Solidity

CET1 ratio of 18.9% (18.0) as at 31. December 2022

FSA announced on 30. April 2022 that SpareBank 1 SMN is to have a temporary 0.7 per cent in additional Pillar 2-requirement and Pillar 2 guidance of 1.25 per cent in addition to CET1-requirements.

The groups long term CET1 target is 17.2 per cent

CET1 ratio decreased in Q4 following reversed basis swap effects from SB 1 Boligkreditt. A strong quarterly result mitigates some of the negative CET1 effects.

CET1

Leverage ratio

The Group's climate footprint – starting point for transitioning

  • The loan portfolio represents an emission of 1.1 mill tCO2e in 2022, about 98% of the Group's total climate gas emissions
  • Concentrated emission profile where agriculture and shipping related segments are dominant
  • Emissions are estimated based on the PCAF industry standard, but there is uncertainty with regards to data quality
  • The reporting serves as a guideline for the Group's work in achieving net zero emissions by 2050

Transition plans will help SMN reach net zero by 2050

Plans are to be established per sector

  • Transition plans include emission trajectories and measures to realise the ambition of net zero emissions by 2050
  • The plans will contribute to a predictable and organised transition while at the same time reducing our clients' vulnerability from climate change
  • Transition plans for agriculture, households, fisheries and commercial real estate are in place. Other industries to be finalised during 2023
