Market position

Sales focus is on unit-linked, which represents close to 80 per cent of total sales. SEB Trygg Liv is the market leader in Sweden within unit-linked insurance. The market share for the twelve month period to March 2008 was 23.1 per cent (28.0). Distribution channels are SEB's branch offices, own sales force and insurance mediators

Significant occupational pension business

Corporate sales have gradually grown and increased the share of total sales. During the first half the share however decreased to 65 per cent (73). SEB Trygg Liv is the market leader within new business unit-linked occupational pension. The market share for the twelve month period to March 2008 was 19.4 per cent (25.2).

SEB Trygg Liv also offers administration and management of pension foundations. SEB Trygg Liv Pensionstjänst (Pension Service) is the leading Swedish company in this field.

Strong in the private market

In the private market SEB Trygg Liv has a strong position within new business unit-linked endowment insurance. The market share for the twelve month period to March 2008 was 31.1 per cent (30.5).

Sales of private pension savings are relatively stable. SEB's sales in this area consist mainly of IPS - Individual Pension Savings and "Enkla Pensionen", a unit-linked product with a guarantee.

SEB Pension, Denmark

SEB Pension's traditional life insurance operations in Denmark are carried out in a profit-sharing company and therefore included in the division's result. By hedging the investment portfolios, the market and investment risks are controlled in relation to guaranteed commitments to policyholders. Variations in investment returns can be absorbed to a great extent by accumulated buffer funds, called "collective bonus potential".

The result includes an additional accrued income of SEK 200m (SEK 50m at year end) from the traditional life portfolios in Denmark. The amount is placed in a "shadow account", following the local Danish legislation regarding shareholder fee available for distribution in profit-sharing traditional life insurance. The restriction of distribution to the shareholder fee is relevant in relation to the full year results only.

SEB Pension's products

SEB Pension sells savings, life, sickness and disability insurance to private individuals and corporate clients through private and corporate sales personnel, insurance mediators and Codan Forsikring (general insurance).

Savings insurance is available both as unit-linked and traditional insurance (in a profit-sharing company). In the private market unit-linked insurance accounts for almost 90 per cent of sales, while approximately 50 per cent of the corporate market consists of traditional insurance, since certain business areas still do not allow unit-linked insurance to form part of an occupational pension plan.

The market for non-traditional life insurance, such as unit-linked, keeps expanding. This growth emanates mainly from the corporate segment, via insurance mediators.

Growing occupational pension market

The Danish occupational pension market has grown by approximately 10 per cent annually since year 2000, while the private market has shown virtually zero-growth. SEB Pension's growth rate within occupational pension has been in the range of 15-18 per cent in recent years, and the company has gained market shares, accordingly.

SEB Pension's development in the private market has been in line with the general trend. Measured in terms of premium income SEB Pension is the fourth largest life insurance company in Denmark, with a market share of 11 per cent. In the unit-linked segment the market share is 17 per cent. The market share figures are preliminary for full year 2007.

Distribution

Most insurance companies, including SEB Pension, have developed specialised private pension sales units that primarily concentrate on high-salary groups and customers with qualified advisory requirements.

Insurance mediators and the insurance companies' corporate sales personnel comprise the two dominant sales channels in the occupational pension market.

SEB Life & Pension, International

SEB Life & Pension International includes operating subsidiaries in Ireland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Ukraine. The Irish company also has a branch in the UK.

The operations of the Irish company SEB Life (Ireland) are focused primarily on sales of Portfolio Bond (depot endowment insurance). The sale is primarily concentrated on the Swedish market. Since 2004, the company also has a branch office in Luxembourg via SEB Private Banking, with sales focused on Swedes living abroad.

The Baltic subsidiaries are mainly focused on unitlinked insurance but also offer traditional insurance and sickness/disability insurance. 91 per cent of the sales volume is private and 9 per cent is corporate paid.

1) The Baltic countries are included from Q4 2007. Q2 2008 includes effects from an adjustment of the calculation method (mainly Denmark).

2) Sales defined as new contracts and extra premiums in existing contracts.

3) The reported actual outcome of contracts signed can be placed in relation to the operative assumptions that were made. Thus, the value of the deviations can be estimated. The most important components consist of extensions of contracts as well as cancellations. However, the actual income and administrative expenses are included in full in the operating result.

  • 4) Deferred acquisition costs are capitalised in the accounts and amortised according to plan. The reported change in surplus values is therefore adjusted by the net result of the capitalisation and amortisation during the period.
  • 5) Assumed unit growth is 6 per cent, i.e. 1.5 per cent per quarter. Actual growth results in positive or negative financial effects.
  • 6) During 2008 administrative costs per policy in SEB Pension were adjusted (effect Q1 SEK -25m, Q2 +25m). During Q2 2008 adjustments in the Baltics had an effect of SEK 13m. Main changes in 2007: Administrative costs per policy were adjusted with a positive effect. In Sweden the surrender rate was adjusted from 6 / 6 / 12 per cent to 1 / 10 / 12 per cent depending on years past since the sign of contracts (within 1 / 5 / 10 years). This change had a negative effect.
  • 7) Estimated surplus value according to the above are not included in the SEB Group's consolidated accounts. The closing balance is shown after the deduction of capitalised acquisition costs (SEK 3,078m at June 30, 2008).

The sensitivity analysis

The calculation of surplus values is relatively sensitive to changes in assumptions. A change of the discount rate by $+1/-1$ percentage point gives an effect in surplus values of SEK-1,481/+1,729m. A higher or lower actual

return/growth in fund units will result in positive or negative effects when the surplus value change of the period is calculated. A change in the growth assumption by $+1/-1$ percentage point will give a change in surplus values of SEK +1,540/-1,281m.

New business profit

One way of measuring profitability of sales is to calculate the new business profit. Profit from new business, the net of present value of new sales and sales expenses, is measured in relation to the weighted sales volume.

SEKm Jul 2007-Jun 2008 Full year 2007 Full year 2006 Full year 2005

Appendix 3b Capital requirements for the SEB financial group of undertakings

During 2007 SEB used a mixed approach where capital requirements for SEB AB, SEB AG and SEB Gyllenberg were reported according to Basel II, while Basel I reporting was used for remaining companies in the Group. From 2008 all SEB's reporting follows Basel II.

Total reported 69 711 67 358

To note:

Corporate exposures (1) exclude such small companies where the total exposure does not exceed certain regulatory-defined thresholds.

The Standardised approach (2) is used for credit exposures to central governments, central banks and local governments and authorities, and to exposures where IRB implementation is on-going. The reported capital requirement is dominated by the Corporate and Retail

exposure classes. In Basel II, counterparty risk (repos, securities lending, derivatives) in the trading book is referred to credit risk, and not to market risk as in Basel I.

During years 2007/2008/2009 institutions should have a capital base not below 95/90/80 per cent of the capital requirement according to Basel I regulation. The addition (3) is made in consequence with this transitional rule.

Appendix 3c Capital adequacy analysis

Representing business volume as RWA (risk weighted assets, 12.5 times the capital requirement) the regulatory minima can be expressed as a total capital ratio of at least 8 per cent and a core capital ratio of at least 4 per cent. However, and following the "second pillar" of the new framework, banks are expected to operate above this level. The margin supports SEB's high rating ambitions, covering risks that are not included in the capital adequacy regulation, and representing a buffer for the less benign phases of the business cycle. The Group's internal capital assessment process is based on the long term business plans and utilises SEB's economic capital model, supplemented e.g. with macro economic analysis and stress testing.

The following changes hold compared with 2007 when only SEB AB, SEB AG and SEB Gyllenberg were reported according to Basel II:

  • IRB reporting of retail, corporate and interbank exposures in Latvia and Lithuania that previously followed $\Omega$ Basel I.
  • Basel II Standardised reporting of other credit exposures that previously followed Basel I. $\circ$
  • Operational risk reporting extended to the entire Group. After supervisory approval, the Group now reports $\circ$ the capital requirement for operational risk according to the Advance Measurement Approaches. Please note that the SEK 3,723bn reported at year end related to a subset of the SEB Group only; the second-quarter number 3,365 can better be compared with the 5,428 reported (following the Basic Indicator approach) at the end of the first quarter.

Overall Basel I RWA increased with 9 per cent since year end while Basel II RWA (before the effect of regulatory floors) increased with less than 1 per cent. Considering also the lowering of the regulatory floor from 95 per cent of Basel I (2007) to 90 per cent (2008), reported RWA increased from SEK 842bn at year end to SEK 871bn at the reporting date.

The following table exposes average risk weights (RWA divided by EAD, Exposure At Default) for IRB reported exposures classes. Changes since year end reflect both IRB reporting of new portfolios as well as a limited risk class migration.

IRB reported credit exposures 30 June 31 December
Average risk weight 2008 2007
Institutions 15,6% 15.1%
Corporates 53,9% 53,4%
Securitisation positions 7.6% 7.4%
Retail mortgages 17.7% 16.1%

Un-floored Basel II RWA was 24 per cent lower than Basel I RWA. SEB uses a gradual roll-out of the Basel II framework; the ultimate target is to use IRB reporting for all credit exposures except those to central governments, central banks and local governments and authorities, and excluding a small number of insignificant portfolios. The current best estimate indicates that this would mean a reduction in total RWA (compared with Basel I) of at least 30 per cent. This cannot be equated with a similar capital release, however, due to the new framework's increased business cycle sensitivity, supervisory evaluation and rating agency considerations.

Appendix 4 Market risk

The Group's risk taking in trading operations is measured by value at risk, VaR. The Group has chosen a level of 99 per cent probability and a ten-day period. The table below shows the risk by risk type. Average VaR level during the first half of 2008 was SEK 152m, compared with 92m during calendar year 2007. The increase is mainly in

interest rate risk due to continued high volatility and higher positions. FX risk remains low and stable as volatility in major currencies has decreased during the year. Equity market volatility has increased in 2008, but lower positions means that the risk level is more or less unchanged.

President's comment

Operating profit in the second quarter was SEK 3,507m. It reflects SEB's strong customer franchise and earnings capacity in a more challenging economic climate. Global inflationary pressure adds to the prolonged uncertainty from the dislocations in the credit markets.

Income regained strength during the second quarter. Net interest income grew from a high level, supported by overall lending and deposit growth in combination with relatively stable margins. Sales of mutual funds and life products remained strong and the high customer activity increased income in areas such as foreign exchange and cash management. Customer activity in securities-related areas was more subdued, but picked up compared with the previous quarter.

Valuation effects of fixed-income portfolios were limited, in sharp contrast with the previous quarters. All in all, income in the second quarter was close to all-time high.

SEB continues to invest in the business for future income generation. During 2008, these investments and the costs related to the long-term programme, 'One IT Roadmap', have exceeded the productivity gains in the divisions. Through further efficiency measures total costs during the second half of the year are expected to be lower than in the first half.

Over the last quarters, Estonia and Latvia have experienced a sharp reduction of GDP growth. As a consequence, past due payments on loans have increased and we continue to build up reserves. Problems are most pronounced in Estonia which largely explain the Group's increased net credit losses.

Due to the strong capitalisation and earnings capacity, the higher net credit losses are not expected to impact SEB's creditworthiness at current markets.

Our investments made for future income generation in combination with the strong capital base and liquidity access provide the stability required for the current environment.

High business activity supports long-term income growth

Merchant Banking's business volumes have grown substantially over the past years. As an example, riskweighted assets over the last twelve months have increased by 26 per cent. In Retail Banking the Swedish cash management offering has attracted more than 5,000 new customers in the SME segment, increasing corporate

lending in Sweden by 14 per cent. As a result of these higher customer volumes, the customer-driven net interest income continued to grow at a double-digit level. Net interest

income in the second quarter was the highest to date.

Investments made in servicing customers within longterm savings have greatly increased volumes in asset management, custody and life insurance businesses. Today these areas account for almost one fourth of Group income.

After years of substantial volume growth, assets under management today amount to SEK 1,295bn and custody volumes to SEK 4,728bn. Unit-linked volumes have more than doubled in the last five years to SEK 126bn. Net sales remain strong in these areas. As an example, SEB was number eight in terms of net sales in the European mutual fund market during the first quarter of 2008 (Lipper Feri).

In addition, the transaction based 'core banking' business has grown in size. Products such as cash management, card and payments services constitute about 20 per cent of Group income.

The Group

Second quarter isolated

SEB's operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK 3,507m (4,554). This was a decrease of 23 per cent compared with the corresponding quarter of 2007 but an increase of 46 per cent compared with the first quarter of 2008. Net profit dropped to SEK 2,809m (3,522).

Total operating income amounted to SEK 10,403m $(10,719)$ . This was 3 per cent lower than for the second quarter of last year, but 18 per cent better than for the first quarter of 2008. Net interest income increased by 12 per cent compared with the corresponding period of 2007 due to positive margin and volume development in combination with higher interest on equity. The more limited margin and volume effect compared with the first quarter of 2008 together with higher returns on treasury assets which more than compensated higher funding costs, generated a 5 per cent higher net interest income. Net fee and commission income decreased by 14 per cent compared with the second quarter last year but was slightly better than for the first quarter of this year. Net financial income was 14 per cent down from the corresponding period in 2007 but 73 per cent higher than in the first quarter of 2008, adjusted for the valuation losses in the investment portfolio containing fixed-income securities. Net life insurance income was unchanged compared with the second quarter of 2007 and down by 10 per cent compared with the previous quarter.

Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 6,445m (5,884). Excluding the effects from acquisitions, One IT Roadmap and pension accounting, costs rose by 5 per cent compared with the corresponding period in 2007. The higher cost level is partly explained by intensified sales activities and investments in processes. IT costs also rose.

Net credit losses rose to SEK 452m (280), of which SEK 283m (94) referred to the Baltic countries.

Half-yearly results

SEB's operating profit for the first six months of 2008 amounted to SEK 5,917m (8,711), a decrease of 32 per cent compared with the corresponding period in 2007. Net profit decreased by 31 per cent, to SEK 4,657m (6,784).

Income

Total operating income decreased to SEK 19,205m (20,912).

Net interest income improved by 12 per cent, to SEK 8,644 (7,706). Higher volumes added SEK 701m; average deposit volumes grew by 6 per cent year-on-year, while average lending to the public was 7 per cent higher than twelve months ago. Lower margins reduced net interest income by SEK 21m; lending margins were somewhat under pressure, while deposit margins were slightly improved.

Customer-driven net interest income grew by 10 per cent compared with the first six months of 2007. Increased duration of new borrowings and higher short-term interest rate levels had a negative impact on funding costs, but

including interest on equity and higher returns on treasury assets, the combined effect was a positive contribution of SEK 258m.

Net fee and commission income decreased by 13 per cent, to SEK 7,710m (8,821), mostly due to falling income from advisory services and mergers and acquisitions as well as from securities transactions within both the retail and institutional business. In spite of falling stock prices, commissions from custody and mutual funds business were stable. Card-related income improved.

Net financial income decreased to SEK 1,000m (2,656) due to lower valuations of fixed-income securities and lower income from Group Treasury and Capital Markets.

Net life insurance income decreased somewhat, to SEK 1,355m (1,385). Positive sales growth could not compensate for falling unit-linked values. A complete description of Life's operations, including changes in surplus values, is found in "Additional information" on www.sebgroup.com.

Net other income amounted to SEK 496m (344) due to positive hedge accounting effects, which more than offset the lower capital gains. A 'one-off' capital gain of SEK 59m was included (110).

Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by 7 per cent, to SEK 12,472m (11,686) following investments made in staff, IT and new businesses. On a more comparable basis, i.e. excluding the effects from acquisitions (108), investments in One IT Roadmap (222) and pension accounting (170), costs were up by 2 per cent.

The cost-efficiency gains during January-June amounted to SEK 202m, resulting in an accumulated gain of SEK 748m from the start of last year.

Staff costs rose by 4 per cent, to SEK 7,892m (7,570). This was mainly due to increased salaries and higher pension costs, arising from falling return on planned assets and changed actuarial assumptions regarding longevity. During the first six months, SEK 146 (108) was provisioned for redundancy costs and SEK 19m (90) for costs related to the long-term incentive programmes. Short-term performance-related remuneration was reduced by SEK 368m to SEK 1,322m (1,690). The average number of full time equivalents increased by 1,835 to 21,230 (19,395), of which 1,039 followed acquisitions consolidated during 2008. Organic growth in the Baltic countries and Ukraine contributed close to 500 new staff.

Other expenses increased by 12 per cent, to SEK 3,854m (3,446), mostly due to the investments in One IT Roadmap, other IT development and efficiency projects.

Credit losses

The Group's net credit losses, including changes in the value of assets taken over, amounted to SEK 820m (514). While net credit losses for the non-Baltic business decreased by 20 per cent, net credit losses in the Baltic countries increased to SEK 507m (122). The majority of this increase referred to Estonia where specific provisions exceeded collective provisions for the first time in the last few years.

It is in line with SEB's earlier anticipation of higher loss levels, which at the time translated into the build up of collective reserves. The annualised credit loss level was $0.15$ per cent $(0.11)$ reflecting the overall stable asset quality of the Group. In the Baltic countries the net credit loss level was 0.73 per cent.

Tax costs

Total tax amounted to SEK 1,261m (1,927). The total tax rate was 21 per cent. The tax rate expected for the whole year is between 21 to 23 per cent.

Business volumes

The Group's total balance sheet of SEK 2,304bn as per 30 June represented a decrease of 2 per cent since year-end 2007. Lending to banks decreased, while lending to and deposits from the public increased slightly. Negative currency effects amounted to SEK 14bn.

SEB's total credit exposure increased to SEK 1,631bn (1,552 at year-end) during the first six months. Credit volumes continued to grow in the corporate sectors in the Nordic countries and in Germany. Nordic household lending also continued to grow. The Baltic banks' lending growth is significantly lower than previous years.

As of 30 June 2008, assets under management amounted to SEK 1,295bn (1,370 at year-end). Net inflow during the period was SEK 20bn (29), while the change in value was SEK -112bn (42). (The acquisition of Key Asset Management contributed with SEK 17bn.) SEB remained the market leader within net sales of mutual funds in Sweden, with SEK 3.8bn of net inflows during the first six months of 2008 on a market which experienced outflows of SEK 28bn. Assets under custody amounted to SEK 4,728bn $(5,314).$

Fixed-income securities portfolios

As per 30 June, SEB held total net positions in fixed-income securities of SEK 338bn (331 at year-end 2007) for investment, treasury and client trading purposes. Holdings consist mainly of covered bonds, bonds issued by financial institutions and asset-backed securities.

The investment portfolio of Merchant Banking continued to be negatively affected by the dislocations in the credit markets. The second quarter valuation losses at SEK 122m, of which SEK 66m over income and SEK 56m over equity, were significantly lower compared with the previous quarters. Thus during 2008, the mark-to-market loss on this portfolio amounted to SEK 2,624m, of which SEK 938m affected Net financial income and SEK 1,686m was recorded as a valuation loss in equity for Availablefor-sale portfolios. SEK 1,840m of the mark-to-market loss refers to holdings in asset-backed securities and SEK 784m to other financial instruments, mainly bonds issued by financial institutions. At prevailing credit market conditions, SEB views a default on the holdings in these portfolios as unlikely.

Based on SEB's long-term investment view of the holdings, risk management has focused on limiting further income volatility. As a consequence, the holdings classified as Available-for-Sale have increased, while the Held-for-Trading securities have decreased. At 30 June, 89 per cent of the total holdings in the investment portfolio of SEK 126bn were classified as Available-for-Sale (46 per cent at year-end).

The holdings of asset-backed securities in the investment portfolio amounted to SEK 61bn (71 at yearend), 97.2 per cent of these securities are AAA-rated. During the year 20 transactions were downgraded by Standard and Poor's or Moody's; since last summer a total of 23 out of 695 transactions have been downgraded. The average economic duration of the holdings is approximately four years. 63 per cent of the asset-backed exposures are related to the European markets and 37 per cent to the U.S. market. Direct and indirect asset-backed securities exposures to the U.S. subprime mortgage sector amounted to SEK 1.6bn (2.3 at year-end); until the end of the second quarter, one subprime transaction has been downgraded by Standard and Poor's and Moody's.

The holdings of covered bonds and bonds issued by financial institutions in the investment portfolio amounted to SEK 65bn (60 at year-end).

Market risk

During the first six months of 2008, the Group's Value at Risk in the trading operations averaged SEK 152m (92) during the calendar year 2007). This means that the Group, on average, with 99 per cent probability, should not expect to lose more than this amount during a ten-day period. The higher risk level is mainly due to substantially higher interest rate volatility.

Liquidity and funding

At 30 June, the match-funding of net cash inflows and outflows was approximately twelve months, taking liquidity reserves into consideration.

Capital position

As per 30 June 2008, SEB reported a core capital ratio of 8.6 per cent (8.6 at year-end 2007) and a total capital ratio of 10.8 per cent (11.0). The capital requirement for operational risk is for the first time reported according to the Advanced Measurement approach, subsequent to supervisory approval. The lowering of Basel II implementation floors (from 95 to 90 per cent of previous requirements) in 2008 is reflected in these ratios. Capital requirements according to Basel I regulation would give ratios of 7.7 and 9.6 per cent, respectively. Since year-end risk weighted assets (Basel I) have increased by 9 per cent, to SEK 972bn. Appendix 3 exposes details of capital adequacy.

Risks and uncertainties

The macro-economic environment is the major driver of risk to the Group's earnings and financial stability. In particular, it affects the asset quality and thereby the credit risk of the Group (details on the credit portfolio are described in Appendix 2). Also, there are financial risks

mainly in the form of price risks (details on market risks are described in Appendix 4). Credit and market risks as well as other risks in 2007 and risk management of all risks for the Group and the Parent Company are described in SEB's annual report for 2007 (see pp 34-41 and Note 44).

A sharp reduction of economic growth and continued economic imbalances in Estonia and Latvia together with higher past due payments on loans during the first six months of 2008 have emphasised the need for a continued proactive treatment of any arising asset quality problems and for monitoring further developments closely.

The tight liquidity conditions in the credit and interbank markets prevailing since the summer of 2007 still put stable funding and liquidity management in focus. Recent developments within this area are described above.

The general credit spread widening across all asset classes in the second half of 2007 and the first six months of 2008 resulted in mark-to-market losses on SEB's fixedincome securities portfolios (see under Fixed-income securities portfolios).

Investments and divestments

In late June, SEB in Estonia sold its share in the card transaction company Pankade Kaardikeskus (PKK) to Northern European Transaction Services (NETS), with a capital gain of SEK 59m.

Compliance in Swedish Life

The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority has criticised previous compliance and risk-control routines within Fondförsäkringsaktiebolaget SEB Trygg Liv AB ("the unitlinked company") and Gamla Livförsäkringsbolaget SEB Trygg Liv (the mutual company not consolidated). All shortcomings pointed out have, also according to the Authority, been corrected. Nevertheless, the Authority has decided on a penalty fee of SEK 15m each for both companies, which has impacted the second quarter's result.

Changes within the Group Executive Committee

Jan Erik Back has been appointed new CFO and Executive Vice President of SEB after Per-Arne Blomquist, who will leave the Bank. Jan Erik Back, who will start in mid-August, is currently First Senior Executive Vice President and CFO of Vattenfall.

Events after the quarter

In early July, SEB reached an agreement with GMAC Commercial Finance (GMAC CF) to acquire its Polish factoring and promissory note discounting operation with total assets of SEK 2bn. The acquisition is expected to be completed by 31 July, 2008.

After the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding in June, SEB on 14 July, together with the other major owners, reached an agreement with Euroclear to sell their shares in NCSD (VPC). The capital gain of approximately SEK 750m will be recorded once necessary regulatory approvals or clearances have been obtained, which are anticipated before year-end.

The Board of Directors and the President declare that the interim report for January-June provides a fair overview of the Parent Company's and Group's operations, their financial position and results and describes material risks and uncertainties facing the Parent Company and other companies in the Group.

Review Report

We have reviewed the interim report for the period 1 January-30 June, 2008 for Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ). Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by FAR. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies.

  • Strong net sales within both Private Banking and Institutional Clients

Continued gain of market share in the Swedish mutual funds market

Comments on the first six months

Investor behaviour remained cautious also during the second quarter, although with a slightly increased risk appetite during the final months of the period.

Operating income for the first six months dropped by 11 per cent compared with last year. Net sales and increased net interest income somewhat balanced lower net fee and commission income, due to falling asset values and lower customer activity. Performance fees amounted to SEK 217m (330).

Operating expenses during the period increased by 14 per cent, of which 8 per cent were non-comparable costs including Key Asset Management and pension costs. Underlying costs increased by 6 per cent related to expansion of Private Banking and Institutional Sales, development of alternative investment products and investments in future efficiency enhancing projects, e.g. SEB Way. Costs for the second quarter declined by 5 per cent compared with the first quarter.

Operating profit decreased by 32 per cent, to SEK 926m during the first six months. Net credit losses of SEK 31m related to Enkla Lånet in Norway were transferred to SEB Kort.

SEB again captured volumes on the Swedish mutual fund market. Total net inflows amounted to SEK 3.8bn (8.0) during the first half of the year on a market experiencing

total flows of net SEK -28bn (14). Alternative investments alone attracted net inflows totalling SEK 7.6bn (3.3) and dominated the first quarter inflows. During the second quarter. Growth and North American investments attracted investors' interest. SEB received a number eight ranking in terms of net sales in the European mutual fund market during the first quarter (Lipper Feri, 19 May).

Net new assets during the period were strong, considering the market, and amounted to SEK 20bn (28), which offset the impact from declining equity markets on assets under management, which decreased by 5 per cent to SEK 1.217bn from year-end.

Investment performance strengthened during the second quarter, but year-to-date performance still remained low with 49 per cent (71) of the portfolios and 45 per cent (85) of assets under management ahead of their respective benchmarks.

Private Banking generated net new assets of SEK 10.7bn (7.0) despite the adverse market conditions. The success was due to very high activity and close co-operation with the Retail Banking division.

Institutional Clients' second quarter was strong in terms of net sales in Sweden. Denmark and the Baltic countries. Several new products within the alternative segment were introduced during the second quarter.
