About Resurs Holding

Resurs Holding (Resurs), which operates through the subsidiaries Resurs Bank and Solid Försäkring, is the leader in retail finance in the Nordic region, offering payment solutions, consumer loans and niche insurance products. Since its start in 1977, Resurs Bank has established itself as a leading partner for sales-driven payment and loyalty solutions in retail and e-commerce, and Resurs has thus built a customer base of approximately 6 million private customers in the Nordics. Resurs Bank has had a banking licence since 2001 and is under the supervision of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority. The Resurs Group operates in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland. At the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Group had 735 employees and a loan portfolio of SEK 31.1 billion. Resurs is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm.

Our partners

We partner with a wide variety of major brands and help them prepare flexible payment options to make shopping easier.

Statement by the CEO Acceleration of digitalised retail and business-driven sustainability in focus

A new gear. The second quarter has passed and the process of transforming Resurs into a more competitive, sustainable and digital player has started to yield effects. During the second quarter, a number of sustainable partnerships were entered into, digital wallets were launched and our responsible credit lending has generated results. Our credit rating was also raised (BBB, stable outlook) as a result of an improved underlying Nordic consumer credit market and our strong position for attracting new partners. The situation in Norway is improving and society is increasingly opening up, particularly in the Danish and Norwegian markets, which were completely closed in the first quarter. Growth in lending excl. NPL sales increased 3 per cent year-on-year.

+3% Growth in lending excl. NPL sales

Operating income for the quarter declined 10 per cent year-on-year. Expenses were 3 per cent lower than last year, but the cost/income ratio increased as a result of lower income. Enhancing the efficiency of the operations and thus reducing the cost/income ratio is an important part of the ongoing transformation journey. Credit losses improved as a result of responsible credit lending. In total, operating profit fell 15 per cent year-on-year. However, compared with the first quarter of 2021, operating profit increased 4 per cent.

Strong in Sweden. The Swedish market reported strong growth in both Consumer Loans and Payment Solutions due to the continuing positive performance of existing partnerships and good utilisation of our customer database. In the second quarter, more than 85 per cent of new sales in Consumer Loans Sweden were to customers who are already in our database. Using our own database means that we can make better credit assessments by supplementing external data with internal data, which results in lower credit risk and lower acquisition costs and thus contributes to Resurs's

sustainable credit lending.

Positive tendencies in Norway. Lending volumes in the Norwegian market have fallen overall since the introduction of new legislation in the country in 2019. In 2021, we shrank less than the market as a whole in consumer loans – the largest product we offer in Norway.

We continued to report growth in new lending in the second quarter, although we can still see that customers are ending their loans in advance. To manage this, we are working in a variety of ways to improve the customer journey. For example, we launched Resurs Bank's app in Norway at the end of the second quarter.

Due to our clear Nordic focus and new agile work methods, we will be able to launch and develop our products and services to all markets at a faster pace moving forward.

Speaking of apps. We continued to see solid growth in the use of our Swedish app, with the number of downloads increasing 31 per cent between the first and second quarters of 2021. We are approaching a quarter of a million downloads since the app was launched in Q4 2020. Launches in Denmark and Finland are planned later this year.

+31%

Increase in number of downloads of our app between Q1 and Q2

Sustainable partnerships. In line with our strategy of offering sustainable credit solutions, we signed a partner agreement with mortgage institution Hemma, a platform for the transition to sustainable homes. Together with Hemma, we will be able to offer our customers the opportunity of investing in climate-smart solutions, with the condition that the consumer loan from Resurs is used for sustainable energy investments in the home.

Resurs Holding Interim Report Q2 2021

During the quarter, we broadened our offering of subscription solutions by entering into a partnership with Fairown in the Swedish and Norwegian markets. Together with Fairown, we can offer customers the option of subscribing for products in different industries, such as home electronics, construction, gardening and watches. The development of various types of subscription solutions involves both offering a smooth customer journey for our customers in addition to sustainability and the development of circular business models where older products can be exchanged and sold on the second-hand market.

During the quarter, we also completed our first comprehensive climate calculations according to the GHG Protocol, and this now forms the basis of our future action on reducing our impact on the environment and climate. We will present more about our updated sustainability strategy at our Capital Market Day in September.

Digital wallets for a smoother customer journey We have rolled out both Google Pay and Apple Pay – two in-demand payment services that make payments smoother and more secure – to our customers in the Nordic market. Adding a MasterCard from Resurs Bank to a digital wallet means that our customers can make secure and contactless payments via, for example, their mobile phone in stores or by verifying their identity on their mobile when they shop online or in apps. Accordingly, Resurs is taking yet another conscious step towards a more digital customer journey and positive customer experience.

2.3% Credit loss ratio Q2 2021

High credit quality a condition for sustainable development. Since we actively introduced austerity measures in our credit lending when the pandemic broke out, we have seen a positive development in the underlying credit quality of our portfolios, which can also be observed in the lower credit loss ratio compared with both last year and the preceding quarter. This positive development is clear in both Payment Solutions and Consumer Loans and in all of our Nordic markets.

During the quarter, we also signed an agreement with PRA Group, a leading international credit management company in nonperforming loans, to sell parts of our non-performing loans in Norway for a gross carrying amount of approximately NOK 800

million. The sale had a positive impact on Resurs Bank's capital requirements and liquidity and ultimately had a neutral effect on earnings. The fact that we were able to carry out this type of transaction demonstrates that our underlying assets are of high quality and that we enjoy a high level of confidence in the market.

Long-term diversified financing In line with Resurs's strategy of long-term diversified financing, Resurs Holding's subsidiary Resurs Bank issued senior unsecured bonds of SEK 600 million and NOK 600 million in the second quarter. There was very high interest in this issue. Issuing bonds in both Sweden and Norway is proof that we are a Nordic player that intends to continue to maintain diversified financing in the long term. Nordic Credit Rating (NCR) raised our credit rating to BBB, stable outlook, in April, which gives us continuing good conditions to secure financing at favourable terms.

BBB

Higher credit rating from Nordic Credit Rating (April 2021)

Strategic review of Solid. Solid continued its positive performance in the second quarter. Premium earned rose 6 per cent and the technical result increased 14 per cent year-on-year, despite the Travel business line remaining negatively affected by the pandemic. During the quarter, the Board assigned Group Management the task of initiating a strategic review and creating the preconditions for the distribution and separate listing of Solid Försäkring on Nasdaq Stockholm's main market. The initiative was based on the ambition to give Solid Försäkring the best prerequisites to continue its journey of growth. This process is proceeding and the ambition is to announce more information to the shareholders concerning the evaluation and the next step of the process during the current year.

What's happening in the future? There is a high level of activity across the entire Nordic organisation and we have started to accelerate on several fronts based on our solid transformation work. We are currently evaluating different suppliers of a new hypermodern and competitive fintech platform. We will present more about our transformation journey and our strategy to become a more sustainable, competitive and digital player at our Capital Market Day on 29 September 2021.

Resurs Holding Interim Report Q2 2021

April–June 2021 Group results*

Second quarter 2021, April-June

Operating income

The Group's operating income declined 10 per cent to SEK 840 million (932). Net interest income decreased 11 per cent to SEK 651 million (731), interest income totalled SEK 739 million (835) and interest expense amounted to SEK –88 million (–105). The relatively lower income was mainly due to lower lending in Norway, lower interest income in Denmark, and mix effects in Payment Solutions where many of Resurs's retail finance partners noted higher demand in connection with the pandemic. At the same time, these large partnerships involve lower margins for Resurs, which negatively impacted the overall NBI margin.

Fee & commission income amounted to SEK 48 million (43) and fee & commission expense to SEK –20 million (–14), resulting in a total net commission for the banking operations of SEK 28 million (29). The net commission remained impacted by effects of COVID-19, attributable to lower credit card income, loan commission and lower factoring income.

SEK 840 million

Operating income for the quarter

Premium earned in the insurance operations rose 6 per cent to SEK 241 million (227), while claim costs, which are recognised in the item insurance compensation, net, were SEK –56 million (–60). Fee & commission expenses in the insurance operations amounted to SEK –75 million (–59). In total, net insurance income increased to SEK 110 million (108).

The market value of equities and bond portfolios increased slightly, which resulted in a positive outcome for net income from financial transactions for Insurance of SEK 5 million (19). Other operating income, mainly comprising remuneration from lending operations, amounted to SEK 46 million (42).

Operating expenses

The Group's expenses before credit losses declined 3 per cent to SEK –349 million (–361). Viewed in relation to the operations' income, the cost level (excluding Insurance and nonrecurring costs) amounted to 41.5 per cent (38.7 per cent) as a result of the lower income level. Enhancing the efficiency of the operations and thus reducing the cost/income ratio is an important part of the ongoing transformation journey.

-3% Expenses for the quarter

Credit losses totalled SEK –179 million (–201) and the credit loss ratio was 2.3 per cent (2.6 per cent), meaning a decline in both absolute terms and as a share of lending due to the higher credit quality of the loan portfolio. The high credit quality was a result of the active austerity measures implemented in credit lending when pandemic started. This positive development was clear in both Payment Solutions and Consumer Loans and in all Nordic markets. The bank has not seen any changed payment patterns among its customers due to COVID-19. The risk-adjusted NBI margin totalled 7.6 per cent (8.5 per cent).

2.3% Credit loss ratio for the quarter

Profit

Operating profit fell 15 per cent to SEK 313 million (369). Tax expense for the quarter amounted to SEK –64 million (–80), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 20.6 per cent (21.7 per cent). Net profit for the quarter amounted to SEK 248 million (289).

First half of 2021, January–June

Operating income and expenses

The Group's operating income declined 8 per cent to SEK 1,691 million (1,829). Net interest income fell 12 per cent to SEK 1,302 million (1,476), with interest income amounting to SEK 1,484 million (1,685) and interest expense to SEK –182 (–209). The relatively lower income was mainly due to lower lending in Norway, lower interest income in Denmark, and mix effects in Payment Solutions where many of Resurs's retail finance partners noted higher demand in connection with the pandemic. At the same time, these large partnerships involve lower margins for Resurs, which negatively impacted the overall NBI margin. Fee & commission income amounted to SEK 85 million (91) and fee & commission expense to SEK –39 million (–30).

Operating income declined 3 per cent to SEK –702 million (–726) . Viewed in relation to the operations' income, the cost level (excluding Insurance) amounted to 41.9 per cent (38.6 per cent) as a result of the lower income level. Enhancing the efficiency of the operations and thus reducing the cost/income ratio is an important part of the ongoing transformation journey.

Credit losses totalled SEK –374 million (–464) and the credit loss ratio was 2.4 per cent (3.0 per cent). Excluding nonrecurring costs, credit losses totalled SEK –374 million (–389) and the credit loss ratio was 2.4 per cent (2.5 per cent). Credit losses fell in both absolute terms and as a share of lending due to the higher credit quality of the loan portfolio. The risk-adjusted NBI margin was 7.6 per cent (8.2 per cent).

Profit

Operating profit decreased 4 per cent to SEK 614 million (638). Tax expense for the period amounted to SEK –134 million (–141), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 21.8 per cent (22.1 per cent). Net profit for the period amounted to SEK 480 million (497).

COVID-19

An extra forward-looking credit provision of SEK 75 million was made in the first quarter of 2020 to meet potential higher credit losses, in addition to the model-based reserves, in accordance with IFRS 9. The company has not noted any negative trend in customers' payment patterns. We continue to believe that the risk of default could be negatively affected from the, which has been taken into consideration in the extra credit provision. Future risks have reduced, but there is still uncertainty regarding the ongoing economic recovery and the trend in unemployment and its associated effects on customers' solvency. Currently, the overall assessment is that no changes to the loss allowance are necessary due to COVID-19.

Resurs took action at an early stage of COVID-19 to introduce temporary austerity measures in credit lending in Consumer Loans in order to ensure continued high control of the risk level, which reduced the risk in new lending in all markets, with the associated declining volumes. In addition to this, new lending in Finland was primarily negatively affected by interest limitation and direct marketing regulations that were temporarily introduced at the start of the third quarter 2020. The direct effect on the Group's earnings was mainly related to the decline in the travel industry, which in turn has negatively impacted and is expected to continue to impact credit card commission and currency exchange fees negatively, while lower factoring activity resulted in lower commissions. Overall, Insurance was only marginally impacted during the quarter, even though the segment's smallest business line of Travel was significantly negatively affected.

Resurs Holding Interim Report Q2 2021

Financial position on 30 June 2021*

Comparative figures in this section refer to 31 December 2020, except for cash flow for which the comparative figure refers to the same period in the preceding year.

The Group's financial position is strong and on 30 June 2021, the capital base amounted to SEK 5,433 million (5,367) in the consolidated situation, comprising the Parent Company, Resurs Holding, and the Resurs Bank Group. The total capital ratio was 17.4 per cent (17.4 per cent) and the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 15.2 per cent (15.1 per cent).

Due to COVID-19, the authorities decided in spring 2020 to reduce the regulatory minimum capital requirement in the countercyclical capital buffer. This entails a total reduction of about 1.8 percentage points to 0.2 per cent for Resurs.

Lending to the public on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 31,148 million (30,858), entailing an increase of 1 per cent in both SEK and constant currencies. The trend in lending was impacted by the sale of a NPL portfolio in Norway in the second quarter; excluding the sale, growth in lending was 2 per cent since year-end. The specification of lending on 30 June 2021 was as follows: Sweden 51 per cent, Norway 19 per cent, Denmark 13 per cent and Finland 17 per cent.

In addition to capital from shareholders and bond investors, the operations are financed by deposits from the public. The Group is working actively on various sources of financing to create and maintain diversified financing for the long term.

Deposits from the public on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 24,918 million (24,692). The bank has deposits in SEK, NOK and EUR. Financing through issued securities totalled SEK 6,877 million (6,297). Liquidity remained extremely healthy and the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) was 292 per cent (288 per cent) in the consolidated situation. The minimum statutory LCR is 100 per cent. Lending to credit institutions on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 4,805 million (4,150). Holdings of treasury and other bills eligible for refinancing, as well as bonds and other interest-bearing securities, totalled SEK 3,344 million (3,446). Bonds of a nominal SEK 1,050 million and NOK 600 million were issued under Resurs Bank's MTN programme in 2021. The Group has a high level of liquidity for meeting its future commitments.

Intangible assets amounted to SEK 1,947 million (1,895), and primarily comprise the goodwill that arose in the acquisition of Finaref and Danaktiv in 2014 and yA Bank in 2015.

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 643 million (633) for the period. Cash flow from deposits amounted to SEK –40 million (611) and the net change in investment assets totalled SEK 164 million (–498). Cash flow from investing activities for the year totalled SEK –35 million (–44) and cash flow from financing activities was SEK 35 million (–246).

Dividend

The company is following the regulatory authorities' recommendations, positions and restrictions for banks and holding companies of banks to pay any dividends. In accordance with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's statement in December 2020, and after consultation with the Authority, a dividend of SEK 536 million was paid in May 2021 following a resolution by the Annual General Meeting. The company's dividend policy is unchanged and the Board intends to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Board intends to propose a motion to this Extraordinary General Meeting regarding a dividend of SEK 3.00 per share, a total of SEK 600 million in dividends, corresponding to 50 per cent of net profit for the first half of 2021 and the remainder of the predicted dividends until 2020. This assumes that the regulatory authorities' recommendations or positions are not extended or changed. During the period that it is not possible to understand the consequences of the ongoing pandemic, the Board intends to pay 50 per cent of the Group's net profit in dividends from earnings from 2020. The Board intends to continue paying semiannual dividends.

Payment Solutions Launch of new subscription service and digital wallets

Second quarter 2021, April-June

New lending in the Swedish market continued to perform positively in the second quarter, with primarily many of Resurs's larger retail finance partners managing the pandemic very well with unchanged, or in some cases higher, demand. This is positive, but at the same time means that these partnerships involved lower margins, which negatively impacted the total NBI margin.

Resurs has focused its efforts specifically on activating partners with higher margins in order to minimise the negative margin trend. An example of such efforts is the Partner Success Program that was launched in the first quarter, whereby developing collaborations with existing partners takes place at a new, modern and automated level.

During the quarter, the offering of subscription services was broadened to our retailers through a partnership with Fairown in the Swedish and Norwegian markets. Together with Fairown, Resurs can now offer customers the option of subscription solutions in several different industries. Based on this partnership, a successful collaboration was started with the e-commerce company Komplett in Norway at the beginning of the second quarter. Launch in the Swedish market with Komplett is planned for the start of the third quarter.

Society in Denmark and Norway gradually opened up during the quarter, which positively impacted new lending, although demand in these markets is not back at pre-pandemic levels.

Supreme Card remained challenged by reduced travel and restaurant visits. The option of paying using Apple and Google Pay was launched during the period, a payment method that further digitalises and simplifies the customer journey and makes payments more secure. Supreme Card developed and simplified its

application flows during the quarter, which led to a 24-per cent increase in the number of customers completing their applications.

Lending to the public on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 10,688 million (10,921), down 2 per cent year-on-year in both SEK and in constant currencies. Weaker lending was mainly due to COVID-19 and a continued declining trend in Norway. Operating income totalled SEK 320 million (354), down 10 per cent compared with the same quarter in 2020. The lower earnings were attributable mainly to the negative performance in Norway, mix effects with larger partners growing quicker due to the pandemic as well as lower fee & commission income primarily attributable to COVID-19. Operating income less credit losses amounted to SEK 272 million (285). The risk-adjusted NBI margin declined to 10.1 per cent (10.3 per cent).

First half of 2021, January–June

Lending to the public as of 30 June 2021 declined 2 per cent to SEK 10,688 million (10,921). Operating income amounted to SEK 633 million (732), down 13 per cent compared with the year-earlier period. Operating income less credit losses amounted to SEK 553 million (585). The risk-adjusted NBI margin fell to 10.2 per cent (10.5 per cent). Credit losses declined both in absolute terms and as a percentage of lending, which was mainly an effect of the extra credit provision made in the first quarter as a result of the expected future effects of COVID-19.

Second quarter 2021, April-June

Consumer Loans displayed stable growth in lending for the quarter. The Swedish market performed strongly as a result of effective marketing activities and use of the existing customer database. More than 85 per cent of new sales in the Swedish market in the second quarter was with customers in Resurs's own database. Using Resurs's own database allows the company to make better credit assessments since traditional credit assessments can be supplemented with internal variables, which results in lower credit risk and lower acquisition costs and thus contributes to Resurs's sustainable credit lending.

An agreement was signed with a new partner, Hemma, in the second quarter. This company makes it easier and more profitable for private individuals in the Swedish market to invest in climate-smart living. The main investment is in solar panels, and this is where Hemma wants to help its customers with financing in the form of green loans, either via mortgages or consumer loans. This is completely in line with our strategy of sustainable credit lending.

Lending volumes in the Norwegian market have fallen overall since the introduction of new legislation in the country in 2019. In 2021, Resurs shrank less than the market as a whole in consumer loans – the largest product the segment offers in Norway.

Growth in new lending in the Norwegian market remained favourable, although the percentage of customers ending their loans in advance continued to be high. During the quarter, the segment worked on different ways of improving the customer journey and thus retaining customers. For example, Resurs Bank's app was launched in the Norwegian market at the end of the second quarter.

The Danish market remained challenging in the quarter. The option of consolidating loans that was launched at the end of the first quarter continued to be calibrated and positive effects on new

lending could be seen towards the end of the second quarter. The Finnish market reported lower demand due to the temporary regulations on direct marketing that were introduced at the start of the third quarter of 2020.

Improvements to and automation of the application process for customers in the Nordic market continued in the quarter. A more simple and automated application processes increases the share of customers who complete their loan application. An example is the income verification launched at the end of the first quarter in Sweden that displayed positive effects in the second quarter.

Lending to the public on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 20,460 million (19,932), up 3 per cent in both SEK and constant currencies. Operating income for the quarter fell 10 per cent to SEK 461 million (512). Operating income less credit losses fell 13 per cent to SEK 331 million (380), and the risk-adjusted NBI margin was 6.4 per cent (7.6 per cent). Credit losses for the quarter were stable both in absolute terms and as a percentage of lending.

First half of 2021, January–June

Lending to the public on 30 June 2021 amounted to SEK 20,460 million (19,932). Operating income for the period declined 9 per cent to SEK 924 million (1,017). Operating income less credit losses totalled SEK 631 million (700), and the risk-adjusted NBI margin amounted to 6.3 per cent (7.0 per cent). The trend in the riskadjusted NBI margin was mainly due to the performance of the Norwegian and Danish market and lower margins due to higher average loans with lower credit risk. Credit losses declined both in absolute terms and as a percentage of lending, which was mainly an effect of the extra credit provision made in the first quarter as a result of the expected future effects of COVID-19.

Insurance Stable growth in premium earned and strong technical result

Second quarter 2021, April-June

For the second quarter of the year, Solid reported growth in both premium earned and technical result, while the combined ratio improved year-on-year.

A new partnership with Wästgöta Finans started in the Personal Safety product line during the quarter. Wästgöta Finans is a creditor that offers consumer loans and is part of a group that also includes the successful retailer Jula. Wästgöta Finans decided to enter into a partnership with Solid due to the company's extensive experience in both banking and retail.

In the Product business line, the partnership with Power, which has been Resurs's partner for many years, was expanded during the quarter to another geographical market. Power will offer the company's insurance policies to its customers in Denmark from the autumn. The launch of the partnership with Intersport in Norway, signed in Q1, progressed according to plan.

The process of initiating a strategic review and creating the preconditions for the separate listing of Solid Försäkring on Nasdaq Stockholm's main market commenced during the quarter.

Premium earned, net, increased 6 per cent compared with the yearearlier period to SEK 242 million (227). This increase was primarily due to the Roadside assistance/Car warranty and Product business lines.

Operating income for the quarter declined to SEK 63 million (69). This decline was due to net income from financial transactions that fell SEK 11 million compared with the preceding year as a result of the recovery in the capital market in the year-earlier period. Income attributable to the insurance operations rose 9 per cent.

Technical result increased 14 per cent to SEK 28 (25) year-on-year. Operating profit fell to SEK 37 million (42) compared with the yearearlier quarter, which was attributable to the outcome of net income from financial transactions. Operating expenses declined 3 per cent.

The total combined ratio improved to 88.9 per cent (89.7 per cent), primarily due to higher premium earned, lower claim costs and good cost control.

First half of 2021, January–June

Premium earned, net, increased 5 per cent compared with the first half of last year to SEK 477 million (456). This increase was primarily attributable to the Roadside assistance/Car warranty and Product business lines.

Operating income for the first half of the year increased SEK 55 million to SEK 141 million (87). The increase was mainly due to net income from financial transactions of SEK 27 million (–23). Income from the insurance business increased 3 per cent compared with the year-earlier period.

The technical result increased 7 per cent to SEK 58 million (54) yearon-year, mainly driven by growth in the Roadside assistance/Car warranty business line, lower claim costs and a controlled cost trend.

Operating profit rose 55 per cent to SEK 88 million (33) year-on-year. The total combined ratio improved to 88.4 per cent (88.7 per cent).

Risk and capital management

The Group's ability to manage risks and conduct effective capital planning is fundamental to its profitability. The business faces various forms of risk including credit risks, market risks, liquidity risks and operational risks. The Board has established operational policies with the aim of balancing the Group's risk taking, and to limit and control risks. All policies are updated as necessary and revised at least once annually. The Board and CEO are ultimately responsible for risk management. In general, there were no significant changes regarding risk and capital management during the period. The Group's risk management capabilities were affected to a certain extent during the pandemic but the impact was limited due to robust processes. The Group managed the risk of a loss of personnel in critical functions by introducing different zones and remote working. More employees working from home set higher requirements on information security and following up the bank's control framework. A more detailed description of the bank's risks, liquidity and capital management is presented in Note G3 and Note G4 Capital Adequacy in the most recent annual report.

material impact on the Group.

A core component of financing efforts is maintaining a well-diversified financing structure with access to several sources of financing. Access to a number of sources of financing means that it is possible to use the most appropriate source of financing at any particular time.

The main type of financing remains deposits from the public. This type of financing has been offered to customers in Sweden, Norway and Germany. Deposits, which are analysed on a regular basis, totalled SEK 25,118 million (24,694), whereof in Sweden SEK 11,985 million (11,535), in Norway SEK 6,419 million (6,441) and in Germany SEK 6,714 million (6,718). The lending to the public/deposits from the public ratio for the consolidated situation is 124 per cent (125 per cent).

Resurs Bank has a funding programme for issuing bonds, the programme amounts to SEK 9,000 million (9,000). Within the programme, Resurs Bank has been working successfully to issue bonds on a regular basis and sees itself as an established issuer on the market. At 30 June 2021 the program has nine outstanding issues at a nominal amount of SEK 4,950 million (4,900) and NOK 600 milion. Of the ten issues, eight are senior unsecured bonds and two issues are a subordinated loan of SEK 600 million (600). Resurs Bank has outside the programme issued subordinated loan of SEK 200 million (200). Resurs Holding issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of a nominal SEK 300 million (300).

Liquidity - Consolidated situation

Liquidity risk includes the risk of not being able to meet liquidity commitments without significantly higher costs. The consolidated situation, must maintain a liquidity reserve and have access to an unutilised liquidity margin in the event of irregular or unexpected liquidity flows.

The Group's liquidity risk is managed through policies that specify limits, responsibilities and monitoring and include a contingency plan. The purpose of the contingency plan is to make preparations for various courses of action should the liquidity situation trend unfavourably. The contingency plan includes, among other things, risk indicators and action plans. The Group's liquidity risk is controlled and audited by independent functions.

Liquidity comprises both a liquidity reserve and another liquidity portfolio that is monitored on a daily basis. The main liquidity risk is deemed to arise in the event multiple depositors simultaneously withdraw their deposited funds. An internal model is used to set minimum requirements for the amount of the liquidity reserve, calculated based on deposit volumes, the proportion covered by deposit insurance and relationship to depositors. The model also takes into account the future maturities of issued securities. The Board has stipulated that the liquidity reserve may never fall below SEK 1,400 million. Apart from the liquidity reserve, there is an intraday liquidity requirement of at least 4 per cent of deposits from the public, a minimum SEK 800 million. There are also other liquidity requirements regulating and controlling the business.

For detailed accounting principles for the Group, see the Annual report for 2020.

The regulatory consolidation (known as "consolidated situation") comprises the Resurs Bank AB Group and its Parent Company Resurs Holding AB.

The interim information on pages 4-37 comprises an integrated component of this financial report.

Resurs Bank has been awarded an updated rating from the rating company Nordic Credit Rating (NCR) in april 2021. Resurs Bank's credit rating was raised from BBB- to BBB based on Resurs Bank's ability to attract new partners and an improved Nordic consumer credit market. Access to Nordic Credit Ratings analyses can be found on the website www.nordiccreditrating.com.

Resurs Bank has completed a securitisation of loan receivables, a form of structured financing, referred to as Asset Backed Securities (ABS). This took place by transferring loan receivables to Resurs Bank's wholly owned subsidiaries Resurs Consumer Loans 1 Limited. Resurs Bank signed an agreement in December 2020 to extend the existing ABS financing. This financing has been arranged with JP Morgan Chase Bank. Resurs Bank has for a period of 18 months (revolving period), the right to continue sale of certain additional loan receivables to Resurs Consumer Loans. At 30 June 2021 a total of approximately SEK 2.5 billion in loan receivables had been transferred to Resurs Consumer Loans. Resurs Bank and Resurs Consumer Loans have provided security for the assets that form part of the securitisation. At the balance sheet date, the external financing amounted to SEK 2.0 billion (2.0) of the ABS financing.

The liquidity reserve, totalling SEK 1,878 million (1,860), is in accordance with Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority regulations on liquidity risk management (FFFS 2010:7) and applicable amendments thereto for the consolidated situation. Accordingly, assets are segregated, unutilised and of high quality. The liquidity reserve largely comprises assets with the highest credit quality rating.

In addition to the liquidity reserve, the consolidated situation has other liquid assets primarily comprised of cash balances with other banks. These assets are of high credit quality and total SEK 5,594 million (5,127) for the consolidated situation. Accordingly, total liquidity amounted to SEK 7,472 million (6,986) corresponds to 30 per cent (28 per cent) of deposits from the public. The Group also has unutilised credit facilities of NOK 50 million (50).

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) for the consolidated situation is reported to the authorities on a monthly basis. The LCR shows the ratio between high qualitative assets and net outflow during a 30-day stressed period. A ratio of 100 per cent means the assets managed the stress test scenario and is also the authority's limit. As at 30 June 2021, the ratio for the consolidated situation is 292 per cent (288 per cent). For the period January to June 2021, the avarage LCR measures 263 per cent for the consolidated situation.

All valuations of interest-bearing securities were made at market values that take into account accrued interest.

G3. Capital adequacy - Consolidated situation

Capital requirements are calculated in accordance with European Parliament and Council Regulation EU 575/2013 (CRR) and Directive 2013/36 EU (CRD IV). The Directive was incorporated via the Swedish Capital Buffers Act (2014:966), and the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's (SFSA) regulations regarding prudential requirements and capital buffers (FFFS 2014:12). The capital requirement calculation below comprises the statutory minimum capital requirement for credit risk, credit valuation adjustment risk, market risk and operational risk.

The combined buffer requirement for the consolidated situation comprises a capital conservation buffer and a countercyclical capital buffer. The capital conservation buffer requirement amounts to 2.5 per cent of the riskweighted assets. The countercyclical capital buffer requirement is weighted according to geographical requirements and after being lowered by the supervisory authorities in spring 2020 amounted to 0.2 per cent. Only Norwegian exposures have a buffer requirement remaining, which is currently 1.0 per cent of risk-weighted Norwegian assets.

The consolidated situation calculates the capital requirement for credit risk, credit valuation adjustment risk, market risk and operational risk. Credit risk is calculated by applying the standardised method under which the asset items of the consolidated situation are weighted and divided between 17 different exposure classes.

The total risk-weighted exposure amount is multiplied by 8 per cent to obtain the minimum capital requirement for credit risk. The capital requirement for operational risk is calculated by the standardised method. Under this method, the capital requirement for operational risks is 12 per cent of the income indicator (meaning average operating income for the past three years). The counterparty risk is calculated using the simplified standardised method. External rating companies are used to calculate the bank's capital base requirement for bonds and other interest-bearing securities.

Resurs Bank has applied to the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority for permission to apply the transition rules decided at EU level in December 2017. Under the transition rules, a gradual phase-in of the effect of IFRS 9 on capital adequacy is permitted, regarding both the effect of the transition from IAS 39 as at 1 January 2018 and the effect on the reporting date that exceeds the amount when IFRS 9 is first applied to stage 1 and stage 2. The phase-in period is as follows:

2018: 5 %, 2019: 10 %, 2020: 15 %, 2021: 20 %, 2022: 25 %, 2023: 25 %

In December 2019, Resurs Holding AB issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of a nominal SEK 300 million. The notes have a perpetual tenor with a first call option after five years and a temporary write-down mechanism.
