4.0%
OECD GDP growth 2.4% 0.9% 2.2%
Sweden
GDP growth 2.6% 0.0% 1.7%
Household consumption expenditure growth 1.6% -0.9% 2.0%
Interest rate (STIBOR) 2.25% 2.35% 1.80%
Residential real estate price growth -8.0% -4.0% 2.0%
Baltic countries
GDP growth 1.2% - 2.5% 0.5% - 1.3% 3.5% - 3.7%
Household consumption expenditure growth 2.0% - 5.1% 0.0% - 1.0% 3.0% - 4.0%
Inflation rate 16.5% - 18.2% 6.0% - 9.9% 1.6% - 2.5%
Nominal wage growth 6.5% - 12.2% 7.5% - 8.5% 6.5% - 7.5%
Unemployment rate 5.8% - 6.9% 6.8% - 7.1% 6.0% - 6.8%

The negative scenario assumes a deepening energy crisis in Europe. A widespread energy rationing in the winter could lead to a much deeper recession than the base scenario. The upside potential is limited and a faster end to the Russia-Ukraine war or unexpectedly strong adaptability in Western Europe could be part of such a scenario. It is also conceivable that the strength of the downturn in inflation over a longer period is underestimated.

The probability for the base scenario was lowered from 60 to 55 per cent, while the probability for the negative scenario was maintained at 30 per cent and the probability for the positive scenario was raised from 10 to 15 per cent. The scenario probabilities were adjusted after the publication of the Nordic Outlook in August 2022, referred to above.

The update of the macroeconomic parameters and scenario weights led to an increase of total ECL allowances in the third quarter 2022. Should the positive and negative scenarios be assigned 100 per cent probability, the model calculated ECL allowances would decrease by 4 per cent and increase by 6 per cent respectively compared to the probability-weighted calculation.

SEB's measurement of ECL allowances and related assumptions according to IFRS 9 can be found on pages 120-121 and 152-153 in the Annual and Sustainability Report 2021.

Note 16 Average risk-weight

The following table summarises average risk-weights (risk exposure amount divided by exposure at default, EAD) for exposures, where the risk exposure amount is calculated according to the internal ratings based (IRB) approach. Repos and securities lending transactions are excluded from the analysis, since they carry low risk-weights, and can vary considerably in volume, thus making numbers less comparable.

1) Comparative figures for 2021 have been restated for amortization of premium or discount for bonds in the trading book and liquidity portfolio, which was previously presented within Net financial income, is now presented in Interest income.

2) The new Swedish risk tax on banks is presented in Interest expense in the parent company.

3) Under the current conditions it is not viable for SEB to maintain operations in Russia, and SEB has therefore started scaling these down. This will be done in a responsible and orderly manner and in accordance with regulatory and legal obligations. The Russian Federation has limited different transactions between subsidiaries in Russia with parent companies in unfriendly countries, and limited the amount that may be transferred abroad to a maximum of an aggregated sum of RUB 10m per calendar month. Due to the prevailing uncertainty, an impairment loss of SEK 652m was recognised in Q3. During the first quarter 2022, the parent company recognised impairment losses of SEK 63m for the investment in SEB Corporate Bank in Ukraine and SEK 177m for SEB Bank in Russia. In addition, during the third quarter the subsidiary Skandinaviska Enskilda Ltd, which is being liquidated, was written down by 515m. During the second quarter 2022, the parent company recognised impairment losses of SEK 5,224m for the investment in the subsidiary DSK Hyp AG. In total, impairment losses of SEK 1,911m was recognised for the investment in DSK Hyp AG during 2021.

THIS IS A TRANSLATION FROM THE SWEDISH ORIGINAL

Auditor's review report

To the Board of Directors in Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ), 502032-9081

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ) as at September 30, 2022 and for the nine-month period ending as at this date. The Board of Directors, the President and the Chief Executive Officer are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim 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 Financial Statements 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 differs from and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing 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 condensed 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 in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies regarding the Parent Company.
