Change in accounting principles and one-time character items

Change in accounting principles

On 22 January 2013, SEB issued a press release regarding the early adoption of the amendments to IAS 19, Employee benefits, regarding the accounting of defined benefit plans. The press release also included the financial effects from adapting to the risk measurement of CVA (Credit Value Adjustment) in the Basel III proposed framework. These changes led to an adjustment of retained earnings. See page 33 and the Statement of changes in equity for a summary of the impact on previously reported financial statements.

One-time character items

At the same time, financial effects of a one-time character in the fourth quarter were published. They included one-off positive effects from the lowered Swedish corporate tax rate of SEK 1.1bn, a cost of SEK 753m from write-down of parts of development of new IT infrastructure that will not be used and a negative effect on income of SEK 402m from buy-backs of covered bonds.

Excluding the items of a one-time character, the official income statement on page 10 would have been the following on a pro forma basis.

President's comment

2012 marked the fifth consecutive year of high volatility in the financial markets as well as subdued global economic growth. Since the markets reacted to the first signs of the subprime crisis in the US, a global financial crisis has been followed by a sovereign debt crisis. Over these years, central bank balance sheets have increased fivefold, banks have deleveraged and interest rates have come down to historic low levels while corporate balance sheets have grown stronger. Even so, uncertainty continues to hold back real economic growth and this uncertainty is further exacerbated by delays to the new regulatory framework for banks both on an international and EU level.

The Nordic countries have shown remarkable resilience throughout the crisis, but as small open economies they were affected towards the end of the year. The world economic outlook continues to be characterized by a "muddling through" scenario although some glimmer of hope has now returned to the markets in some geographies.

Robust result

SEB's operating profit 2012 excluding the one-off effects in the fourth quarter, was SEK 15.4bn, up 3 per cent compared to 2011. While 2011 included reversals of Baltic credit provisions, profit before credit losses in the underlying business increased by 15 per cent. Average customer-related lending and deposit volumes increased by 7 and 10 per cent respectively. The lower corporate activity was reflected in fewer M&A transactions as well as in lower trading income. Underlying operating costs including higher pension costs (IAS 19) and redundancies, fell by 3 per cent and came in below our cost cap of SEK 23bn.

Strong franchise attracting more customers

The end of 2012 also marks the end of SEB's three year business plan. The plan has focused on strengthened longterm customer relations, disciplined growth in targeted markets while increasing resilience and flexibility through even stronger capital and liquidity buffers as well as increased cost efficiency.

Looking back at these three years, SEB has strengthened its position as the Nordic corporate bank with the investments in our Nordic and German corporate franchise as well as in the Swedish SME segment. As recent as this month Prospera named SEB the No. 1 Nordic corporate bank. Our more holistic customer offering in the savings area has attracted higher customer volumes within such areas as deposits, retirement related savings and private banking.

Earnings volatility has been reduced and we have divested non-core operations as the retail operations in Germany and Ukraine. We have increased cost efficiency. In addition, we have built a strong balance sheet in terms of capital, liquidity reserves, funding structure and asset quality and have adapted to the new regulatory framework. This has also been recognised by the rating agencies. Perhaps the achievement which makes the whole SEB team most proud is the evidence of deeper relationships with our existing customers at the

same time as we have gained 300 new large corporates, more than 30,000 new SMEs and 123,000 new private individuals as our customers.

The next three years

Going forward, the new three year plan aims to execute upon SEB's customer, employee, and profitability ambitions, and preserve the bank's unique corporate profile in the Nordic region.

On an operational level, SEB will use the corporate platform established in the Nordic countries and Germany to increase cross-selling with existing and new clients. In addition, the bank will further consolidate its presence with international and Nordic financial institutions, continue the growth in the Swedish SME segment, become a leader within savings in Sweden and leverage the strong SEB brand in the Baltic region. All of thes1e activities will be accompanied by continued cost efficiency and regulatory compliance. The cost cap for 2013 and for 2014 is now SEK 22.5bn per year.

With this new business plan in place, the Board and management have reviewed SEB's financial targets. Going forward SEB will aim to:

  • Pay a yearly dividend that is 40 per cent or above of the earnings per share
  • Target a common equity tier 1 ratio of 13 per cent (Basel III) and

  • Generate return on equity that is competitive with peers. This means that we in the long-term aspire to reach a return on equity of 15 per cent.

Long-term orientation remains key

The last three year plan clearly showed the potential for SEB and our relationship banking model. The increased customer base provides a strong backbone for continuing the focused expansion in our region. With the experience gained in operational and customer excellence during the past years, SEB focuses this business plan on the ambition to have the most satisfied customers and close the financial performance gap to peers. Our direction to be the relationship bank in our part of the world remains firm.

The Group

Fourth quarter isolated

Operating profit amounted to SEK 2,839m (3,061). Net profit from continuing operations was SEK 3,240m (2,557).

Net profit (after tax), including the net result from discontinued operations, amounted to SEK 3,239m (2,257).

Excluding one-off effects, operating profit was

SEK 3,994m and net profit SEK 3,008m.

Operating income

Total operating income amounted to SEK 9,637m (9,334). Net interest income increased to SEK 4,458m (4,318).

SEK m Q4 Q3 Q4
2012 2012 2011
Customer driven NII 4,060 4,006 4,117
NII from other activities 398 460 201
Total 4,458 4,466 4,318

The customer-driven net interest income increased by SEK 54m in the fourth quarter. This was primarily due to higher volumes. Compared to the fourth quarter 2011, the customer-driven net interest income decreased by SEK 57m due to lower deposit margins. Average volumes of loans to and deposit from the public grew by 5 and 6 per cent, respectively.

Net interest income from other activities was up SEK 197m compared with the corresponding quarter 2011 and down SEK 62m from the previous quarter. Funding costs decreased as well as the yield in the liquidity portfolio. The contribution from the trading operations was SEK 121m lower than the fourth quarter 2011 and SEK 13m higher than the previous quarter.

Net fee and commission income increased to SEK 3,715m (3,637). The market value of assets under management recovered during the quarter. There was a seasonal positive effect in performance fees. Customers were more active across various segments leading to improved lending and advisory fees.

Net financial income increased by 67 per cent to SEK 982m (589). Net financial income decreased compared to the third quarter mainly due to the increase in market values of fixed income securities in the liquidity portfolio in the third quarter. The increase compared to the fourth quarter 2011 is partially due to a SEK 214m loss on GIIPS securities which was accounted for in 2011.

Net life insurance income amounted to SEK 831m (992). The positive equity market development in the fourth quarter contributed to improved unit-linked income in Sweden, while traditional and risk insurance income was lower. The decrease from the corresponding period last year was mainly due to particular good performance in the traditional portfolios in that period.

Net other income at SEK -349m (-202). During the fourth quarter, measures were taken to extend the duration of the Bank's issued covered bonds by repurchases of bonds with short remaining maturity to an amount of SEK 12bn, and

subsequent issuance of bonds with longer duration. The repurchases had a negative effect on income in the amount of SEK 402m.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 6,524m (6,032). The fourth quarter included a cost of SEK 753m related to a write-down of parts of development of new IT infrastructure that will not be used. An antitrust penalty fee in the amount of SEK 63m, which SEB will appeal, was incurred in Lithuania.

Staff costs in general were down albeit redundancy costs increased. At the end of 2012, the number of employees was 16,295, which was 512 lower than the fourth quarter 2011, even though 1,100 new employees were hired.

Credit losses and provisions

Provisions for credit losses amounted to SEK 276m for the quarter (240) corresponding to a credit loss level of 8 basis points. The provisions for credit losses for the Group, excluding the Baltic region, decreased and equaled a credit loss level of 4 basis points in the quarter. The provisions in the Baltic region increased and corresponded to a credit loss level of 56 basis points in the quarter.

Non-performing loans, which amounted to SEK 13.8bn, fell by 5 per cent in the quarter reflecting continued strong asset quality. Compared to a year ago they were 23 per cent lower.

Individually assessed impaired loans decreased by SEK 462m to SEK 8,001m during the quarter.

The Group's portfolio assessed loans past due >60 days decreased by SEK 289m during the quarter to SEK 5,389m.

Income tax expense

Total income tax expense was positive at SEK 401m (-504). The positive number is a result of the reduction of the Swedish corporate tax rate from 26.3 per cent to 22 per cent which is applicable from 1 January 2013. In 2012, the deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Swedish income tax were revalued at 22 per cent, resulting in a positive one-off effect of SEK 1.1bn.

Discontinued operations

The net result from discontinued operations was SEK -1m (-300).

The full year 2012

Operating profit for 2012 amounted to SEK 14,235m (14,953). Profit before credit losses increased by 7 per cent to SEK 15,171m (14,173). Net profit from continuing operations was SEK 12,142m (12,011).

Net profit (after tax), including the net result from discontinued operations, was SEK 11,654m (10,856).

Excluding one-off effects, operating profit was SEK 15,390m and net profit SEK 11,422m.

Operating income

Total operating income amounted to SEK 38,823m (37,686), an increase of 3 per cent compared to the full year 2011.

Net interest income amounted to SEK 17,635m (16,901).

SEK m Jan-Dec Jan-Dec Change
2012 2011 %
Customer driven NII 15,927 15,223 5
NII from other activities 1,708 1,678 2
Total 17,635 16,901 4

Net interest income from customer loans and deposits combined increased by SEK 703m. Lending margins were up somewhat, but were offset by lower deposit margins following lower short-term interest rates. Average volumes of loans to and deposit from the public grew by 7 and 10 per cent, respectively.

Net interest income from other activities was SEK 31m higher compared with 2011. This related primarily to lower average cost of funding as SEB's credit spreads tightened during 2012. The lower funding costs were partly offset by increased volumes of long-term funding and decreasing short-term rates.

The fee to the Swedish stability fund amounted to SEK 602m (515). The contribution to the deposit guarantee scheme was SEK 440m (398). Both items reduced net interest income.

Net fee and commission income amounted to SEK 13,620m (14,175). Commissions and fees from mutual funds decreased primarily because the average volumes of assets under management were lower than 2011. Turnover on the Nordic stock exchanges was low which affected commission income. Lower customer activity in areas such as securities, derivatives and new issues reflected the subdued macroeconomic environment and lowered the fee and commission income compared to 2011. There was an offsetting effect from lending, advisory and guarantee fees.

Net financial income increased by 29 per cent to SEK 4,579m (3,548). There was a GIIPS portfolio market valuation loss of SEK 612m in 2011. The corresponding loss in 2012 was SEK 10m, and there were also positive valuations in the liquidity portfolio. Income in the other business areas, as well as in the trading operations, which is customer driven, was stable.

Net life insurance income increased to SEK 3,428m (3,197) partly due to higher income from unit-linked insurance which was mainly related to the acquisition of SEB Life International. The equity markets improved, but there was a

negative impact from lower long-term interest rates on insurance liabilities.

Net other income was negative at SEK -439m (-135m) including a cost of SEK 402m relating to the repurchases of SEB covered bonds with short remaining maturities. Net other income included a positive effect from hedge accounting.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses amounted to SEK 23,652m (23,513).

SEK m Jan-Dec Jan-Dec Change
2012 2011 %
Costs pre IAS 19 22,198 22,986 -3
Increased pension costs 225 392 -43
Underlying costs post IAS 19 22,423 23,378 -4
Redundancy costs 413 135
Penalty fee Lithuania 63
Outcome vs cost cap 22,899 23,513 -3
IT-infrastructure write-off 753
Operating expenses 23,652 23,513 1

Underlying costs fell by 4 per cent. Excluding the IT write-off, total expenses amounted to SEK 22,899m.

Staff costs increased by 2 per cent due to higher redundancy costs. The average net number of employees in the continuing operations decreased by 126. Other expenses, such as marketing, IT, consultants, travel and premises costs, decreased.

Credit losses and provisions

Provisions for credit losses amounted to SEK 937m. In 2011 there was a reversal of SEK 778m following releases of provisions in the Baltic region. The provisions corresponded to a credit loss level of 8 basis points. The provisions for credit losses for the Group, excluding the Baltic region, equaled a credit loss level of 6 basis points. The provisions in the Baltic region equaled a credit loss level of 33 basis points.

Non-performing loans in the Group fell by 23 per cent in 2012 reflecting the continued strong asset quality as well as a small effect from the divestment of the Ukrainian retail operations. In the Baltic region non-performing loans fell by 22 per cent as loans continue to be written off against provisions.

Individually assessed impaired loans decreased by SEK 3,089m to SEK 8,001m since year-end 2011.

The Group's portfolio assessed loans past due >60 days decreased by SEK 1,094m since year-end 2011 to SEK 5,389m. The total reserve ratio for individually assessed impaired loans and the total non-performing loans coverage ratio at 74 and 66 per cent, respectively, increased somewhat from year-end 2011.

Income tax expense

Total income tax expense amounted to SEK 2,093m (2,942) corresponding to an effective tax rate of 15 per cent (20). The decrease is a result of the reduction of the Swedish corporate tax rate from 26.3 per cent to 22 per cent which is applicable

from 1 January 2013. In 2012, the deferred taxes related to Swedish income tax were revalued at 22 per cent, resulting in a positive one-off effect of SEK 1,1bn. The Group's effective tax rate next year will be approximately 20 per cent.

Discontinued operations

The net result from the discontinued operations improved to a loss of SEK 488m (1,155m). The divestment of both the German and Ukrainian retail operations were finalised during 2012. Certain closing work remained during the year and will also be performed through 2013. The result included a provision for credit losses in the amount of SEK 180m. It related to a syndicated loan to the Bell Group Ltd, now in liquidation, that dated back to 1986; before SEB's acquisition of BfG Bank in 1999.

Business volumes

Total assets as at year-end amounted to SEK 2,453bn (2,359bn). Loans to the public increased to SEK 1,236bn at year-end, an increase of SEK 50bn for the year. Deposits from the public amounted to SEK 862bn at year-end, unchanged from a year ago. In the Swedish Retail business, loans increased by 10 per cent to SEK 525bn and deposits by 8 per cent to SEK 216bn (excluding the Card business).

SEB's total credit portfolio increased to SEK 1,777bn (1,702). The household volumes increased by SEK 36bn. The combined corporate and property management portfolios grew by SEK 31bn.

At 31 December 2012, assets under management amounted to SEK 1,328bn (1,261). The net inflow of assets during the year was SEK 29bn and the market values increased by SEK 38bn. Assets under custody amounted to SEK 5,191bn (4,490).

Fixed-income securities

SEB's net position in fixed-income securities for investment, treasury and client facilitation purposes amounted to SEK 244bn (247). Five per cent of the total holdings, SEK 11.3bn, was GIIPS-related (14). GIIPS-related sovereign debt holdings amounted to SEK 0.3bn, all Italian. Spanish covered bonds amount to SEK 7.6bn, or 67 per cent of the GIIPS exposure.

Market risk

The trading business is customer flow-driven. This is confirmed by the fact that there were only two loss-making days during the year, at an average loss of SEK 4m. During 2012, Value-at-Risk in the trading operations averaged SEK 162m. On average, the Group should not expect to lose more than this amount during a ten-day period, with 99 per cent probability.

Liquidity and long-term funding

SEB's loan-to-deposit ratio was 134 per cent (129), excluding repos and debt instruments. During the year funding volumes, excluding subordinated debt, in the amount of SEK 70bn

matured and SEK 124bn was issued. 67 per cent of the new issuance was covered bonds.

The core liquidity reserve at year-end 2012 amounted to SEK 373bn (377). The total liquid resources, including net trading assets and unutilised collateral in the cover pool, amounted to SEK 632bn (556). At year-end the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) was 113 per cent. The USD and EUR LCR were both above 100 per cent. As of 1 January 2013, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority requires an LCR, according to a formula adapted for Sweden of 100 per cent in total and in EUR and USD, separately.

Capital position

SEB's reported capital ratios at year-end were negatively impacted by the cumulative effect from the implementation of the amendments to IAS 19 Employee benefits. The unrealised effect of SEK 7.9bn will be recovered in a higher rate environment as the major reason for the actuarial deficit stems from the sharp fall of the discount rate in the past several years. The capital ratios according to Basel III were unchanged from earlier estimates by the Bank as the IAS 19 effect had been included in estimates given.

The Basel II ratios were:

Dec

Dec 2011

RWA, SEK bn 879 828 828

* Pro forma – incl. the adjustment to equity from IAS 19 and CVA

In 2012, SEB's applications for using advanced internal ratings based (IRB) models to calculate non-retail real estate and shipping risk-weighted assets were approved by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority. This reduced RWA by SEK 42bn and 19bn, respectively. The increase in RWA from new business volumes of SEK 20bn was offset by the effects from process improvements in the amount of SEK 19bn. The stronger Swedish krona resulted in a decrease of RWA of SEK 10bn.

Dividend

The Board proposes to the AGM a dividend of SEK 2.75 per Class A and Class C share, which corresponds to a pay-out ratio of 52 per cent. The total dividend amounts to SEK 6,028m (3,836), calculated on the total number of issued shares as per 31 December 2012, including repurchased shares. The SEB share will be traded ex-dividend on 22 March 2013. The proposed record date for the dividend is 26 March 2013 and dividend payments will be disbursed on 2 April 2013. The proposal shall be seen with reference to the dividend policy, the outlook for the economic environment, the Group's earnings generation and capital situation.

Rating

SEB's long-term senior unsecured ratings are 'A1' (stable) 'A+' (negative outlook) and 'A+' (stable) by Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch, respectively.

In November 2012, Moody's revised its outlook for the Swedish banking system to stable. Moody's stated however that the outlook for the economy and Swedish corporate credit profile could be undermined by an economic downturn in Europe. S&P on the other hand put all major Swedish banks on negative outlook in November 2012 due the weakening economic outlook for Sweden which may lead to increasing economic risks for Swedish banks.

Risks and uncertainties

The macroeconomic 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. The medium-term outlook for the global economy is characterised by uncertainty. The policy measures globally to limit the risk of severe shocks to the economy, have created more stability to the financial system. However, a prolonged period of weak economic growth cannot be ruled out.

SEB assumes credit, market, liquidity, operational and life insurance risks. The risk composition of the Group, as well as the related risk management, is further described in SEB's Annual Report.

The Swedish tailoring and earlier implementation of the international Basel III regulatory framework in relation to capital, liquidity and funding standards could have long-term effects on asset and liability management and profitability of

the banking sector. The final outcome of the Basel III framework and its implementation within the EU is not yet finalised.

Realignment of management accounting

During the year SEB has continued to align the framework for capital and liquidity management in order to be compliant with the upcoming Basel III regulation for capital, liquidity and funding expected to be implemented in Sweden during 2013. SEB has allocated SEK 16bn more capital to the divisions from the central function during the first quarter 2012. In addition, internal funds transfer prices have been adjusted to more fully reflect the cost of funding and buffers of liquidity required going forward. As a result, divisional lending margins on loans to customers are lower compared to 2011, all else equal. Further capital allocations to the divisions are to be expected in 2013.

Revised long-term financial targets

The Board of Directors and management have reviewed SEB's long-term financial targets in light of the business plan for 2013-2015. Going forward SEB will aim to:

  • Pay a yearly dividend that is 40 per cent or above of the earnings per share
  • Target a common equity tier 1 ratio (Basel III) of 13 per cent and

  • Generate return on equity that is competitive with peers. This means that the Bank in the long-term aspires to reach a return on equity of 15 per cent.

Stockholm, 31 January 2013

The President declares that the Annual Accounts for 2012 provide a fair overview of the Parent Company's and the Group's operations, their financial position and results and describe material risks and uncertainties facing the Parent Company and the Group.

Accounting policies

This Interim Report is presented in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Group's consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations of these standards as adopted by the European Commission. The accounting follows the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies (1995:1559) and the regulation and general guidelines issued by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority: Annual reports in credit institutions and securities companies (FFFS 2008:25). In addition, the Supplementary accounting rules for groups (RFR 1) from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board have been applied. The Parent company has prepared its accounts in accordance with Swedish Annual Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's regulations and general guidelines (FFFS 2008:25) on annual reports in credit institutions and securities companies and the supplementary accounting rules for legal entities (RFR 2) issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board.

In the fourth quarter, the financial reporting is affected by changes in the Group's accounting policies in comparison with the 2011 Annual Report and the previous interim reports for 2011 and 2012. The change is related to the accounting of defined benefit plans due to amendments in IAS 19 Employee benefits that SEB has decided to adopt early. There are also effects from changes in the measurement of fair value of financial assets. The Parent company's financial reporting is affected by changes in the measurement of fair value of financial assets and the accounting for group contributions. In all other material aspects, the Group's and the Parent company's accounting policies, basis for calculations and presentations are unchanged in comparison with the 2011 Annual Report.

Defined benefit plans

IAS 19 Employee Benefits - The amendment removes the possibility to use the corridor method and to amortise actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit plans. The standard also requires an entity to apply the discount rate on the net defined benefit liability (asset) in order to calculate the net interest expense (income). It thereby removes the use of an expected return on the plan assets. The deficit at transition is reported in Retained earnings (equity). Subsequent

remeasurements of obligations and assets are recognised in Other comprehensive income. All changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as they occur, as follows: (i) service cost and net interest in the Income statement; and (ii) remeasurement in Other comprehensive income. In connection with the change of IAS 19 the statement UFR 9, regarding accounting of tax on returns on pension funds, issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board should be applied. According to UFR 9 taxes related to provisions in the Statement of financial position should continuously be reported as cost in the period the tax is attributable to. For funded pension plans the tax affects Other comprehensive income in the period the tax is attributable. The new requirements are applicable from 1 January 2013 but can be applied earlier. The change has a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group (for figures see the page 33 and the Statement of changes in equity). Since the amendment of IAS 19 affects the capital base it will also impact the capital adequacy.

Fair value measurement

In connection with enhanced capital requirements regarding counterparty credit risk on OTC-derivatives SEB has further developed both the valuation model and the risk measurement of this risk. The change implies a material adjustment for counterparty credit risk (Credit Value Adjustment, CVA) that reduces the asset value of OTCderivatives. Almost the entire effect is attributable to 2011 and earlier periods. The adjustment is recognised as a change in retained earnings as of 31 December 2011 since SEB has concluded that period-specific effects for previous periods are impracticable to determine. The effect attributable to 2012 isolated is not material. Changes attributable to the CVA effect will be recognised as Net financial income in the income statement. See page 33 and Statement of changes in equity for more information.

Group contributions

Group contributions are recognised in the Parent company as appropriations. Contributions received for 2011 were recognised as dividends. The change does not have a material effect on the Parent company's financial statements.

The SEB Group

Due to the changes in the accounting policies which are explained on page 2, the profit for 2011 has been restated in all tables and other information in this report, with the exception of the capital adequacy information.

* Repurchase of the Bank's covered bond porfolio has had a negative effect on Net other income of SEK 402m in Q4 2012. The negative amounts in Q4 2011 and Q1 2012 are mainly related to realised losses of securites classified as Available-for-Sale.

** As a result of the strategic review of the IT development portfolio, non-used parts of the portfolio have been derecognised as intangible assets. The cost, SEK 753m, arising from this has been recognised in Q4 2012.

*** The positiv income tax expense in Q4 2012 is a result of the reduction of the Swedish corporate tax rate, which has had a one-off effect of SEK 1,100m from revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Profit per country

*Excluding centralised treasury operations

  • •The growth plan resulted in higher operating income and operating profit in all Nordic countries
  • •SEB named Bank of the Year in all markets where it offers universal banking services

Comments on 2012

In Sweden, strengthening customer relationships continued to be top priority during the year and SEB was re-affirmed as the best client relationship bank in Sweden by Prospera and also named Bank of the Year by The Banker. Despite the lower interest rate environment in 2012, higher lending and deposit volumes contributed to a total net interest income level above the previous year. The Private Banking activity was high. For Sweden in total the operating profit increased by 11 per cent, mainly as a result of a lower cost base.

In Norway, operating profit increased by 15 per cent. Income from both Corporate Banking and Trading and Capital Markets increased and especially initiatives within Structured Finance, Shipping, Asset Financing and Loan Origination were successful. SEB was active in the corporate bond market which had a historical high number of issues.

In Denmark, operating profit increased by 23 per cent after a strong fourth quarter. In particular, trading and the growing corporate banking activities in Merchant Banking contributed to the all-time high result. Both Life and Wealth Management delivered results in line with the previous year. Operating expenses decreased by 4 per cent.

Finland reported a record result for 2012 and an increase in operating profit of 14 per cent. All business areas' performance improved and Trading and Capital Markets and Structured Finance did especially well. Wealth Management was ranked No.1 for the institutional client segment on quality.

In Germany operating profit decreased by 17 per cent. The Wealth Management result was negatively affected by the decision to liquidate the ImmoInvest fund. The Merchant Banking corporate business continued to grow and attracted 50 new customers. A strategic decision to focus the real estate business was taken.

In the Baltic region, 2011 included reversals of credit provisions which is the main reason for the negative changes of operating profit in the countries. Profit before credit losses decreased by 1 per cent in Estonia, by 35 per cent in Lithuania and increased by 6 per cent in Latvia. For the first time SEB was named Bank of the Year by The Banker in all three Baltic countries. (See also the information on the Baltic division).

•Customer franchise continued to strengthen in all markets

  • •Leading corporate bank in the Nordic region
  • •Solid profitability and further improved asset quality

Comments on 2012

2012 was characterised by a continued uncertainty and a number of measures were taken to calm the markets. The Nordic region continued to be seen as a safe haven, however, the overall slowdown towards the end of the year naturally affected the Nordic region as well. Many European stock exchanges closed the year with positive indices compared to double digit negative indices only one year ago.

Corporate investment levels including M&A activity remained subdued, which resulted in lower customer activity. SEB continued to focus on strengthening the customer franchise in spite of the rather turbulent market environment.

Operating income decreased by 5 per cent year-on-year and by 11 per cent compared with the last quarter of 2011, driven by lower customer activity in most business areas. Operating expenses for 2012 were down by 4 per cent compared with 2011. Asset quality remained strong and net credit losses consequently low. Operating profit amounted to SEK 7,109m, down 5 per cent year-on-year.

SEB's low trading risk profile, in combination with higher customer activity levels in capital markets as the disintermediation trend continued, generated stable operating profits for Trading & Capital Markets.

Global Transaction Services managed to broaden the customer base and could offset most of the effects from lower interest rates and lower export and import volumes. Assets under custody amounted to SEK 5,191bn (4,490).

Corporate Banking continued the healthy performance in 2012 and delivered a solid result across all areas.

The first phase of the growth initiatives, launched back in 2010, in the Nordic countries outside Sweden and in Germany was completed. During 2012, 94 new customers were added, bringing the total new clients to 296 since the start of 2010. The initiative also resulted in a stronger local franchise and more visibility in landmark transactions.

Comments on 2012

Retail Banking showed continued strength in 2012. Operating income increased by 9 per cent compared to 2011. The enhanced efficiency focus led to a decrease of operating expenses by 4 per cent, and the division's operating profit increased from SEK 3,128m to SEK 4,353m.

The mortgage portfolio grew by SEK 36bn to reach SEK 350bn, and margins increased somewhat. In order to protect the customers' financial position and SEB's balance sheet, SEB's amortisation requirements, starting in 2013, were communicated.

The strategic focus on long-term customer relationships led to improved offerings to retail customers, such as the launch of a new bank service to young adults as well as providing individual advice to 438,000 home bank customers. New features were launched to enhance remote support for customers, such as ATM mobile search functions and support for savings planning. The number of visits to SEB's mobile banking application increased markedly during the year and reached 31 million for the year.

The offering to small and medium-sized enterprises attracted 8,750 new active payment service customers to reach a total of 130,000. Corporate lending outperformed market growth and amounted to SEK 152bn at year-end.

Volatile stock markets led customers to lower their risk profiles by reallocating their savings towards deposits. This pressured commission income from life insurance and mutual funds. Deposits increased by SEK 16bn to SEK 216bn.

The operating profit in the card business in all Nordic markets reached SEK 1,123m (1,011m). The main reasons for the improvement were increased card turnover and lower funding costs. The underlying business was characterised by a high level of business activity. Costs are slightly up due to the implementation of a new co-brand agreement in Norway. The credit losses were stable at SEK 201m (220).

Card turnover increased by 11 per cent and the average transaction amount continued to fall reflecting that cards are increasingly used for sundry expenses. The number of cards increased by 8 per cent, to 3.5 million.

•Continued strong confidence from Private Banking customers: net sales AuM SEK 28bn and 1,214 new clients

•Awarded as Best Private Bank in the Nordic areas by the Financial Times Group

•Operating profit decreased

Comments on 2012

After the somewhat turbulent first six months in the equity market, the latter part of the year developed more positively and the stock markets recovered. However, risk appetite and customer activity in equity related products were low during the year due to the uncertainty in the equity stock markets.

During the year Private Banking maintained a high level of proactivity towards clients and attracted 1,214 new customers (1,335). New volumes of assets under management amounted to SEK 28bn (27). For the third consecutive year SEB was awarded the Global Private Banking Award as best private bank in the Nordic area by the magazines "The Banker" and "PWM" (Professional Wealth Management), both included in the Financial Times Group. To further improve customer service, a Private Banking office was opened in London.

Within Institutional Clients, there was focus on products that offer alternatives to the volatile stock markets. Customer interest in closed-end funds, such as Credit Opportunity III, as well as SEB's first institutional real estate fund in Sweden,

Domestica, was high. Within the fund offering, products such as corporate bonds, high yield funds, allocation and strategy funds have drawn customers' attention.

The operating profit of SEK 1,289m was down by 6 per cent compared with last year. Base commissions were down 6 per cent, partially because the average market values on assets under management were lower compared to 2011. There was an impact from the decision to liquidate the real estate fund ImmoInvest in Germany. However, the market values improved in the fourth quarter. Performance and transaction fees amounted to SEK 264m (399) mainly due to lower transaction fees from the real estate business in Germany and lower performance fees from mutual funds and mandates. Operating expenses, which amounted to SEK 2,744, decreased by 7 per cent compared to 2011 despite restructuring costs during the year.

Total assets under management amounted to SEK 1,228bn (1,175).

Life

The Life division offers life insurance products with a focus on unit-linked insurance for private individuals and corporate customers, mainly in Sweden, Denmark and the Baltic countries.

  • •Maintained leadership in the Swedish unit-linked market
  • •SEB Pension ranked as number one in the Danish pension market
  • •Operating profit increased 1 per cent in a subdued financial environment

Comments on 2012

In the Swedish market the focus on occupational pension and corporate clients continued. SEB's bankassurance concept was appreciated by clients.

A number of new products were launched in the Baltic area during the year, for example loan protection in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and family insurance in Latvia. Enhanced advisory service and on-line solutions were well received in the Danish market where SEB Pension ranked number one in the pension market in terms of customer satisfaction (according to the Aalund report).

Operating profit increased by 1 per cent compared to last year. Unit-linked income, which represents 59 per cent of total income and 83 per cent of sales, increased by 7 per cent, due to the acquisition of SEB Life International. Income from traditional and risk insurance increased by 3 per cent. Expenses decreased by 2 per cent adjusted for SEB Life International.

In Sweden, SEB Trygg Liv continued to be the market leader within unit-linked insurance. Recoveries of provisions in the traditional business were SEK 43m (-53). Operating profit amounted to SEK 1,307m which was virtually unchanged from last year. During the year the total fund value increased by SEK 11bn to SEK 138bn.

Operating profit in Denmark increased slightly and amounted to SEK 585m which was 2 per cent higher than last year. The improvement was due to a 10 per cent cost reduction. Income fell partly due to lower return from the own account investment portfolio.

Operating profit for International improved significantly from last year's SEK 91m to SEK 168m. The improvement was mainly due to higher investment returns from traditional portfolios in Estonia and Latvia. SEB Life International (formerly Irish Life) was fully integrated into SEB and supported income growth.

The premium income relating to new and existing policies amounted to SEK 27bn for the division which was 6 per cent lower than last year. The weighted sales volume of new policies decreased by 9 per cent to SEK 39bn and reflected lower volumes in the Swedish endowment market. The share of corporate paid policies increased to 76 per cent (68).

The total fund value in unit-linked insurance increased by SEK 17bn to 204bn. The net inflow was SEK 3bn and the appreciation in value was SEK 14bn or 7 per cent. Total net assets under management amounted to SEK 443bn.

Comments on 2012

Following the severe economic downturn between 2008 and 2010, GDP growth in 2012 was above the Euro area average in each of the three Baltic economies. Consumer confidence also increased in the region as unemployment levels eased somewhat.

Operating income of SEK 3,301m was 1 per cent higher than in 2011 when adjusted for a strengthened Swedish krona. The operating profit of SEK 918m (2,917) included net credit losses of SEK 351m (net recovery of SEK 1,485m in 2011). There was an increase in credit losses in Latvia during the year due to legacy issues. Non-performing loans declined by 22 per cent in 2012 and the non-performing loans coverage ratio has increased slightly to 61 per cent.

Operating expenses increased by 5 per cent. In the fourth quarter two one-off operating expense items in Lithuania affected the result. SEK 148m was provided for a write-down

of a core banking system and SEK 63m was provided for an anti-trust penalty fee, which SEB will appeal. Excluding these two items, operating expenses decreased by 6 per cent.

The Baltic loan volumes of SEK 97bn grew in local currency terms during the year. The lending margins were relatively stable. Performing loan volumes grew by 1 per cent in local currency terms and corporate loans grew in all countries.

Total deposit volumes of SEK 68bn increased by 7 per cent in the year in local currency terms, with a 4 per cent growth during the fourth quarter. Overall deposit margins declined in each of the Baltic countries, reflecting the low prevailing interest rate environment throughout the year.

At year-end, SEB's Baltic real estate holding companies held assets with a total book value of SEK 2,162m (1,455). The operating loss for 2012 was SEK 98m (63).

RWA 31 December 2012 586

Un-floored Basel II RWA was 46 per cent lower than Basel I RWA. 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 a small number of insignificant portfolios.

The Basel III framework

The Basel III framework is in the process of being incorporated into EU legislation through the regulatory directive, CRD IV. Due to delays in the EU process the planned implementation date of 1 January 2013 was not met and as a consequence, the Swedish transition rules, which limit the effect on the RWA, were extended to include 2013.

The CRD IV establishes explicit minimum levels for common equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 capital and requires banks to hold more and higher quality capital. RWA will mainly be affected by an additional so called credit value adjustment requirement for OTC-derivatives, new requirements for exposures towards central counterparties, and an increase in risk weights for exposures towards financial institutions.

The Swedish government proposed stricter common equity tier 1 capital ratio requirements than under Basel III; 10 per cent from 2013 and 12 per cent from 2015 (with capital and RWA defined according to fully implemented CRD IV / Basel III framework). Because of the delays in the legislative process at the EU level, Swedish authorities were not able to implement the stricter capital requirements as planned and are not expected to do so before the end of 2013.

The following table summarises average risk weights (Risk-Weighted Assets, RWA, divided by Exposure At Default, 'EAD') for exposures where RWA is calculated following the internal ratings based (IRB) approach. Repos and securities

lending transactions are excluded from the analysis since they carry low risk-weight and can vary considerably in volume, thus making numbers less comparable.

IRB reported credit exposures (less repos and securities lending)

Retail mortgages* 10,4% 12,1%
Other retail exposures 37,4% 37,5%

* On 26 November 2012 the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority announced a planned increase of capital requirements for Swedish retail mortgages. This will be achieved by a 15 per cent minimum level of mortgage risk weights and an additional capital requirement under Pillar 2. The suggested minimum level was expected and favors SEB on a relative basis, but the Pillar 2 implementation raises questions about the practical implication.

The decline in corporate risk-weights is mainly due to implementation of a non-retail real estate LGD-model and a shipping LGD-model in the parent company.

Restatement of Financial Statements – SEB Group

The restatement is related to the accounting of defined benefit plans due to amendments in IAS 19 Employee benefits. The amendment removes the possibility to use the corridor method. The standard also requires an entity to apply the discount rate on the net defined benefit liability in order to calculate the net interest expense. The initial effect is reported against retained earnings as of 1 January 2011 and subsequent changes are reported in Staff costs and OCI.

The restatement also reflects changes in the measurement of fair value of financial assets from development of the valuation model and risk measurement of Credit Value Adjustment (CVA). The adjustment is recognised as a change in retained earnings as of 31 December 2011. The effect attributable to 2012 isolated is not material.

Market risk

The Group's risk taking in trading operations is primarily measured by value at risk, VaR. The Group has chosen a level of 99 per cent probability and a ten-day time-horizon for reporting. In the day-today risk management of trading positions, SEB follows up limits with a one-day time horizon.

All risk exposures are well within the Board's decided limits and the utilization remained low.

The market risk in the total Trading Book has decreased further during Q4 compared to Q3, mostly in the Merchant Banking area due to lower risk appetite in combination with lower market volatility. Following the decreased risk appetite, the Board has decided to decrease the aggregated VaR limit for the total Trading Book which has now been lowered from previously SEK 1,300 m to SEK 800 m. Despite this decrease, the limit utilization on aggregated level was 15% at year end with an average of 20% for 2012.

In Q1 2012, SEK 16bn more capital has been allocated to the divisions from the central function.

1) Effects from adjustments of the calculation method. Q1 2012 is also related to the newly acquired subsidiary SEB Life International.

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

3) The actual outcome of previously signed contracts can be compared with earlier assumptions and deviations can be calculated. The most important components consist of extensions of contracts as well as cancellations.

4) Acquisition costs are capitalised in the accounts and amortised according to plan. Certain front end fees are also recorded on the balance sheet and recognized as revenue in the income statement during several years. The reported change in surplus values is adjusted by the net effect of changes in deferred acquisition costs and deferred front end fees during the period.

5) Assumed investment return (growth in fund values) is 5.0 per cent gross before fees and taxes. Actual return results in positive or negative financial effects.

6) In Q4 2012 higher assumed transfers in Sweden had a negative effect of some SEK 400m. Q4 2012 was also negatively affected by almost SEK 300m due to higher assumed expenses in Sweden. Q2-3 2012 was positively affected by lower assumed expenses and bonus rate in Denmark and negatively affected by a higher assumed surrender rate for "Kapitalpension" policies in Sweden. In Q4 2011 a lowering of the discount rate had a positive effect of some SEK 800m but lower expected growth in fund values had a negative effect of some SEK 300m and higher frequency of surrenders, lapse and transfers had a negative effect of some SEK 700m.

7) The calculated surplus value is not included in the SEB Group's consolidated accounts. The closing balance is net of capitalised acquisition costs and deferred front end fees.

Net profit attributable to equity holders for the year as a percentage of average shareholders equity.

Return on business equity

Operating profit reduced by a standard tax rate per division, as a percentage of business equity.

Return on total assets

Net profit attributable to equity holders as a percentage of average assets.

Return on risk-weighted assets

Net profit attributable to equity holders as a percentage of average risk-weighted assets.

Cost/Income-ratio

Basic earnings per share

Net profit attributable to equity holders for the year as a percentage of the average number of shares.

Diluted earnings per share

Net profit attributable to equity holders for the year divided by the average diluted number of shares.

Net worth per share

Shareholders' equity plus the equity portion of any surplus values in the holdings of interest-bearing securities and surplus value in life insurance operations as a percentage of the number of shares.

Risk-weighted assets

Total assets and off balance sheet items, weighted in accordance with capital adequacy regulation for credit risk. It is customary to also express regulatory capital requirements for market and operational risk as risk-weighted assets, yielding a total RWA number for these three risk categories. Defined only for the Financial Group of Undertakings which excludes insurance entities.

Tier 1 capital

Shareholders' equity excluding proposed dividend, deferred tax assets, intangible assets (e.g. bank-related goodwill) and certain other adjustments. Tier 1 capital can also include qualifying forms of subordinated loans (Tier 1 capital contribution).

Core Tier 1 capital

Tier 1 capital excluding Tier 1 capital contribution.

Tier 2 capital
