Aabenraa, 2011-10-27 08:05 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Sydbank participated in the 2011 EU-wide stress test conducted by the European
Banking Authority (EBA) in cooperation with national authorities, the European
Central Bank (ECB), the European Commission and the European Systemic Risk
Board (ESRB). Danmarks Nationalbank and the Danish FSA participated as the
national authorities from Denmark.

In continuation of the stress test, which was published in July 2011, Sydbank
has reported updated information concerning government exposures and capital
position to the EBA.

Compared to the stress test published in July 2011, the EBA has raised the
minimum requirement for the Core Tier 1 capital ratio from 5.0% to 9.0%.

Sydbank's Core Tier 1 capital ratio measured by the EBA constitutes 12.2%,
equal to 3.2 percentage points above the minimum requirement. These are
preliminary and indicative ratios, which will be updated on the basis of data
as of 30 September 2011.

Sydbank does not require increased capitalisation to meet the fixed minimum
requirement of 9.0%.
