3Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
Nordnet is a leading digital platform for savings and investments
with operations in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. With user-
friendliness, good availability, a broad offering and low prices, we give our
customers the opportunity to take their savings to the next level.
This is
Nordnet
The overarching purpose of Nordnet’s business
is to democratize savings and investments. By
that, we mean giving private savers access to
the same information and tools as professional
investors. This purpose has driven us from the
outset in 1996 and remains our direction to
this day. At the beginning, it entailed offering
easily accessible and inexpensive stock trading
over the internet, and building a fund portal
with products from a number of different
distributors, where savers could easily compare
returns, risk and fees. During the journey, we
have simplified matters and put pressure on
fees for services like pension savings, index
funds and private banking. In recent years, we
have democratized savings and investments
through, for example, our stock lending
program, the launch of the Danish livrente
pension product, cost effective index funds
as well as our flexible and digital investment
insurance. We are always on the savers’ side,
and pursue issues of, for example, fair terms in
pension savings free-of-charge and reasonable
and predictable taxation of holdings of shares
and mutual funds.
Vision
Our vision is to become the first choice for
savers in the countries where we operate. T o
achieve this goal we always need to challenge
and innovate, keeping user-friendliness and
the benefit of savings at the top of the agenda
and to succeed with the ambition of building a
"one-stop shop" for savings and investments
– a platform that can meet the needs of private
savers in managing their financial futures. Only
then can we achieve the high level of customer
satisfaction and brand strength required to
become a leader in our markets in terms of
attracting new customers and producing loyal
ambassadors for Nordnet.
Our product areas
Savings and investments
Nordnet’s core business is saving and
investments. Our customers can save and
invest in shares, funds and other types of
securities across several markets at low fees.
We offer most account types that are available
on the market, such as ISK in Sweden and its
Nordic equivalents, regular custody accounts,
occupational pension, endowment insurance
and accounts for private pension savings.
At Nordnet, there are a number of different
interfaces available including the web, the app
and more advanced applications. The less-
active savers can also use one of our digital
guidance services or invest in our index funds.
Nordnet operates the Nordic region’s largest
social investment network Nordnet Social, with
more than half a million members.
Pensions
In Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland,
we offer pension savings with a wide range of
investment opportunities.
Loans
Nordnet offers two kinds of loans – margin
lending and mortgages. Margin lending with
securities as collateral is available in all of
our markets and allows our customers to add
leverage to their investments. Our mortgages
are offered in Sweden and Norway.

5Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
In my first letter to you last quarter,
I laid out our mandate for a new
pace at Nordnet: a culture of
accountability, product focus and
rapid execution. Our performance in
the second quarter of 2026 reflects
this approach. We are executing with
clear momentum, delivering a record-
breaking performance with revenue of
SEK 1,634 million and a profit before
tax of SEK 1,190 million.
“With millions of Nordic
savers on the platform,
our business model is
demonstrating significant
operating leverage. Every
structural improvement
we make to our platform
compounds across four
countries, 2.5 million
customers and nearly
SEK 1.4 trillion in savings
capital.”
We have established a business model
where our success is directly aligned
with that of our savers. When our
customers do well, Nordnet does well.
Following a volatile start to the year, the
second quarter saw a strong recovery
in the stock markets. Because our
savers kept cool heads during the Q1
dips, they were positioned to capture
this rising tide. With millions of Nordic
savers on the platform, our business
model is demonstrating significant
operating leverage. Every structural
improvement we make to our platform
compounds across four countries, 2.5
million customers and nearly SEK 1.4
trillion in savings capital, driving down
unit costs and allowing us to continue
to invest in this very competitive
market.
T o accelerate this pace further, we must
keep our organization flat and close
to the product. Following a change in
T ech leadership, we have delayered
our technology organization to mirror
the flattened Product organization
we put in place last quarter. This
ensures that the management of our
development pipeline remains where it
belongs: close to the code.
Q2 2026: The Power of Scale
Performance remains the only true
measure of our strategy. Our execution
in Q2 has delivered strong commercial
momentum:
Customer onboarding
Last quarter, I noted that our
onboarding process had too much
friction. We attacked this bottleneck
head-on. Thanks to a new team
focusing on conversion optimization,
we have started the work to smooth
the activation funnel. These initial
improvements have already supported
a strong customer intake, with 74,000
new customers joining Nordnet during
the quarter.
The return of IPOs
The IPO market has reawakened.
Nordnet's pan-Nordic retail placing
power has made us the partner of
choice for global coordinators bringing
T o Our Partners in
Progress: Building
Scale and Speed
companies to market. We supported
with retail distribution in no fewer
than 10 IPOs in the quarter, with the
milestone of course being SpaceX
IPO, which helped drive both efficient
customer acquisition and strong net
savings.
The scale flywheel
With rising markets and robust
customer inflows, our savings capital
continues to scale. During the quarter,
we attracted SEK 26 billion in net
savings, which together with positive
markets brought our total savings
capital to almost SEK 1.4 trillion. The
Nordnet machine we’ve built allows us
to support this volume expansion with
very low incremental costs.
Navigating the Supercycle
The macroeconomic landscape
continues to be a story of short-term
friction versus long-term acceleration.
While reignited geopolitical tensions
in the Middle East remain a source of
market volatility, there’s a powerful
structural tailwind beneath this noise:
the AI supercycle. What started as
a rally in a few obvious AI winners
has broadened into a much larger
investment theme. Semiconductors are
still at the centre but the opportunity
set now extends to data centres,
cloud capacity, networking, electricity,
cooling, automation and cybersecurity.
Our customers are not passive
observers of these trends; they
are active, sophisticated market
participants. Trading activity this
quarter reached historical highs,

ownership. Nordnet is positioning itself
to be a winner in this historic shift. Our
coming launch in Germany is the first
step in creating a repeatable playbook
for European expansion.
2. Double-down on our platform
We have upgraded our ability to
translate product ideas into customer
value in weeks rather than quarters.
In Q2, we introduced a AI chatbot to
answer customer inquiries instantly,
with quality and at scale. We also rolled
out Nordnet Social, a major upgrade
to our social investing experience
that allows savers to collaborate,
share ideas and follow other investors
seamlessly. We have extended our US
pre-market trading window, moving
the opening bell for US equities from
13:00 Swedish time all the way forward
to 10:00. Our customers can now act
on events hours before Wall Street
opens. Our captive fund company
now boasts SEK100bn in assets under
management and in the quarter, we
expanded our fund line-up further
by launching the first German index
fund in the Nordics which already has
SEK100m in AUM within its first month.
Watch out for more exciting fund news!
3. Harnessing agentic AI
Our commitment to agentic AI is
yielding real-world productivity gains.
We are moving beyond theoretical use
cases as AI is now actively embedded
in our engineering loop. Some 60%
of the code at the end of the second
quarter was co-authored by agentic AI,
reducing our time-to-market for new
features.
Looking Ahead: Clear the
Roadblocks
A corporate culture can easily default
to complacency. At Nordnet, we
actively combat this. It is always “Day
1” which means we maintain a flat
hierarchy, short decision loops and an
obsession with customer value.
averaging almost 300,000 trades per
day, reminiscent of the retail trading
peaks of 2021. However, the behavior
we see today is far more mature.
We are witnessing calculated sector
rotations as savers navigate macro
shifts with impressive discipline.
Furthermore, 43% of these trades
were cross-border transactions, as our
customers increasingly look beyond
their home markets to capture global
investment opportunities.
For Nordnet, this high engagement
highlights the resilience of our
transactional revenue. Simultaneously,
our deposit base remains robust,
supported by dividends and strong net
savings in the quarter, ensuring our net
interest income is on a stable, upward
trajectory as interest rates edge higher.
Our Three "Must Win" Battles
We continue to focus our energy on
our three strategic frontiers:
1. Germany and our further European
expansion
The preparations for our entry into
Europe’s largest savings market is
progressing according to plan. We
have officially opened our new office
in Frankfurt and initiated an iterative,
phased rollout of our platform. Key
functionalities are now being tested by
our own staff. This fall, we will expand
this closed testing to a “friends &
family” phase, followed by a broader
release before year-end.
This step-by-step launch allows us to
build the service in close dialogue with
our early users, refining the product
based on real-time feedback. We are
deliberately holding back on a major
marketing push until next year, timing it
instead to coincide with the launch of
the landmark German pension account
reform.
Just as the ISK transformed Sweden
into a nation of stock-savers, we
believe the new German pension
framework will drive a culture of equity
“Our fund business has
quietly grown into one of
the largest players outside
the traditional major banks,
while we remain the largest
domestic broker in the
Nordics.”
As is evident in the quarter, we are
delivering robust growth across both
customer intake and net savings
and have facilitated very high
market activity from Nordic savers.
We have cemented our position
as a powerhouse IPO distributor,
participating in virtually every
major transaction in the Nordics.
Simultaneously, our fund business has
quietly grown into one of the largest
players outside the traditional major
banks, while we remain the largest
domestic broker in the Nordics. And,
we are backing all of this up with a
record-breaking financial result.
Our focus for the second half of the
year is simple: clear the remaining
roadblocks for our German launch,
keep shipping industry-first features
and maintain the operational discipline
that drives our innovation.
T o our customers: Thank you for your
continued trust. We will keep building
the platform you deserve.
T o our shareholders: We greatly value
having you with us on this journey.

7Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
The second quarter of 2026 consisted of a mix of
geopolitical uncertainty, shifting interest rate expectations,
and a strong earnings season. While major US indices
such as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq surged towards new
records, the Nordic region saw a more mixed development.
The Swedish, Danish, and Finnish stock exchanges rose,
in some cases by close to 10 percent. The Oslo Stock
Exchange experienced a more moderate development
which ultimately led to a minor correction. Despite this,
Nordnet’s Norwegian customers handled the downturn
well – they actively adjusted their portfolios, utilized market
fluctuations to their advantage, and capitalized on new
opportunities.
The quarter began with rising tensions in the Middle East,
which had a major impact on the Norwegian stock market
due to its heavy exposure to energy.
Many customers took advantage of the upturns in the energy
sector to secure profits, resulting in significant trading
volumes. Instead of withdrawing from the market, Nordnet’s
customers used periods of weaker stock market performance
to increase their exposure. Capital flowed back into global
index funds, technology funds, as well as energy and
shipping companies, reflecting a continued willingness to buy
into long-term growth themes despite short-term uncertainty.
At the same time, customers reduced their exposure to some
of the year's best-performing, more niche sectors, including
defense, nuclear power and gold, indicating some profit-
taking and portfolio rebalancing.
The appetite for equity-related investments remained strong
throughout the quarter. During April and May, one of the
year's most significant corporate events occurred on the
Oslo Stock Exchange: the spin-off of Kongsberg Maritime
from the defense group Kongsberg Gruppen. The transaction
generated very high trading activity and strengthened
Kongsberg's position as one of the most widely followed
companies among Norwegian retail investors. T owards the
end of the period, savers shifted their attention across the
Atlantic as SpaceX completed its highly anticipated initial
public offering. The listing marked a milestone for European
retail investors, who for the first time were given the
opportunity to participate directly in a major US IPO. Nordnet
was proud to act as a distributor of the offering, which was
available to customers in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.
Overall, the second quarter highlighted the increasing
financial literacy and maturity of Norwegian savers. Rather
than reacting emotionally to geopolitical headlines or market
volatility, our customers remained engaged and disciplined.
By diversifying into broad market funds and tactically shifting
between sectors as conditions changed, they actively
realized profits. The quarter serves as a reminder that long-
term savings is not about avoiding uncertainty, but about
navigating it with knowledge, patience, and a clear strategy.

Nordnet’s
Sustainability work
Nordnet aims to make it easy to save
and invest sustainably. In line with
this ambition, we want to provide a
wide range of sustainable investment
options as well as offer information
and functionality that simplify
things for customers who want to
save sustainably. T o measure and
follow up on Nordnet’s progress in
sustainability, we report a number of
key metrics in our interim reports, as
well as additional metrics on an annual
basis. More information about targets
and activities can be found in our
sustainability report.
During the quarter
During the quarter, the interactive tool
Fondkompassen (the Fund Compass)
was launched in Sweden to help retail
investors find funds based on personal
sustainability criteria. By answering
questions about which sustainability
issues are most important from the
individual saver's perspective and
which industries they want to avoid, the
user receives a customized profile and
a list of matching funds. The tool then
visualizes how well the funds match the
profile, and shows historical returns.
The service is a collaboration between
Nordnet and the fintech company
Fundrella. Fondkompassen makes
advanced data, previously reserved
only for institutional investors, available
to regular savers to make sustainable
saving simpler and more transparent.
Nordnet has had its sustainability rating
from MSCI upgraded from A to AA,
which is the second-highest possible
rating and means that the company is
now classified as a "Leader". Nordnet
is currently included in three of MSCI's
sustainability indices: MSCI Europe
Small Cap ESG Broad CTB Select
Index, MSCI World Small Cap ESG
Enhanced CTB Index, and MSCI World
Small Cap ESG Broad CTB Select
Index. These indices aim to increase
exposure to positive ESG factors while
maintaining a risk and return profile
similar to the broader indices on which
they are based.
Sustainable savings
The share of savings capital invested
in sustainability-classified funds out
of total fund capital amounted to 87
percent at the end of the quarter, which
is one percentage point higher than
the previous quarter. Of this share,
4 percentage points are invested in
sustainable (dark green) funds, which
is the same level as the previous
quarter.
Nordnet supports the Paris Agreement
to keep global warming well below
2°C and strive to limit it to 1.5°C. In line
with this ambition, Nordnet has defined
an overarching goal that the carbon
footprint from the savings capital on
Nordnet’s platform shall decrease in
accordance with the Paris Agreement.
Nordnet targets a reduction in carbon
intensity of 55 percent over ten years,
from 2023 to 2033. We also have a
goal to reach net zero emissions by
2050.
Nordnet measures the carbon footprint
as portfolio-weighted carbon intensity.
Carbon intensity for a company is
calculated as emissions divided by
revenue. T o aggregate intensity to
the portfolio level, the companies'
intensities are weighted by the share
that the companies represent in the
portfolio. With this method, portfolios
become comparable with each other
over time regardless of the size of the
portfolio.
At the base year 2023, the intensity
of the savings capital was 143 tons
CO2e/million USD revenue. At the
end of the second quarter of 2026,
the carbon intensity amounted to
87 tons CO2e/million USD revenue,
which can be compared with 89 tons
in the same quarter the previous year,
corresponding to a decrease of 2
percent. Compared to the previous
quarter, the intensity decreased by 8
percent, as it amounted to 94 tons.
At the end of the quarter, data was
available for 86 percent of the capital.
The change in carbon intensity can
be due to reallocations in customers'
portfolios, to the companies our
customers are invested in increasing
or decreasing their emissions, and to
relative market development of the
customers' assets, which re-weights
the holdings on the platform. The
measure is also affected by currency
movements as revenues in the
companies are converted to US dollars.
For comparison, the intensity of the
broad global stock index MSCI World
amounted to 100 tons CO2e/million
USD revenue at the end of the quarter.
This corresponds to a decrease of 6
percent on an annual basis (from 106
tons), but an increase of 5 percent
compared to the previous quarter.

Gender equality in savings
Our long-term goal is to reach a customer base with 50
percent (+/- 10 percentage points) women. The share of
female customers amounted to 35.5 percent at the end
of the second quarter of 2026, which is an increase of
0.6 percentage points compared to the same quarter the
previous year, when the share amounted to 34.9 percent.
Parallel to our long-term goal, we have a more short-term
goal to increase the share of women among new customers
by 2 percentage points per year. During the quarter, women
accounted for 37.6 percent of new customers, which is a
decrease of 1.2 percentage points compared to the same
quarter the previous year and a decrease of 6.4 percentage
points from the previous quarter. The decrease is largely
explained by the fact that Nordnet acted as a distributor in a
large number of IPO processes during the quarter, including
SpaceX, and that the initial public offerings attracted more
interest from men than from women.
T o achieve our goals regarding gender-equal savings,
we focus on increasing women's interest in savings and
investments through various activities. This includes lectures,
networking meetups, education, highlighting female role
models, and spreading statistics and information about
women's savings. Nordnet runs the network Nordnet Female
Network, which is a platform to highlight the issue of female
savings. The network exists in Sweden, Finland, and Norway.
During the quarter, the work to drive gender-equal savings
forward continued at high speed, with a strong focus on
networking, education, and inspiring collaborations. In
Sweden, a launch event for Fondkompassen was held
together with Fundrella, attracting hundreds of women,
alongside the podcast PengaStark and the interview series
"Min sparresa" (My savings journey) hosting prominent
female profiles from the financial and business sectors.
In Denmark, "Nordnet Starterpack" was launched – a
concept that enables women to organize investment
evenings themselves – which was followed up by influencer
collaborations and webinars. Finland launched the savings
package "Money Mingle", which makes it easy to invest
together with friends. The package includes presentations
in Swedish and Finnish with basic information that inspires
getting started with saving. In addition to this, joint events
and finfluencer campaigns focusing on equity analysis and
funds were organized.

save and invest sustainably, as well as reporting of the key
metrics we track, can be found in our sustainability report at

The number of customers increased during the quarter
by 73,600 and amounted to a total of 2,502,200 as of 30
June. Customer growth was 13 percent over the past twelve
months.
The number of trades increased by 17 percent compared to
the second quarter of 2025 to 17.6 million, and the traded
value on the stock exchange increased by 32 percent to SEK
532 billion. Cross-border trading accounted for 43 percent of
the number of trades and 40 percent of the traded value, the
highest figures recorded during a single quarter. This can be
compared to 33 percent for both the number of trades and
traded value during the second quarter of 2025. During the

11Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
Savings capital in Nordnet-branded funds surpassed SEK
100 billion in assets under management during the quarter
and represents 30 percent of the total fund capital on the
platform, which is an increase from 27 percent in the second
quarter of 2025.
Pension savings capital, including endowment wrappers,
amounted to SEK 314 billion, which is an increase of 28
percent compared to the second quarter of 2025. Pension
capital excluding endowment wrappers amounted to SEK
147 billion, which is an increase of 31 percent compared
to the second quarter of 2025. T otal net savings within
pensions amounted to SEK 3.8 billion, of which Denmark
accounted for the largest share at SEK 2.1 billion. This is the
highest level to date in Denmark during a single quarter.
The loan portfolio amounted to SEK 31.4 billion at the end of
the quarter, an increase of 16 percent over the past twelve
months. Margin lending, which accounts for 60 percent
of the lending volume, increased by 19 percent during the
same period and amounted to SEK 18.7 billion. Mortgages
amounted to SEK 12.7 billion, which is 13 percent higher than
the second quarter of 2025. The average lending rate during
the quarter was 3.6 (4.0) percent, which is the same as the
previous quarter.
Deposits amounted to SEK 95 billion at the end of the
quarter, a decrease of SEK 2 billion during the quarter. The
decrease is a result of record-high net buying of primarily
exchange-traded instruments during the quarter, which
exceeded the positive contribution from both net savings
and dividends. Customers' deposits as a share of savings
capital is 6.9 percent, which is 1.1 percentage points lower
than the previous quarter. Deposits in accounts that pay
interest constitute 24 (34) percent of deposits, an increase
of 1 percentage point from the previous quarter. The average
interest cost for deposits during the quarter was 0.42 (0.52)
percent, 3 basis points lower than the previous quarter.
T ech development
Software delivery performance2: During the quarter, 96
percent of our development teams performed in line with
the high or elite level criteria, compared to 91 percent
in the previous quarter. For reference, 41 percent of the
development teams included in the global 2024 DORA
report performed at a high or elite level.
Progress on cloud migration3: By the end of the quarter, 59
percent of Nordnet’s applications were running on our cloud
platform.
Platform availability4: Platform availability during the quarter
was 99.9 percent.
Product launches, market updates and
events
During the quarter, we have taken important steps in our
technological journey by developing several AI-based
features. We can now generate company insights in-house
and, thanks to reduced reliance on external suppliers, launch
new updates at a faster pace. A concrete result of this is clear
visibility into how companies' revenues are distributed by
product segment and geographical market. Our AI extracts
the data directly from company reports, which is then
visualized in graphs on the company page. This gives the
customer an immediate overview of the company's actual
revenue streams.
Preparations for the upcoming launch in Germany are
proceeding according to plan. During the quarter, we initiated
a phase where critical flows – such as onboarding, deposits,
withdrawals, and trading – are tested in a live environment.
The test phase provides us with valuable insights ahead of
the external launch on the German market later this year.
In Sweden and Norway, we have introduced a web-based
chatbot that helps customers with general questions about
Nordnet's services and products. The chatbot has proven to
have a very high accuracy rate, with few cases escalated to
customer service, which means that more customers receive
immediate answers while simultaneously freeing up internal
resources. Shortly, the chatbot will also be launched in
Denmark and Finland, as well as in the app.
T o provide customers with even better conditions to make
sound investment decisions, we have broadened access
to market data. Free real-time data for European markets is
now automatically activated for all customers on the web and
in the app. In addition, we have upgraded our Smart Order
Router, which is an automated and algorithm-driven engine
that ensures orders are executed at the best available price
on the market. This improvement gives our customers access
to more liquidity and the opportunity to trade at better prices
on Nasdaq Nordic.

12Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
The digital experience in the mobile app has been further
strengthened through several important updates. After
feedback from our customers, we are now introducing
aggregated news directly in the watchlists, aligning the
news flow with the content of the list. New tools for deeper
portfolio analysis have been added. In the app, customers
can now view the portfolio's underlying asset allocation, and
we have added a forward-looking tool that estimates future
dividends based on analyst consensus from FactSet.
During the quarter, our social investment network Shareville
changed its name to Nordnet Social in order to strengthen
our main brand and make the value of the service more self-
explanatory to customers. The name change is a natural step
that reflects how the network has evolved from a standalone
platform into a fully integrated part of our app and web.
Nordnet Social has also been further developed by adding
a top list to every instrument page in the app. The feature
makes it easy for customers to find and be inspired by others
who own the company.
A new feature that simplifies customers' everyday lives is the
possibility of real-time currency exchange via the mobile app.
This makes it easy to manage currency balances and thereby
gain greater control over one's currency exposures.
Nordnet was appointed as a distributor for the initial public
offering of SpaceX in the quarter. This is the single largest
IPO ever and also the first time European retail investors
have been given the opportunity to subscribe for shares in an
American initial public offering. The offering was directed to
our customers in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark.
The quarter also marked an important event for Nordnet
Fonder, as its assets under management surpassed SEK
100 billion. We also broadened our offering with Nordnet
Germany, the first German index fund on the Nordic market.
In Sweded, we launched several targeted services that create
added value for specific customer categories. Through a
new partnership with the platform Eqvor, our Private Banking
and Active Trading customers can now trade unlisted shares
digitally and transparently. For Private Banking customers, we
have also initiated a partnership with Fenix, which gives them
free access to the drafting of digital legal agreements. Finally,
we have launched Fondkompassen, a new service that
helps savers navigate the fund offering based on their own
preferences within sustainability and ESG. By answering a
few questions, the customer gets a visual overview of which
funds best match their values, combined with the funds'
historical returns. The service will be launched in Finland
next.

13Nordnet interim report January-June 2026
Consolidated net profit1
Operating income amounted to SEK 1,634 (1,293) million,
which is 26 percent higher than the second quarter of 2025.
Net commission income grew by 37 percent compared to
the second quarter of 2025 and amounted to SEK 930 (681)
million.
Transaction-related net income amounted to SEK 738 (537)
million in the quarter, which is an increase of 37 percent
compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase is a
result of a 17 percent increase in the number of trades, as
well as a 17 percent increase in net income per trade. The
increase in income per trade is, in turn, explained by a record-
high share of cross-border trading, which during the quarter
accounted for 43 percent of the total number of trades,
compared to 33 percent during the second quarter of 2025.
Compared to the previous quarter, transaction-related net
income increased by 1 percent. The 6 percent decrease in
the number of trades was compensated for by an 8 percent
increase in income per trade, due to increased cross-border
trading.
Fund-related net income amounted to SEK 198 (148) million,
which is an increase of 34 percent compared to the second
quarter of 2025. The change is a result of higher fund capital,
which increased by 38 percent from the second quarter of
2025. The increase in fund capital is driven by both higher
valuations and net buying. The revenue margin, which
amounted to 23.6 (23.8) basis points, decreased slightly
because a higher proportion of new fund savings is placed
in funds with lower fees. Compared to the previous quarter,
fund-related net income increased by 6 percent, as a 17
percent increase in fund capital compensated for the lower
revenue margin resulting from decreased currency exchange
revenues from cross-border fund trading.
Net interest income for the quarter amounted to SEK 675
(601) million, which is an increase of 12 percent compared
to the second quarter of 2025. The increase is a result of
both higher deposits and higher lending, which counteracted
lower interest rate levels. The growth is largely driven by the
Norway, where deposits remain at a higher level than the
previous year. Deposit levels remain higher in Norway despite
Norwegian customers net buying during this quarter due to
the strong liquidity build-up when customers took profits
within the energy sector in the previous quarter.
Net income from the loan portfolio amounted to SEK 271
(269) million, which is 1 percent higher than in the second
quarter of 2025. This is the first time since Q3 2024 that
income from the loan portfolio has risen on an annual basis,
as higher volumes now fully compensate for the lower
interest rate levels. Compared to the previous quarter, income
from the loan portfolio rose by 1 percent as a result of a 5
percent increase in lending volumes.
Net income from the liquidity portfolio amounted to SEK 500
(434) million, which is an increase of 15 percent compared to
the second quarter of 2025 as a result of higher volumes that
compensate for a slightly lower interest rate level. Compared
to the previous quarter, net income from the liquidity portfolio
increased by 27 percent as a result of both higher interest
rates and a higher average volume. The higher average
volume is an effect of deposits increasing towards the end of
the first quarter and only decreasing towards the end of the
second quarter.
Interest expense on deposits amounted to SEK -102 (-106)
million, which is a decrease of 3 percent compared to the
second quarter of 2025. The decrease is a result of a lower
average interest rate on deposits due to a lower interest rate
environment as well as lower deposit volume on interest-
bearing accounts. Compared to the previous quarter, interest
expense on deposits increased by 18 percent as a result
of slightly higher volumes on interest-bearing accounts in
Sweden and higher deposit rates in Norway.
Other income amounted to SEK 27 (16) million. The
increase compared to the previous year is due to income
from distribution in connection with initial public offerings.
Compared to the previous quarter, when other income
amounted to SEK 5 million, the increase is driven by income
from initial public offerings as well as a seasonal increase
from fees associated with disribution of dividends in Finland.
Operating expenses increased by 11 percent compared to
the second quarter of 2025 and amounted to SEK 440 (397)
million. Approximately SEK 24 (10) million consists of costs
related to the upcoming launch in Germany. Excluding costs
for Germany, expenses increased by 7.5 percent compared
to the same period last year, primarily driven by higher
marketing costs as well as higher depreciation and system
costs.
Operating profit increased by 33 percent in the second
quarter of 2026 and amounted to SEK 1,190 (893) million,
with an operating margin of 73 (69) percent.

Financial position
30 June 2026
(31 December 2025)
Nordnet’s total assets amounted to SEK 349 (309) billion,
an increase of 13 percent compared to the turn of the year.
Out of the total assets, SEK 251 (220) billion are assets in
Nordnet’s pensions company (Nordnet Pensionsförsäkring
AB) for which the customers bear the risk. The value of
these assets increased by SEK 31 billion during the year.
These assets have a corresponding item on the liability side,
meaning that a change in the value of the assets results in a
corresponding change in the liabilities and therefore has no
effect on profit or equity.
Deposits from the public are Nordnet’s main source of
funding. Only a limited share of deposits is loaned out
and the remaining liquidity is invested in interest-bearing
securities (“the liquidity portfolio”) of high credit quality and
high liquidity, in order to maintain a strong liquidity buffer. The
currency distribution among lending and investments in the
liquidity portfolio corresponds to the currency distribution
among deposits and equity.
Lending¹ volumes amounted to SEK 31.4 (29.2) billion, which
is SEK 2.2 billion higher than 31 December 2025. Credit
quality in the lending portfolio is deemed good. For more
information, see Note 5.
The liquidity portfolio amounts to SEK 70 (60) billion,
corresponding to 73 percent of deposits, thereby providing
a good liquidity buffer. The liquidity portfolio has increased
by 16 percent since 31 December 2025 due to increased
deposits. The charts to the right show the maturity structure
for the Group's investments in bonds and certificates, broken
down by security category and maturity structure by interest
rate binding category.
Nordnet primarily invests its liquidity portfolio with the
intention of retaining holdings to maturity and reports them
either as Hold to Collect (HTC) or Hold to Collect and Sell
(HTC&S). Unrealized gains reflected neither in profit nor
in equity via other total comprehensive income (the HTC
portfolio) amounted to SEK -10.7 (-3.7) million. For securities
classified as HTC&S, unrealized gains or losses are reflected
in other total comprehensive income and in equity. This value
amounted to SEK 106 (50) million. See chart to the right for
the distribution between HTC and HTC&S, fixed and variable
interest and by maturity structure for each category.

Nordnet has a strong and stable capital structure. Equity
amounted to SEK 8.1 (8.4) billion, which, together with low
risk in both lending and investments in the liquidity portfolio,
creates the conditions for maintaining a dividend level of 70
percent of profit and also for repurchasing shares.
As the capital situation is strong and capital exceeds the
regulatory requirements by a solid margin, Nordnet has
chosen not to have this interim report reviewed by an auditor.
This means that Nordnet cannot include the profit for the
quarter, which has an impact on the capital situation and the
reported capital metrics. We intend to have the interim report
for the third quarter reviewed by an auditor, which means that
Nordnet will then be able to include the profit for both the
second and third quarters in the capital base.
The regulatory capital requirements for the bank operations
comprise two parts: the risk-weighted capital requirement
(capital adequacy) and the non-risk-weighted capital
requirement (leverage ratio). The risk-weighted capital
ratio of the consolidated situation amounted to 20.9 (23.7)
percent compared with a risk-weighted capital requirement
of 15.9 (14.9) percent, and the leverage ratio amounted to 4.7
(5.1) percent compared with a requirement, including Pillar 2
guidance, of 3.5 percent.
The risk-weighted capital requirement can be divided
into three parts: Pillar 1, Pillar 2, and the combined buffer
requirement. The Pillar 1 requirement mainly consists of
credit risk and operational risk. The Pillar 2 requirement is
primarily attributable to credit spread risk and interest rate
risk in the banking book, which are largely a function of
the credit quality as well as the interest rate and maturity
structure of the investments in the liquidity portfolio.
The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority
(Finansinspektionen) has assigned Nordnet's consolidated
situation a capital requirement of 1.94 percent for Pillar
2 risks. Nordnet also continuously conducts an internal
assessment of its capital requirements, and the chart below
illustrates both the regulatory requirements and the internally
calculated needs under Pillar 2. If the internally assessed
capital requirement exceeds the requirements of the Swedish
Financial Supervisory Authority, the higher amount is applied,
which is currently the case. For Nordnet, the combined buffer
requirement comprises a capital conservation buffer and a
counter-cyclical capital buffer.
Since the turn of the year, the leverage ratio has decreased
from 5.1 percent to 4.7 percent, primarily as a consequence
of increased deposits. At the end of the quarter, Nordnet has
Tier 1 capital that exceeds the leverage ratio requirement,
including Pillar 2 guidance, by SEK 1.3 (1.5) billion. At the
same time, the capital base exceeds the total risk-weighted
capital requirement (internally assessed) by SEK 1.2 (1.8)
billion.

Financial position
Nordnet aims to maintain a strong and effective capital
situation, which, with a maintained dividend level of 70
percent of net profit, provides scope for growth and the
capacity to manage unexpected situations. The leverage
ratio is the principal limiting factor, where the primary
uncertainty is potentially large inflows of deposits over a
short period of time, which would affect the leverage ratio
negatively.
The risk-weighted capital ratio is easier to control for Nordnet
as lending is limited both by volume and maturity, and the
capital requirement for the assets in the liquidity portfolio
can be managed on short notice by reallocating parts of the
portfolio.
Nordnet’s principal capital objective is to maintain a leverage
ratio of between 4.0 and 4.5 percent over time, while the
risk-weighted capital adequacy shall exceed the regulatory
requirement by at least one percentage point. The intention
is also to maintain an efficient capital structure and capital
situation in which the capital base does not exceed the
capital requirement more than is necessary to conduct the
business.
At the end of the quarter, Nordnet had the capacity to take in
SEK 36.3 billion in additional deposits without the leverage
ratio falling below 3.5 percent, SEK 18.2 billion without
it falling below 4.0 percent and SEK 4.2 billion without
falling below 4.5 percent. T o adjust the capital structure
and eventually achieve the set capital targets, Nordnet
continuously evaluates additional share buyback programs
as well as the management of AT1 bonds.
Cash flow
January – June 2026
(January-June 2025)
During the period, cash flow from operating activities was
impacted positively by the liquidity in customer deposits
increasing by SEK 6,476 (10,878) million and negatively
by increased lending of SEK -1,802 (503) million. The
investment operations have a negative cash flow during
the year due to increased investments in bonds and other
interest-bearing securities of SEK -8,204 (-11,172) million.
Cash flow from financing activities has been negatively
impacted during the period by the repurchase of own shares
amounting to SEK -100 million.
Parent company
January – June 2026
(January-June 2025)
Nordnet AB (publ) is a holding company and conducts no
operations beyond its role as the owner of Nordnet Bank AB
and Nordnet Incentive AB. Operating income for January–
March 2026 amounted to SEK 11 (12) million and relates to
intra-Group administrative services. The Parent Company’s
profit after financial items for the period January–June
2026 amounted to SEK 1,226 (1,053) million. The Parent
Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK
15 (40 as of 31 December 2025) million, and shareholders’
equity to SEK 3,543 (4,551 as of 31 December 2025) million.
Significant risks and uncertainties
Risk taking is an essential part of Nordnet’s business.
Nordnet’s profitability is directly dependent on its capacity
to identify, analyze, control and price risk. Risk management
in Nordnet serves several purposes. Partly to achieve
desired profitability and growth, given a deliberately
accepted level of risk, and to maintain a high level of trust
from customers and the external community. A trust that is
essential for Nordnet’s long-term profitability and existence.
Risk management is conducted in accordance with the risk
management framework. The framework describes risk
management-related strategies, processes, procedures,
internal regulations, limits, controls and reporting procedures.
Combined, these are intended to ensure that Nordnet can, on
an ongoing basis, identify, measure, manage, internally report
and maintain control over the risks to which Nordnet is, or
is likely to be, exposed. A detailed description of Nordnet’s
exposure to risk and handling of risks is presented in the
Board of Directors' Report and in Note 7 in the 2025 Annual
Report.

The war in the Middle East continues to leave clear marks
on the financial markets. Volatile energy prices are creating
concern among central banks regarding how inflation will be
affected if the situation does not reach a long-term solution.
At the same time, the tone from the US toward Europe is
sharp, further fueling geopolitical tensions. This has led to a
clear shift in expectations among economists, where hope
for a consumption-driven economic recovery has been
replaced by increasingly uncertain future prospects.
This uncertainty, combined with rising inflation expectations,
risks leading to increased volatility and declining valuations
on the stock market as households defer consumption
and maintain a high savings ratio. In the short term, higher
volatility may indeed drive up trading activity and thus
commission income. However, if the escalation continues,
or if the conflict becomes protracted, the risk of a broader
market decline and potential recession increases. Such
a scenario would negatively affect Nordnet's revenue
through reduced trading volumes and lower assets under
management in the fund business, although a higher interest
rate environment could simultaneously strengthen net
interest income and thereby partially compensate for lower
commission income.
In general, the cyber threat to the digital financial sector is
extensive and Nordnet’s operations are thus exposed to
cyber attacks and fraud. An incident related to such attacks
or fraud may materially disrupt Nordnet’s operations, damage
Nordnet’s reputation, expose Nordnet to the risk of loss,
sanctions or legal proceedings and a potential exposure to
losses affecting customers.
Changes in legislation constitute an ongoing risk to
Nordnet’s business model. In connection with the upcoming
parliamentary election in Sweden, discussions and proposals
have been raised from the political sphere regarding changes
to the framework for private savings, including adjustments
to tax levels and caps for popular forms of savings such as
ISK. Altered political priorities after the election could lead to
regulatory adjustments that impair the incentives for private
savings. This, in turn, risks negatively affecting customers'
savings behavior and thereby Nordnet’s business.

T otal lending amounted to SEK 31.4 billion (29.3 as
of 31 December 2025). Including loans to the public
fully covered by pledged cash and cash equivalents on
endowment insurance plans and investment savings
accounts (ISKs) of SEK 825 million (547 as of 31
December 2025), total lending amounted to SEK 32.3
billion (29.8 as of 31 December 2025).
Lending to the general public is reported after deduction
of realized and expected credit losses. At the end of the
period, the total provision for expected credit losses
amounted to SEK 15 million (19 as of 31 December 2025).
The credit loss provisions for margin lending amounted to
SEK 11 million (16 as of 31 December 2025). During Q2,
a one-off write-off of receivables was carried out on a
number of older accounts with long-term negative equity,
which reduced credit loss provisions by just over SEK 4
million. The majority of the affected accounts had no active
or prior credit relationship. The credit portfolio's underlying
quality and other reserve levels remain unchanged.
The volume-weighted average loan-to-value ratio in
customers' accounts with credit limits amounted to 35 (36
percent as of 31 December 2025) percent. Customers with
securities-backed loans are monitored daily and forcibly
adjusted when necessary to manage credit risk, which is
assessed to remain low.
The credit risk in Nordnet's mortgage portfolio is assessed
as low in relation to the mortgage market. Nordnet offers
mortgages in the Swedish and Norwegian markets with
a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 50 and 60 percent,
respectively. Nordnet has previously offered mortgages to
employees in Sweden with a maximum loan-to-value ratio
of 75%, a portion of these loans remains in the portfolio.
The credit loss provisions for mortgages amounted to SEK
3 million (3 as of 31 December 2025). In the fourth quarter
of 2021, an expert adjustment of SEK 3 million was
applied to cover expected credit losses that could occur
if, for example, a mortgaged home is destroyed without
there being insurance to cover the damage. This provision
remains as of Q2 2026.
The average loan-to-value ratio regarding mortgages
amounted to 45 percent (44 percent as of 31 December
2025). In addition to the mortgage on the customer’s
home, Nordnet also holds collateral in the form of
mortgage customers’ savings capital with Nordnet. Also
taking such collateral into account, the volume-weighted
average loan-to-value ratio in this lending portfolio is 29
percent (29 percent as of 31 December 2025). The first
quarter of the year demonstrated strong resilience in the
Swedish and Norwegian housing markets. Optimism is
returning as interest rate concerns subside and household
financial conditions stabilize. Price trends in both markets
are showing a positive trajectory.
Nordnet recognizes reserves for credit losses on financial
assets that are valued at amortized cost. For all credit
products, Nordnet has developed statistical models that
consist of a combination of historical, current, future-
oriented and macroeconomic data and benchmarks
deemed relevant by Nordnet, as well as external data from
multiple sources to be able to measure the credit risk and
assess the potential risk of default.
Measurement of credit exposure and calculation of
expected credit losses are complex and include the use of
models that are based on the probability of default,
exposure at default and loss given default. The calculation
of expected credit losses includes forward-looking
information with macro variables based on different

scenarios. The forecast for the three scenarios – base,
positive, and negative – is based on different assumptions
about future unemployment and economic recovery.
The second quarter continued to be impacted by the
conflict in the Middle East and its volatile effects on
commodity and energy prices. This persistent geopolitical
uncertainty has contributed to renewed inflationary
pressures, prompting central banks to adopt a more
cautious, wait-and-see approach.
Nordnet’s assessment is that the mortgage portfolio has
sufficient collateral for an adjustment of the weighting not
to be necessary, and Nordnet maintains an equivalent
assessment with regard to margin lending, as the risk there
is primarily affected by developments in the stock market.

Notes
Determination of fair value of financial
instruments
When the Group determines fair values for financial
instruments, different methods are used depending on the
degree of observability of market data in the valuation and
the market activity. An active market is considered either a
regulated or reliable trading venue where quoted prices are
easily accessible with regularity. An ongoing assessment of
the activity is done by analyzing factors such as differences
in buying and selling prices.
The methods are divided into three different levels:
Level 1 – Financial assets and financial liabilities valued on
the basis of unadjusted listed prices from an active market
for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Financial assets and financial liabilities valued
on the basis of input data other than that included in Level
1, either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices)
observable. Instruments in this category are measured
applying:
a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, or identical
assets or liabilities from markets not deemed to be active;
or
b) Valuation models based primarily on observable market
data.
Level 3 – Financial assets and financial liabilities valued on
the basis of observable market data.
The level of the fair value hierarchy to which a financial
instrument is classified is determined based on the lowest
level of input data that is significant for the fair value in its
entirety.
In cases where there is no active market, fair value is
determined using established valuation methods and
models. In these cases, assumptions that cannot be
directly derived from a market can be applied. These
assumptions are then based on experience and knowledge
about valuation in the financial markets. However, the
goal is always to maximize the use of data from an active
market. In cases when deemed necessary, relevant
adjustments are made to reflect a fair value, in order to
correctly reflect the parameters contained in the financial
instruments and to be reflected in its valuation.
For financial instruments recognized at fair value through
the income statement, mainly comprising assets where the
customer bears the investment risk, fair value is determined
based on quoted prices on the balance sheet date for the
assets. Liabilities where the customer bears the investment
risk receive an indirect asset valuation, which classifies
them as Level 2 instruments.
Forward rate agreements are valued at fair value by
discounting the difference between the contracted forward
rate and the forward rate available on the balance sheet
date for the remaining contract period. The discount rate is
the risk-free rate based on government bonds.
The fair value of interest-bearing securities has been
calculated by discounting anticipated future cash flows,
with the discount rate being set based on the current
market interest rate.
Fund units not considered to be traded in an active market
at listed prices are measured at fair value based on NAV
(net asset value).
For lending and deposits at variable interest rates,
including lending with financial instruments or housing
as collateral, which are reported at amortized cost, the
carrying amount is considered to be fair value. For assets
and liabilities in the balance sheet with a remaining
maturity of less than six months, the carrying amount is
considered to reflect the fair value.

Cont. Note 7 Group – Financial instruments Notes
Description of valuation levels
Level 1 mainly contains shares, funds, bonds, treasury bills
and standardized derivatives where the quoted price has
been used in the valuation.
Level 2 primarily involves bonds that are valued
based on an interest rate curve and liabilities in the
insurance operations, the value of which is indirectly linked
to a specific asset value valued based on observable
input data. For less liquid bond holdings, credit spread
adjustments are based on observable market data such
as the credit derivatives market. This category includes
funds, derivatives and certain interest-bearing securities.
Level 3 contains other financial instruments for which
own internal assumptions have a significant effect on the
calculation of fair value. Level 3 contains mainly unlisted
equity instruments for which the pension company’s
customers bear the investment risk. When valuation
models are used to determine fair value of financial
instruments in Level 3, the consideration paid or received
is considered to be the best assessment of fair value on
initial recognition.
When the Group determines the level at which financial
instruments are to be reported, each one is individually
assessed in its entirety.
Financial instruments are transferred to or from Level 3
depending on whether internal assumptions have
changed for the valuation. Input data in Level 3 primarily
comprise external assessments applying the valuation
method for relevant inputs.
Disclosures regarding Level 3.
Over the year, financial assets were transferred from
Level 2 to Level 3, with the main reason for the transfer
being due to instruments lacking observable market data
and therefore valued in accordance with independent
theoretical valuations. Financial assets were also
transferred from level 3 to level 2, with the main reason
for the transfer being because instruments that previously
lacked reliable data or were valued in accordance with
independent theoretical valuations have now been
calculated using valuation methods based on observable
market data.
Of the closing amount in Level 3 as of 30st June 2026,
100 percent comprises Swedish holdings, which is why
the currency effect, shown under Changes in value,
represents an immaterial part of the amount for foreign
holdings.
Nordnet’s valuation techniques for level 3 are models of
discounted cash flows, analyses, option price models
and current transactions for similar instruments. Nordnet
may employ theoretical valuations by independent
counterparties in accordance with valuation techniques if
these prices are provided to Nordnet. If the valuation data
for the most recent three months following the end of a
quarter are insufficient, the valuation is set to zero.

Financial conglomerate
Own funds and capital requirements
The financial conglomerate comprises Nordnet AB (publ)
and all of its subsidiaries. The own funds and capital
requirement are calculated in accordance with the
consolidation method.
The capital requirement for units in the insurance business
is affected by the policyholders’ assets. The capital
requirements for the banking operations (presented under
a separate heading for the consolidated situation) vary
primarily in terms of the size and credit quality of the bank’s
exposures.
For the financial conglomerate, solvency capital
requirements and own funds are calculated according
to the standard model under Solvency 2, which affirms
the total capital requirement from both the banking and
insurance operations. As a consequence of the solvency
rules, the item Solvency capital in the conglomerate’s own
funds, which refer to the estimated future present value of
the insurance companies (Nordnet Pensionsförsäkring AB)
including the subsidiary Nordnet Livsforsikring AS).

Consolidated situation
Own funds and capital requirements
The consolidated situation consists of Nordnet AB (publ)
and Nordnet Bank AB. Consequently, the difference
between the financial conglomerate and the consolidated
situation is that the financial conglomerate also
consolidates the insurance operations, as well as Nordnet
Fonder AB.
Nordnet applies the standard method for calculating the
own funds requirement for credit risk. The own funds
requirement for exchange rate risk comprises all items in
and outside the balance sheet measured at current market
value and converted to Swedish kronor at the balance
sheet date. The own funds requirement for operational
risk is calculated in accordance with the new standardized
method (SMA).
As a result of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority’s
Review- and Evaluation Process (SREP) of Nordnet in
2025, the supervisory authority determined that Nordnet
shall meet Pillar 2 requirements of 1.94 percent of the
total risk-weighted exposure amount for the consolidated
situation, corresponding to SEK 470 million as of 30 June
2026. Nordnet also continously conducts an internal
assessment of its capital requirements. If the internally
assessed capital requirement exceeds the requirements
of the Financial Supervisory Authority, the higher amount
shall apply.
Three quarters of the own funds requirement shall be met
with Tier 1 capital, at least three quarters of which shall
consist of Core Tier 1 capital.
The own funds shall cover minimum capital requirements
and the combined buffer requirement, as well as
supplemental Pillar 2 requirements. Until and including the
first quarter of 2026, net profit is included in own funds less
expected dividends, as the external auditors have verified
the net profit and permission has been obtained from the
Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority.
Nordnet also deducts intangible software assets in
accordance with the amendment to Delegated Regulation
(EU) No 241/2014. This means that all intangible software
assets, the value of which is not significantly affected
by an institution’s resolution, insolvency or liquidation,
are deducted from own funds on the basis of a prudent
valuation (maximum three-year depreciation period). The
remaining part of the software’s carrying amount shall have
a risk weight of 100 percent.
The change entails own funds, as well as the total
risk-weighted exposure amount, increasing by SEK 379
million as of 30 June 2026 compared with the situation if
the reduced deduction had not been applied.
The banking package was adopted in June 2019, and the
changes were published in June 2024 in the EU's Official
Journal. The main impact on Nordnet is changes to the
standardized approach for credit risk and the new method
for operational risk, which are important components
in determining the bank's capital adequacy. The bank
has implemented the changes and meets the new
requirements. The regulations came into force in January
2025, with several transitional rules coming into effect at a
later stage.

Cont. Note 9 Capital adequacy information and liquidity
Internally assessed capital requirement
In accordance with the EU directive on capital adequacy
2013/36/EU Article 73 and the Swedish Financial
Supervisory Authority regulations and general advice
(FFFS 2014:12) regarding supervisory requirements
and capital buffers, Nordnet evaluates the total capital
requirements that were the result of the bank’s annual
internal capital adequacy assessment (ICAAP) with the aim
of identifying significant risks to which the bank is exposed
and to ensure that the bank has adequate capital.
The ICAAP is based on Nordnet’s business plan,
current and future regulatory requirements and scenario-
based simulations and stress tests. The results are
reported to the Board annually and form the basis of the
Board’s capital planning.
Nordnet has calculated the internal capital requirement
for the consolidated situation to be SEK 2,745 million
(2,118 as of 31 December 2025). This is considered to be
a satisfactory capital situation with regard to the activities
that Nordnet conducts. Nordnet calculates its internally
assessed capital requirement as the sum of 8 percent of
the total risk-weighted exposure amounts (SEK (1,936.
million) and the internally assessed Pillar 2 requirement
(SEK 808 million). The regulatory buffer requirements
are not applied in the calculation of the internal capital
requirement.
In addition to what is stated in this interim report,
Nordnet’s risk management and capital adequacy are
described in greater detail in Nordnet’s 2025 Annual
Report for and on the Nordnet website; see www.

Liquidity
The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) is calculated as the ratio
between the bank’s liquidity buffer and net cash flows in
a highly stressed scenario over a 30-day period. The ratio
shall be at least 100 percent. In its Supervisory Review
and Evaluation Process (SREP), the Swedish Financial
Supervisory Authority determined that the consolidated
situation shall meet specific liquidity requirements: an
LCR of 100 percent in EUR, an LCR of 75 percent in other
currencies, and a liquidity buffer, applied in calculating the
LCR for the Consolidated situation, that may comprise at
most 50 percent covered bonds issued by Swedish issuing
institutes.
The net stable funding ratio, NSFR, is calculated as the
ratio of stable funding available to the stable funding
needed. The minimum requirement applies at an aggregate
level and the quota must amount to at least 100 percent.
Nordnet’s LCR and NSFR ratios show that the bank has a
high level of resilience to disruptions in the finance market.
In accordance with FFFS 2010:7, Chapter 5, Nordnet
discloses details of its liquidity risk positions as of the
balance sheet date, 30 June 2026. The information refers
to the consolidated situation, which includes Nordnet AB
(publ), org. no. 559073-6681 and Nordnet Bank AB, org.
no. 516406-0021
The liquidity reserve is financed by deposits from the
public, shareholders’ equity and issued bonds (known as
“AT1 bond loans”) of SEK 900 million. Most of the reserve
is invested in bonds with a high rating, such as covered
bonds, sovereign bonds and balances at central or other
banks. The liquidity reserve is deemed sufficiently large to
be able to respond to situations of temporary or prolonged
stress.
Nordnet Bank AB is a member of the Swedish,
Norwegian, Finnish and Danish central banks,
further strengthening its liquidity preparedness.
