We are a universal bank with a 200-year history of supporting and growing the Nordic economies – enabling dreams and aspirations for a greater good. Every day, we work to support our customers' financial development, delivering best-in-class omnichannel customer experiences and driving sustainable change. The Nordea share is listed on the Nasdaq Helsinki, Nasdaq Copenhagen and Nasdaq Stockholm exchanges. Read more about us at nordea.com.
The second quarter saw the most volatile markets for some time. Concerns over higher trade tariffs and increasing geopolitical tensions resulted in significant financial market turmoil. Despite the external pressures, overall sentiment among Nordic households and businesses remained calm, with customer activity increasing in most areas as the quarter progressed.
Global trade volatility clearly presents risks. However, the Nordic economies are better positioned than many to manage through periods of turmoil. We also expect the lower inflation and interest rates to further support increasing activity levels as confidence returns.
In this environment, Nordea delivered another strong performance. We grew business volumes and achieved high profitability, with a return on equity of 16.2%. The result underlines our position as a resilient, market-leading financial services group. It also keeps us firmly on track to meet our full-year guidance.
Total income in the quarter was EUR 2.9 billion, a year-onyear decrease of 4%. As expected, net interest income was lower in the declining interest rate environment, but was otherwise resilient, supported by higher lending and deposit volumes as well as our deposit hedge contribution. Net fee and commission income growth slowed, impacted by the financial market turmoil early in the quarter.
Mortgage lending increased by 6% year on year, driven by Norway and Sweden. We grew retail deposits by 8%, including the contribution from our acquisition in Norway. Corporate lending and deposits also saw strong growth, with both up 5% year on year.
Costs increased by 4%, in line with our plan. We continued our strategic investments in key areas – including technology, data and AI – that will support future income growth, profitability and overall resilience. We don't plan to increase investment levels this year, and therefore expect year-on-year cost growth to slow significantly after the summer, and fullyear costs to grow by no more than 2% to 2.5%, excluding foreign exchange effects. Our cost-to-income ratio for the second quarter was 46.1%. Operating profit was EUR 1.6bn, stable quarter on quarter.
Our credit quality remains exceptionally strong. Net loan losses and similar net result for the quarter amounted to a reversal of EUR 21m. Given the continued strength of our credit portfolio, we released a further EUR 60m from our management judgement buffer, which now stands at EUR 341m.
In Personal Banking we delivered solid growth in lending and deposit volumes. With an exceptionally good performance in June, we further strengthened our position in Sweden, where we also took more share of the mortgage market. App users and mobile logins were up 7% and 6%, respectively, year on
year. We also launched new digital features, including a financial health check in the app to help customers improve their financial well-being.
Q2
In Business Banking we grew lending volumes by 4%, primarily in Sweden and Norway, with indications of higher activity levels. Deposit growth was strong, 10% year on year, with solid contributions across all Nordic countries. Supporting our ambition to become the leading digital bank for small and medium-sized enterprises, we enhanced our digital services with new tools and piloted our new Business Insights solution to support daily banking.
In Large Corporates & Institutions we drove strong lending growth, with volumes up 4% year on year, or 6% when adjusted for foreign exchange effects, pointing to optimism among Nordic businesses in the uncertain environment. We were active in supporting customers with equity financing and debt issuance, while the overall corporate financing market remained subdued, with volatility and uncertainty postponing deal-making. We also saw an increase in demand for shorterterm liquidity financing as corporates continued to focus on retaining financial flexibility.
In Asset & Wealth Management business momentum remained strong in our Nordic channels. We had net inflows of EUR 2.0bn in Private Banking and EUR 1.2bn in Life & Pension. Net flows from international institutions were lower following two strong quarters with inflows from larger mandates, and wholesale distribution net flows continued to stabilise. Assets under management increased by 9% year on year, to EUR 437bn, while asset management fees were lower in the quarter, impacted by the financial market volatility in April. In Denmark, we were named Commercial Pension Company of the Year by EY and FinansWatch.
Our capital position remains strong, supported by robust capital generation. Our CET1 ratio stood at 15.6% at the end of the second quarter, down slightly on the first quarter after deductions for the latest share buy-back programme.
In summary, this was another solid quarter for Nordea, and we remain on track to deliver a return on equity of above 15%, consistent with the target we set three years ago. Our performance so far this year clearly highlights the strength of our well-diversified business model and structurally improved profitability. It also reflects the advantages of operating in the strong and stable Nordic markets, home to globally competitive businesses and a powerful entrepreneurial spirit.
We look forward to presenting our strategy for 2026 and beyond at our Capital Markets Day in London on 5 November. We will share the concrete steps we are taking to build on our successful foundation, with continued focus on our four home markets. This will enable us to outgrow the market, continue delivering market-leading return on equity, and achieve superior earnings per share growth.
Frank Vang-Jensen President and Group CEO

Nordea's financial outlook for 2025 is a return on equity of above 15%.
A management buffer of 150bp above the regulatory CET1 requirement.
Nordea's dividend policy stipulates a dividend payout ratio of 60–70%, applicable to profit for the financial year. Nordea will continuously assess the opportunity to use share buy-backs as a tool to distribute excess capital.

3 Including the result for the period.

The global economy grew by 0.6% in the first quarter of 2025, according to the World Bank. Economic growth picked up in Europe, slowed in China and fell in the US. Activity indicators point to flat growth prospects in the second quarter of 2025 amid a slowdown in global trade and cautious consumer and business behaviour. The outlook remains highly uncertain due to geopolitical risks and global trade tensions.
Central banks continued to reduce their financial asset holdings during the second quarter. The European Central Bank lowered each of its three key interest rates by 0.25 percentage points in both April and June. The deposit facility rate now stands at 2.0%. Amid a solid labour market, elevated inflation, and uncertainty about the economic outlook, the Federal Reserve kept the federal funds rate at 4.5% over the quarter.
The second quarter of 2025 saw significant volatility across financial markets, linked to tariff tensions and geopolitics. Global equities dipped sharply after the "Liberation Day" tariff announcement on 2 April. The US administration subsequently softened its trade policy, and markets recovered strongly, helped by robust corporate earnings and rate cut expectations. The US S&P 500 index was up 10.6% over the quarter, the STOXX Europe 600 was up 1.4%, and the NASDAQ OMX Nordic 120 was down 1.2%. The US 10-year Treasury yield was unchanged over the quarter, while Germany's 10-year Bund yield fell by 0.1 percentage points. The euro strengthened by 8.5% versus the US dollar.
Danish GDP fell by 1.3% quarter on quarter in the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to a contraction in the pharmaceutical industry. Excluding this, the Danish economy expanded by 0.4%. Consumer confidence has improved, but is still markedly below the historical average. Business sentiment remains at a solid level. Since the beginning of 2024, the unemployment rate has remained unchanged at 2.9%. House and apartment prices were up 5.3% and 8.4%, respectively, year on year in the first quarter of 2025. Year-on-year consumer price inflation stood at 1.9% in June 2025. Danmarks Nationalbank cut its policy rate by 0.25 percentage points in both April and June, lowering it to 1.60%, following similar moves by the European Central Bank.
Finnish GDP remained stable quarter on quarter in the first quarter of 2025. Private consumption and net exports increased while investments and public consumption were down on the previous quarter. Residential construction investments have flattened out at a very low level. Heightened unemployment is keeping consumer confidence at a moderate level and household savings rates remain elevated. The unemployment rate was 8.8% in May, down from 9.1% in February. The housing market recovery is continuing, and transactions have been increasing since the summer of 2024. Housing prices were 1.3% lower in May 2025 than in the same month last year. Inflation remains moderate despite a VAT rate hike. Year-on-year harmonised consumer price inflation stood at 1.9% in June.
Norwegian mainland GDP increased by 1.0% quarter on quarter in the first quarter of 2025, supported by private consumption. The unemployment rate increased to 2.1% on a seasonally adjusted basis in May and remained unchanged in June. Housing prices were up 5% year on year in June. Consumer price inflation has decreased: headline consumer price inflation stood at 3.0% in June and underlying inflation, excluding energy and taxes, stood at 3.1%. Norges Bank cut its policy rate by 25bp in June, to 4.25%. The Norwegian krone strengthened against the US dollar in the second quarter, but somewhat weakened against the euro.
Swedish GDP fell by 0.2% quarter on quarter in the first quarter of 2025. The downturn was due to lower domestic demand. Exports, on the other hand, rose. Demand for labour continued to be modest and the unemployment rate remained elevated at 9.0% in May. House prices were down 0.5% and apartment prices were up 0.5% year on year in June. Yearon-year consumer price inflation (CPIF) stood at 2.8% in June. Sveriges Riksbank lowered the policy rate by 0.25 percentage points, to 2.00%, in June, and continued to scale back its balance sheet. The trade-weighted Swedish krona remained unchanged in the second quarter.

Q2/Q2: Net interest income decreased by 6%, as expected, driven by lower deposit and equity margins, due to reduced policy rates, and lower lending margins.

Q2/Q1: Net interest income decreased by 2%, driven by lower deposit and equity margins and lower lending margins.

Q2/Q2: Total operating expenses were up 4% (3% in local currencies), in line with Nordea's plan. Of this, 2 percentage points was driven by strategic investments in key areas, including technology, data and AI. Annual salary inflation and running costs for the recent acquisition in Norway also contributed to the increase. Exchange rate effects had a negative impact of EUR 17m.
Q2/Q1: Total operating expenses were down 2%. The decrease was mainly driven by lower regulatory fees and other expenses. These were partly offset by annual salary inflation and negative exchange rate effects of EUR 9m.

Credit quality remains exceptionally strong. Both individual and collective provisions were low in the second quarter. Management judgement allowances were reduced, as lower interest rates and inflation had resulted in lower credit risk and lower provisions for both corporate and household exposures.
Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to a reversal of EUR 21m (2bp). Net loan losses and similar net result for the second quarter of 2025 was lower than a year ago, and lower than in the previous quarter (net loan losses of EUR 13m or 1bp).
Main drivers of loan losses and similar net result Net loan losses relating to individually assessed exposures amounted to EUR 56m and were driven by low new provisions for corporate exposures, with no specific industry concentration. No individual provision exceeded EUR 10m. Losses in the retail portfolio remained low.
Collectively calculated provisions decreased by EUR 74m, mainly driven by a reduction in management judgement allowances. Overall changes in modelled provisions due to changes in the macroeconomic outlook and underlying changes in credit quality were slightly positive. In the first quarter Nordea had responded to the potentially worsening macroeconomic outlook by applying a 100% weighting to the adverse scenario due to escalated trade tensions. This weighting was maintained in the second quarter.
The revaluation of the portfolio reported at fair value, including Nordea Kredit's mortgage portfolio, resulted in an improvement of EUR 3m.
Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to EUR 1m in Asset & Wealth Management. There were net reversals of EUR 1m in Business Banking, EUR 4m in Personal Banking and EUR 14m in Large Corporates & Institutions.
The management judgement allowances were increased significantly in 2020 in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, and have remained at substantial levels to address risks relating to the unstable geopolitical and macroeconomic environment. Since the pandemic, the allowances have been reduced in line with the updated assessment of the credit risk outlook for the corporate and retail portfolios (as in this quarter).
However, substantial management judgement allowances remain due to continued elevated macroeconomic uncertainty and evolving geopolitical risks. Following the release of EUR 60m, total management judgement allowances amounted to EUR 341m at the end of the quarter.
See Notes 10 and 11 for further details.
Lending to the public excluding reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing amounted to EUR 335bn at the end of the quarter, up 2% in local currencies on the previous quarter.
Q2
Loans to the public measured at fair value excluding reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing amounted to EUR 52bn, unchanged from the previous quarter. The fair value portfolio mainly comprises Danish mortgage lending.
Lending to the public measured at amortised cost before allowances was down EUR 1bn on the previous quarter and amounted to EUR 284bn. Of this, 93% was classified as stage 1, 6% as stage 2 and 1% as stage 3 (all unchanged from the previous quarter). Quarter on quarter, stage 1 and stage 2 loans were unchanged and stage 3 loans increased by 5%.
The coverage ratio for stage 2 was 1.8%, down from 2.1% in the previous quarter, mainly due to the management judgement release. The coverage ratio for stage 3 was 32%, down from 34%. The reduction was driven by higher exposures in stage 3 for defaulted customers with strong collateral. The fair value impairment rate was 0.59%, up from 0.58% in the previous quarter.

Nordea maintained a strong CET1 capital ratio in line with its capital policy in the second quarter of 2025 (15.6%, compared with 15.7% in the first quarter).
The Group's CET1 capital decreased by EUR 0.3bn, driven by a EUR 250m deduction for the share buy-back programme launched in June, and foreign exchange effects in retained earnings. These were partly offset by strong capital generation. The CET1 regulatory requirement remained unchanged at 13.7% in the second quarter of 2025.
The risk exposure amount (REA) decreased by EUR 1.1bn, mainly due to foreign exchange effects and improved credit quality. These were partly offset by higher corporate lending volumes and a change in the capital treatment, from internal ratings-based to standardised, for certain portfolios not part of the non-retail model application in April. The additional REA of EUR 0.7bn for the changed capital treatment was reported as an Article 3 buffer.
The Group's Tier 1 capital ratio in the second quarter was 17.5% (17.6%). The total capital ratio in the second quarter was 20.0% (20.2%).
At the end of the second quarter CET1 capital amounted to EUR 24.7bn, Tier 1 capital amounted to EUR 27.7bn, and own funds amounted to EUR 31.7bn.
The Group's subordinated minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) ratio was 29.1% of the REA and 8.2% of the leverage ratio exposure (LRE), compared with the requirements of 27.0% of the REA (capped) and 7.0% of the LRE.
The total MREL ratio was 34.6% of the REA and 9.8% of the LRE, compared with the requirements of 31.9% of the REA and 7.0% of the LRE.
The leverage ratio remained stable at 4.9%.

Nordea maintains a strong capital position in line with its capital policy. Nordea targets a management buffer of 150bp above the regulatory CET1 requirement. This reflects Nordea's strong capital generation and enables the Group to manage capital efficiently while maintaining a prudent buffer above requirements. Nordea's ambition is to distribute 60– 70% of the net profit for the year to shareholders. Excess capital will be used for organic growth and strategic business acquisitions, as well as being subject to buy-back considerations.
Q2
On 22 May Nordea completed the buy-back programme announced in March 2025. On 12 June 2025 Nordea's Board of Directors decided on a new share buy-back programme, of up to EUR 250 million. The programme commenced on 16 June 2025 and will end no later than 30 September 2025.
On 26 June, as part of its annual macroprudential decision, the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA) decided to fully reciprocate the Norwegian systemic risk buffer (SyRB) of 4.5%, from 1 October 2025 onwards. This follows a decision to partially reciprocate the Norwegian SyRB at a level of 3.5% in June 2023. The full reciprocation will result in an increase of approximately 20bp in the CET1 requirement for Nordea. Nordea does not agree with the decision to increase the Group's capital requirements in this manner. As part of its decision, the Finnish FSA also decided to maintain the 1.0% Finnish SyRB and the 2.5% O-SII buffer for Nordea.

Nordea issued approximately EUR 5.1bn in long-term funding in the second quarter of 2025 (excluding Danish covered bonds and long-dated certificates of deposit), of which approximately EUR 2.6bn was issued as senior debt and EUR 2.5bn was issued in the form of covered bonds. Notable transactions during the quarter included a EUR 1bn 5-year senior preferred bond, JPY 53.5bn in multi-tranche senior non-preferred and senior preferred notes, a green CHF 175m 7-year senior non-preferred bond, and NOK 6bn in senior non-preferred notes, of which NOK 2.7bn was issued in green format. Furthermore, Nordea also issued a SEK 6bn 5.7-year covered bond and a NOK 7bn 5-year covered bond.
At the end of the second quarter long-term funding accounted for approximately 79% of Nordea's total wholesale funding.
Short-term liquidity risk is measured using several metrics, including the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR). The Nordea Group's combined LCR was 163% at the end of the second quarter. The liquidity buffer is composed of highly liquid central bank eligible securities and cash, as defined in the LCR regulation. At the end of the second quarter the liquidity buffer amounted to EUR 122bn, compared with EUR 121bn at the end of the first quarter. The net stable funding ratio (NSFR) measures long-term liquidity risk. At the end of the first quarter Nordea's NSFR was 123.4%, compared with 125.0% at the end of the first quarter.

Market risk in the trading book measured by value at risk (VaR) was EUR 32m. Quarter on quarter, VaR decreased by EUR 1.6m, primarily as a result of lower interest rate risk. Interest rate risk remained the main driver of VaR at the end of the second quarter. Trading book VaR continues to be driven by market risk related to Nordic and other Northern European exposures.

On 6 March 2025 Nordea announced a share buy-back programme of up to EUR 250m, based on the authorisation granted to the Board by the 2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM). The programme was launched on 10 March 2025 and completed on 22 May 2025. During that period Nordea repurchased 21,011,951 of its own shares at an average price per share of EUR 11.89.
On 12 June 2025 Nordea's Board of Directors decided on a new share buy-back programme, of up to EUR 250m. The programme commenced on 16 June 2025 and will end no later than 30 September 2025. Nordea's share buy-backs are aimed at maintaining an efficient capital structure and supporting shareholder returns.
Nordea cancelled aggregated amounts of 10,307,077 and 10,704,874 treasury shares in April and June, respectively. The shares had been held for capital optimisation purposes and acquired through buy-backs.
On 5 May 2025 Nordea transferred 916 own shares held by the company to settle its commitments to participants in its variable remuneration programmes. The transfer was based on the resolution of the Board of Directors announced on 29 January 2025.
In accordance with its strategy, Nordea is focusing on its business in the Nordic region. This has entailed the Group winding down its operations in Russia. The liquidation of the remaining Russian subsidiary is pending finalisation.

In Personal Banking we offer household customers easy and convenient everyday banking and advice for all stages of life. We are committed to supporting their financial well-being with a comprehensive and attractive range of financial products and services, along with a great customer experience.
In the second quarter we delivered solid growth and further strengthened our digital offering. Total lending volumes grew by 5% year on year and deposit volumes were up 7% including the contribution from our recent acquisition in Norway. Excluding the acquisition, lending was stable and deposits were up 4%.
Despite the market turbulence, customer savings and investment activity increased as the quarter progressed. Monthly savings amounts were up 24% year on year. Housing markets continued to show signs of recovery, with demand for new loan promises higher than a year ago. In Sweden, we took more share of the mortgage market and had an exceptionally strong June.
In the uncertain environment more customers have been seeking advice related to personal finances. Customer interactions within digital channels continued to increase and app users and logins were up 7% and 6%, respectively, year on year. We also secured 19% and 5% year-on-year increases in digitally generated leads for mortgage advisers in Denmark and Sweden, respectively, helping our advisers deliver even better customer experiences.
We strengthened our digital self-service offering, launching new features in the app to support customer experience and financial well-being. Customers can now transfer money from another bank directly to their Nordea account without needing the other bank's app. They can also use our new financial health check feature to receive guidance on how to improve their financial situation.
In June we launched a discounted non-secured heat pump loan with Enwell in Sweden as part of our broader commitment to promote home energy efficiency improvements. Customer interest in our ESG product offering remained strong, with the ESG share of gross inflows into funds high at 34%.
Total income in the second quarter decreased by 2% year on year, showing resilience despite significantly lower rates. Lower deposit income was partly offset by higher lending income, higher net fee and commission income and the deposit hedge contribution.
Net interest income decreased by 4%, driven by lower deposit margins. These were partly offset by higher lending margins; higher deposit and lending volumes, including the Norwegian acquisition; and the deposit hedge contribution.
Net fee and commission income increased by 6% year on year, mainly driven by higher payment and card income and higher savings income.
Q2

In Business Banking we provide small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with banking and advisory products and services both online and in person.
Business Banking also includes the product and specialist units Transaction Banking and Nordea Finance, which provide payment and transaction services and asset-based lending and receivables finance, respectively.
We are a trusted financial partner, providing competent advice and developing digital solutions to support sustainable growth for our customers.
In the second quarter we delivered solid growth and continued to improve customer experience. Lending volume growth accelerated to 4%, driven in particular by Sweden. Deposit volumes were up 10% year on year in local currencies, with all countries contributing. Due to the macroeconomic uncertainty, equity capital market activity was subdued.
Overall customer satisfaction increased across markets. We further improved service quality, focusing efforts on enhancing awareness of our self-service options. With the migration to Nordea Business complete, customers across the Nordics can now benefit from a unified self-service experience combined with easy access to expert advice.
Supporting our ambition to become the leading digital bank for small and medium-sized businesses, we continued to develop Nordea Business. This quarter, we enhanced the online financing application flow and introduced a new tool making it easier for customers to select the right product for their needs. Customers in Norway can now also use the platform to apply for a green business loan online.
In June we launched an initial pilot of our Business Insights concept in Sweden. Once fully available, the service will help Nordic small business customers manage their liquidity and cash flows, making daily banking more convenient.
We continued to support customers in transitioning to more sustainable business models while meeting increasing stakeholder demands. During the quarter we engaged in sustainability-themed meetings with more than 700 customers. Demand for our sustainable financing continues to grow, with the portfolio now accounting for 14% of total lending.
Total income in the second quarter decreased by 6% year on year, with higher volumes partly offsetting lower deposit margins and lower net result from items at fair value.
Net interest income decreased by 8% year on year due to lower deposit margins amid decreases in policy rates. These were partly offset by growth in business volumes.
Net fee and commission income was stable year on year, as higher lending fee income was offset by lower income from equity capital market transactions.
Net result from items at fair value decreased by 1% year on year. The decrease was due to derivative income normalising after being elevated in the same quarter last year.
Total expenses increased by 7% year on year (5% in local currencies), driven by strategic investments in key areas, including technology, data and AI, and annual salary inflation. The cost-to-income ratio with amortised resolution fees was 46%, compared with 40% a year ago, reflecting the lower deposit income and higher investment expenditure.
Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to net reversals of EUR 1m (0bp), compared with net losses of EUR 28m a year ago. The amount included EUR 23m released from the management judgement buffer.
Operating profit decreased by 9% year on year, to EUR 454m, driven primarily by lower deposit income and higher investment expenditure. Return on allocated equity with amortised resolution fees was 16%.

In Large Corporates & Institutions (LC&I) we provide financial solutions to large Nordic corporate and institutional customers. We also provide services to customers across the Nordea Group through the product and specialist units Markets and Investment Banking & Equities and our international corporate branches.
We are a leading bank for large corporate and institutional customers in the Nordics and a leading player within sustainable finance.
We offer a focused and dedicated range of products and services covering financing, cash management and payments, as well as investment banking and capital markets solutions.
In the second quarter we delivered strong lending growth and actively supported our Nordic customers with their financing needs, leveraging our well-diversified business portfolio.
We supported our customers through the financial market volatility. While we saw fewer event-driven transactions, we actively engaged with clients to provide them with additional liquidity financing. Lending volumes were up 4% year on year. Deposit volumes were slightly down.
Debt Capital Markets activity remained high and was well diversified among both corporate and institutional customers. Nordea's strong customer focus helped us maintain our leading positions for Nordic corporate bonds and Nordic bonds overall year to date. For Equity Capital Markets and Mergers & Acquisitions, we led the way in the initial public offering (IPO) market despite challenging market sentiment, with volatility and uncertainty postponing deal-making. Transaction highlights of the quarter included a EUR 7bn issue for the European Union and the IPOs of GRK and Enity. We also advised on KKR's public offer for Biotage.
Nordea Markets supported clients' needs well amid traderelated uncertainty driven by US tariff measures. Volatility across equity, foreign exchange and bond markets gradually moderated as the quarter progressed. Our risk management remained robust.
We remain a leading platform for sustainable advisory services. During the quarter we facilitated an additional EUR 16bn in sustainable financing, bringing the total to EUR 202bn and reaching our target of EUR 200bn ahead of time. We also continue to improve our staff training, operating processes and data foundation. By the end of the quarter we had maintained our number one positions for Nordic corporate sustainable bonds and Nordic sustainable bonds overall.
Total income was down 8% year on year, driven by lower net interest income and net result from items at fair value.
Net interest income decreased by 11% year on year due to the impact of lower interest rates, which was partly offset by higher lending volumes.
Net fee and commission income was down 2% year on year with limited event-driven business, notably corporate finance, due to continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty.
Net result from items at fair value decreased by 6% year on year. Customer activity remained high while market making income was lower.
Total expenses increased by 1% year on year amid strict cost control. We continued with our strategic investments in key areas, including technology, data and AI. The cost-to-income ratio with amortised resolution fees was 42%, compared with 39% a year ago.
Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to net reversals of EUR 14m, compared with EUR 0m in the same quarter last year. The amount included a EUR 20m release from the management judgement buffer.
Operating profit amounted to EUR 333m, a year-on-year decrease of 10%, mainly due to lower income.
We continued to exercise solid capital discipline. Return on allocated equity was 15%, down 2 percentage points on the same quarter last year.

In Asset & Wealth Management we provide Nordic private banking customers and international institutional and wholesale customers with market-leading products and services.
Asset & Wealth Management also includes the product and specialist units Asset Management and Life & Pension.
In the second quarter we drove strong business momentum in our Nordic channels and maintained a solid investment performance. Private Banking customer acquisition was solid and customer satisfaction in our Nordic home markets remained high, including for those who joined us through our recent acquisition in Norway. We showed resilience amid the market turmoil in April, although net fee and commission income was affected.
In our Nordic channels we attracted new flows of EUR 2.0bn in Private Banking and EUR 1.2bn in Life & Pension. Norwegian pension flows were positive following outflows in the previous quarter. In Sweden, we delivered high net flows, supported by our strong offering for private banking customers and leading position in the pension transfer market. In Finland, we had a high customer intake and strong net flows, while in Denmark we drove good business momentum.
Net flows in our international channels were lower after two exceptionally strong quarters, and amounted to EUR -0.4bn. Net flows in international institutions amounted to EUR -0.6bn. Flows in the higher margin wholesale distribution channel continued to stabilise, totalling EUR 0.2bn for the quarter.
Overall investment performance was solid, with 68% of aggregated composites providing excess return on a threeyear basis. In June our strong distribution power and high quality asset management franchise were reflected in an even higher annual ranking in Investment & Pensions Europe's Top 500 Asset Managers. We also won the 2025 Environmental Finance sustainable investment awards for environmental fund of the year and global and social fund of the year with our Global Climate and Environment Fund and Global Diversity Engagement Fund, respectively. By the end of the quarter 75% of total assets under management were in ESG products.
We continued to deliver on our strategic objective to be a digital leader within savings and investments. During the quarter we made several key enhancements to our platform, including introducing self-service onboarding for Norway's most widely used investment accounts to simplify the investment journey for our customers.
In Denmark, we reached a major milestone in the integration of Topdanmark Life by successfully completing the IT system separation and were named Commercial Pension Company of the Year by Finanswatch and EY for the second year in a row.
Total income in the second quarter was down 6% year on year, driven by lower net interest income and net fee and commission income.
Net interest income was down 10% year on year, driven by lower interest rates.
Net fee and commission income was down 5% year on year due to average assets under management being impacted by market volatility at the start of the quarter and customer preference for lower-risk and lower-margin products.
Net insurance result amounted to EUR 23m, compared with EUR 30m a year ago. The decrease was driven by higher claims.
Net result from items at fair value amounted to EUR 16m, compared with EUR 9m a year ago. The increase was driven by lower funding costs in Life & Pension.
Total expenses increased by 4% year on year (3% in local currencies), driven by strategic investments in key areas, including technology, data and AI, and annual salary inflation. The cost-to-income ratio with amortised resolution fees increased by 4 percentage points, to 43%.
Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to EUR 1m, compared with EUR 3m in the same quarter last year.
Operating profit in the second quarter was EUR 186m, down 11% year on year. Return on allocated equity with amortised resolution fees was 33%, a year-on-year decrease of 9 percentage points, driven by increased capital requirements and lower operating profit.

Our Group functions provide the four business areas with the services, subject matter expertise, data and technology infrastructure needed for Nordea to be the preferred financial partner in the Nordics. The Group functions consist of Group Business Support; Group Technology; Chief of Staff Office; Group Brand, Communication and Marketing; Group Risk; Group Compliance; Group People; Group Legal; Group Finance and Group Internal Audit.
Together with the results of the business areas, the results of the Group functions add up to the reported result for the Group. Income primarily originates from Group Treasury. The majority of both costs and income in Group functions are distributed to the business areas.
In the second quarter we continued to deliver on our strategic priorities, including reducing operational risk, preventing financial crime and modernising our technology landscape. We maintained a strong focus on cost discipline while making targeted investments to enhance operational resilience and drive long-term improvements.
We also continued to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements to ensure an efficient and compliant operating model.
Total operating income in the second quarter amounted to EUR 41m, up from EUR 21m a year ago. The increase was mainly driven by higher net interest income and net result from items at fair value.
Net result from items at fair value amounted to EUR 12m, a year-on-year increase of EUR 8m.
Total operating expenses amounted to a positive EUR 8m, a year-on-year improvement of EUR 6m, due to a VAT refund.

the central bank or postal giro system is domiciled in the country where the institution is established
the balance on the account is readily available at any time.
Loans to credit institutions payable on demand include liquid assets not represented by bonds or other interest-bearing securities.

The consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as endorsed by the European Union (EU).
The report includes a condensed set of financial statements and is to be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. The accounting policies and methods of computation are unchanged from the 2024 Annual Report, except for those relating to the items presented in the section "Changed accounting policies and presentation" below. For more information, see the accounting policies in the 2024 Annual Report.
Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), were implemented by Nordea on 1 January 2025 but have not had any significant impact on its financial statements.
In April 2024 the IASB published the new standard IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 sets out the requirements for the presentation and disclosure of financial performance in financial statements, focusing on a more structured income statement, with defined subtotals. Income and expense items are split into five categories, based on main business activities. Of these, the categories operating, investing and financing are new. The categories income taxes and discontinued operations are as before. The aim is to ensure a structured summary of companies' primary financial statements and reduce variation in the reporting of financial performance, enabling users to better understand the information and more easily compare companies. IFRS 18 also introduces enhanced requirements for the aggregation and disaggregation of financial information in the primary financial statements and the notes, which may also impact the presentation on the balance sheet. In addition, the standard introduces new disclosures in a single note on certain profit or loss measures outside the financial statements (management-defined performance measures).
IFRS 18 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with earlier application permitted. The standard is not yet endorsed by the EU. Nordea does not currently intend to adopt the amendments before the effective date.
It is not yet possible to conclude on how IFRS 18 will impact Nordea's financial statements and disclosures of management-defined performance measures. There may be transfers between the different categories in the income statement mentioned above, and changes in the
aggregation and disaggregation of financial information in the income statement and on the balance sheet, but no significant impacts are currently expected. This tentative conclusion remains subject to further analysis. As IFRS 18 will not change Nordea's recognition and measurement, it is not expected to have any other significant impact on the company's financial statements or capital adequacy in the period of initial application.
In May 2024 the IASB published Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7).
The amendments clarify whether contractual cash flows of financial assets with contingent features, e.g. ESG-linked features, represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI), which is a condition for being measured at amortised cost. Under the amendments, certain financial assets, including those with ESG-linked features, can meet the SPPI criterion at initial recognition, provided that their cash flows are not significantly different from the cash flows of identical financial assets without such features. Additional disclosures on financial assets and financial liabilities with contingent features will also be required. The new requirements are expected to support Nordea's current accounting treatment of loans with ESG-linked features. They are not expected to have any significant impact on the company's financial statements or capital adequacy in the period of initial application, other than the introduction of the additional disclosures.
The amendments also clarify the characteristics of contractually linked instruments and non-recourse features. The current assessment is that these clarifications will not significantly impact the classification of financial assets or capital adequacy in the period of initial application, but this remains subject to further analysis and is naturally dependent on the instruments on Nordea's balance sheet at the time of transition.
Moreover, the amendments address the recognition and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, including an optional exception relating to the derecognition of financial liabilities settled using an electronic payment system. The current assessment is that this amendment will not significantly impact Nordea's financial statements or capital adequacy in the period of initial application, but this remains subject to further analysis.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026, with earlier application permitted. The amendments are endorsed by the EU.

The following changes in IFRSs not yet applied by Nordea are not assessed to have any significant impact on its financial statements or capital adequacy in the period of their initial application.

1 IFRS 8 requires information on revenues from transactions between operating segments. Nordea has defined intersegment revenues as internal interest
related to the funding of the reportable operating segments by the internal bank in Group Finance, included in "Other operating segments".
2 The volumes are only disclosed separately for operating segments if separately reported to the Chief Operating Decision-Maker (CODM). 3 Comparable figures have been restated to reflect updated plan exchange rates in the reporting to the CODM. See Note G2.1 in the 2024 Annual Report for further information.

Impact from plan exchange rates used in the segment reporting.
The measurement principles and allocation between operating segments follow the information reported to the Chief Operating Decision-Maker (CODM), as required by IFRS 8. In Nordea the CODM has been defined as the Chief Executive Officer, who is supported by the other members of the Group Leadership Team. The main difference compared with the section "Business areas" in this report is that the information in Note 2 is prepared using plan exchange rates, as this is the basis used in the reporting to the CODM.
Financial results are presented for the main business areas Personal Banking, Business Banking, Large Corporates & Institutions and Asset & Wealth Management. These are identified as reportable operating segments and are reported separately, as they are above the quantitative thresholds in IFRS 8. Other operating segments below the thresholds are included in "Other operating segments". Group functions (and eliminations), as well as the result that is not fully allocated to any of the operating segments, are shown separately as reconciling items.
There have been no changes in the basis of segmentation during the year.

Sensitivities The provisions are sensitive to rating migration even if staging triggers are not reached. The table below shows the impact on provisions of a one-notch downgrade of all exposures in the bank. It includes both the impact of the higher risk for all exposures and the impact of transferring exposures that reach the trigger from stage 1 to stage 2. It also includes the impact of exposures with one rating grade above default becoming default, which is estimated at EUR 34m (EUR 44m at the end of March 2025). This figure is based on calculations using the statistical model rather than individual estimates as would be the case in reality for material defaulted loans.

Forward-looking information is used for both assessing significant increases in credit risk and calculating expected credit losses. Nordea uses three macroeconomic scenarios: a baseline scenario, a favourable scenario and an adverse scenario. In the first quarter Nordea responded to the potentially worsening macroeconomic outlook resulting from escalated trade tensions by applying a 100% weighting to the adverse scenario. This weighting was maintained in the second quarter. The macroeconomic scenarios are provided by Group Risk in Nordea, based on the Oxford Economics Model. The forecast is a combination of modelling and expert judgement, subject to thorough checks and quality control processes. The model has been built to give a good description of the historical relationships between economic variables and to capture the key linkages between those variables. The forecast period in the model is ten years. For periods beyond, a long-term average is used in the ECL calculations.
The macroeconomic scenarios reflect Nordea's view of how the Nordic economies might develop in the light of continued geopolitical uncertainty, trade conflicts and weak growth in major European economies. When developing the scenarios and determining the relative weighting between them, Nordea took into account projections made by Nordic central banks, Nordea Research and the European Central Bank.
The baseline scenario is influenced by continued uncertainty over US trade policy, which has dampened the growth outlook for the Nordic economies. Denmark will see relatively high growth in 2025, driven by the pharmaceutical sector and the reopening of North Sea oil and gas fields. Finland and Sweden will see higher growth in 2025, supported by lower interest rates. The exception is Norway, where overall economic growth in the coming years is expected to be near zero due to falling investment in the offshore sector. Growth in the Norwegian mainland economy will continue at a modest pace.
Unemployment will be largely stable in the coming years. A modest recovery in home prices is expected to continue in the coming years, supported by rising household purchasing power. The risks around the baseline forecast are tilted to the downside, with the upside scenario deviating less from the baseline than the adverse.
Nordea's two alternative macroeconomic scenarios cover a range of plausible risk factors which may cause growth to deviate from the baseline scenario. An escalation of the trade conflict between the US and several countries could trigger a European and Nordic recession as firms postpone investments, exports slow down and households cut spending due to weakening labour markets. Central banks may in addition regard the inflationary impulse from higher tariffs as temporary and continue cutting interest rates, with rates moving lower than in the baseline scenario. Lower tariffs and an unwinding of trade policy uncertainty, on the other hand, may lead to a stronger recovery than assumed in the baseline scenario.
At the end of the second quarter of 2025 adjustments to model-based allowances/provisions amounted to EUR 376m, including management judgements. The management judgement allowances cover expected credit losses not yet adequately captured by the IFRS 9 modelled outcomes. During the quarter, allowance levels were reassessed and EUR 60m in local currencies was released as lower interest rates and inflation had resulted in lower credit risk and lower management judgement provisions for both corporate and household exposures. The management judgement allowances remain at high levels due to continued elevated macroeconomic uncertainty and evolving geopolitical risks. Total management judgement allowances amounted to EUR 341m at the end of the quarter.
During the second quarter Nordea continued to closely monitor and assess its direct exposure to Russian counterparties. At the end of the quarter the direct credit exposure after provisions was less than EUR 20m.

1All items are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the end of each reporting period.
During the period Nordea transferred "Interest-bearing securities" of EUR 1,667m from Level 1 to Level 2 and of EUR 3,262m from Level 2 to Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Furthermore, Nordea transferred "Debt securities in issue" of EUR 1,354m from Level 1 to Level 2 and of EUR 5,841m from Level 2 to Level 1. Nordea also transferred "Other liabilities" of EUR 133m from Level 1 to Level 2 and of EUR 76m from Level 2 to Level 1. The transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 were due to the instruments ceasing to be actively traded during the period, which meant that fair values were obtained using valuation techniques with observable market inputs. The transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 were due to the instruments again being actively traded during the period, which meant that quoted prices were obtained in the market. Transfers between levels are considered to have occurred at the end of the period.

Unrealised gains and losses relate to those assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period. The transfers out of Level 3 were due to observable market data becoming available. The transfers into Level 3 were due to observable market data no longer being available. Transfers between levels are considered to have occurred at the end of the reporting period. Fair value gains and losses in the income statement during the period are included in "Net result from items at fair value". Assets and liabilities related to derivatives are presented net.
For information about the valuation processes for fair value measurement in Level 3, see Note G3.4 "Fair value" in the 2024 Annual Report.
The transaction price for financial instruments in some cases differs from the fair value at initial recognition measured using a valuation model, mainly due to the fact that the transaction price is not established in an active market. If there are significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation technique (Level 3), the financial instrument is recognised at the transaction price and any difference between the transaction price and fair value at initial recognition measured using a valuation model (Day 1 profit) is deferred. For more information, see Note G3.4 "Fair value" in the 2024 Annual Report. The table below shows the aggregated difference yet to be recognised in the income statement at the beginning and end of the period. The table also shows a reconciliation of how this aggregated difference changed during the period (movement of deferred Day 1 profit).

1 Investments in financial instruments are a major part of the life insurance business, acquired to fulfil the obligations behind the insurance and investment
contracts. The gains or losses on these instruments are almost exclusively allocated to policyholders and consequently do not affect Nordea's equity. 2 Of which EUR 150m is priced at a credit spread (the difference between the discount rate and the XIBOR) of 1.45%. A reasonable change in this credit
spread would not affect the fair value due to callability features.
3 The fair values are based on prices and net asset values provided by external suppliers/custodians. The prices are fixed by the suppliers/custodians based on the development in the assets behind the investments. For private equity funds, the dominant measurement methodology used by the suppliers/ custodians is consistent with the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation (IPEV) guidelines issued by Invest Europe. Approximately 65% of the private equity fund investments are internally adjusted/valued based on the IPEV guidelines. These carrying amounts are in a range of 1% to 100% compared with the values received from suppliers/custodians.
4 The column "Range of fair value" shows the sensitivity of Level 3 financial instruments to changes in key assumptions. For more information, see Note G3.4 "Fair value" in the 2024 Annual Report.
5 Of which EUR 420m relates to assets in pooled schemes and unit-linked investment contracts.
Nordea is subject to various legal regimes and requirements, including but not limited to those of the Nordic countries, the European Union and the United States. The supervisory and governmental authorities administering and enforcing these regimes make regular enquiries and conduct investigations with regard to Nordea's compliance. Areas subject to investigation may include investment advice, anti-money laundering (AML), trade regulation and sanctions adherence, tax rules, competition law, consumer protection, governance, risk management and control. The outcome and timing of these enquiries and investigations are unclear and pending. Accordingly, it cannot be ruled out that these enquiries and investigations could lead to criticism against the bank, reputation loss, fines, sanctions, disputes and/or litigation.
In June 2015 the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority investigated how Nordea Bank Danmark A/S had followed the regulations regarding AML. The outcome resulted in criticism and, in accordance with Danish administrative practice, the matter was handed over to the police for further handling and possible sanctions. On 5 July 2024 the Danish National Special Crime Unit filed a formal charge against Nordea in the matter. As previously stated, Nordea has expected to be fined in Denmark for weak AML processes and procedures in the past and has made a provision for ongoing AML-related matters.
There is a risk that, in the event fines are issued by authorities or by final court decisions, the related costs could be higher (or potentially lower) than the current provision, and this could also impact Nordea's financial performance. Nordea believes that the current provision is adequate to cover these matters.
Within the framework of normal business operations, Nordea faces a number of operational and legal risks that could result in reputational impacts, fines, sanctions, disputes, remediation costs, losses and/or litigation. Specifically, Nordea faces potential claims related to the provision of banking and investment services and other areas in which it operates. Currently, such claims are mainly related to lending and insolvency situations, various investment services, and sub-custody and withholding taxation matters. At present, none of the current claims are considered likely to have any significant adverse effect on Nordea or its financial position.
Q2
There are significant risks related to the macroeconomic environment due to the ongoing geopolitical developments and trade tensions. Reduced consumer spending and lower activity may particularly impact small and mediumsized enterprises in certain industries. Depending on future developments, there may be increased credit risk in Nordea's portfolio. Furthermore, potential adverse impacts on income could arise due to financial market volatility and reduced banking activity impacting transaction volumes and customer activity. Potential future credit risks are addressed in Note 11 and the section "Net loan losses and similar net result".

To the Board of Directors of Nordea Bank Abp
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim financial information of Nordea Bank Group, which comprise the balance sheet as of 30 June 2025, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and condensed cash flow statement for the six-month-period then ended and notes, comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory notes. The interim financial information also comprises the parent company Nordea Bank Abp's balance sheet as of 30 June 2025, income statement for the six-month-period then ended and note with accounting policy information. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the condensed interim financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", and with regulations governing the preparation of interim financial information in Finland. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information 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 and consequently does 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.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim financial information of Nordea Bank Abp for the six months period ended on 30 June 2025 is not prepared, in all material respects, as regards the Group financial information, in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", and other regulation governing the presentation of interim financial information in Finland, and as regards the parent company financial information, in accordance with regulations governing the preparation of interim financial information in Finland.
