Strong underlying operations

  • Q3 affected by seasonal variations and extraordinary events Tax expense adjustment and asset value write-down at SpareBank 1 Mobilitet negatively impact profit. Seasonal variations at Regnskapshuset, estate agency services and SB1 Markets along with a negative result at SB1 Group in the quarter.
  • Prepared for a lower demand ahead

SMN focuses its growth strategy on attractive geographical locations, customer segments and increased synergies in finance centres.

SMN aspires to strengthen its market position.

Solid position, capital adequacy well above regulatory requirements

Bank establishes financial health team

The cost of living is rising sharply and financial advisors at SpareBank 1 SMN more and more often encounter customers who are struggling to cope with the increased costs. The bank is therefore establishing a financial health team.

The financial health team will adopt a preventive approach to managing debt but will also seek to ensure that the high cost of living does not contribute to greater financial problems, social isolation and mental health issues for those who are already struggling.

Preventive initiatives focusing on vulnerable customer segments
