Nordea Bank Abp
Financial Statement Release
29 January 2026 at 7.45 EET
Summary of the quarter
Return on equity 14.4% - earnings per share EUR 0.34. Nordea's return on equity
for the quarter was 14.4%, compared with 14.3% a year ago, reflecting resilient
and strong performance despite muted consumer sentiment due to ongoing
geopolitical tensions. The cost-to-income ratio excluding regulatory fees was
46.2% for the quarter, improving from 47.9% a year ago. Earnings per share were
EUR 0.34, up from EUR 0.32 a year ago.
Total income resilient. As expected, net interest income was down (-5%)
following policy rate reductions. Net fee and commission income was up 3%,
continuing the solid growth seen in the previous quarter. Net fair value result
was up 28% due to higher customer activity and stronger market making result.
Costs were down 3% with stable strategic investment levels and active cost
management. Operating profit was up 3% at EUR 1.5bn.
Business volume growth. Mortgage lending grew by 1% year on year, driven by
growth in Sweden and Norway. Corporate lending growth was strong, up 8%. Retail
and corporate deposit volumes increased by 6% and 1%, respectively. Assets under
management increased by 13%, to EUR 478bn, and Nordic net flows continued to be
strong in the quarter (EUR 4.8bn).
Strong credit quality, with net loan losses below Nordea's long term
expectation. Net loan losses and similar net result amounted to EUR 49m (5bp),
including a EUR 17m reduction in the management judgement buffer, which now
stands at EUR 276m. Excluding the reduction, net loan losses and similar net
result amounted to EUR 66m (7bp).
Continued strong capital generation and share buy-backs. The CET1 ratio was
15.7% at the end of the quarter, 1.9 percentage points above the current
regulatory requirement. Nordea's strong capital position and continued robust
capital generation enabled the Group to support lending growth and continue
share buy-backs. During the fourth quarter Nordea launched and completed one
share buy-back programme and launched another, in total EUR 750m, with related
capital deductions amounting to approximately 45bp. Nordea's Board of Directors
has proposed a dividend of EUR 0.96 per share for 2025, compared with EUR 0.94
per share for 2024. Additionally, the Board has proposed the distribution of a
mid-year dividend in 2026, corresponding to approximately 50% of the net profit
for the first half of 2026.
Outlook for 2026: a return on equity of greater than 15% and a cost-to-income
ratio excluding regulatory fees of around 45%. Nordea has a strong and resilient
business model, with a very well-diversified portfolio across the Nordic region.
This enables the Group to support its customers and deliver high-quality
earnings, with high profitability and low volatility, through the economic
cycle. It also enables Nordea to continue to generate capital, seek
opportunities to deploy it to drive growth, and distribute excess capital to
shareholders in the form of share buy-backs.

CEO comment
Once again, Nordea delivered strong results. We finished 2025 well, with solid
fourth-quarter profitability supported by growth in business volumes and lower
costs. Return on equity for the full year 2025 was 15.5%, in line with the
commitment we made three years ago and making this the third year in a row that
we have exceeded 15%.
Our performance reflects the momentum we have built since we set out to reshape
the business in the autumn of 2019. We have significantly improved customer
experience, strengthened our performance and delivered consistently high-quality
results, in both good and more challenging times. We closed our strategy period
on a high note for customer satisfaction: scores are now 4-10 index points
higher than in 2019 in all business areas, and our performance relative to peers
has improved. The past six years have also seen us create significant
shareholder value: total shareholder return amounts to 322% or 26% per annum.
By many measures, Nordea is stronger than it has ever been. This leaves us well
positioned to support our customers in this period of broader global uncertainty
and ongoing geopolitical tensions. During the fourth quarter consumer confidence
across our four Nordic home markets remained understandably muted. Nevertheless,
we drove an increase in customer activity among both households and corporates.
Mortgage lending increased by 1% year on year. As in previous quarters,
households continued to strengthen their financial positions, with a clear focus
on savings and investments. Retail deposits were up 6%.
The strongest pickup in activity was again among corporates. Despite risks to
global economic growth, we are clearly seeing the beneficial effects of a more
stable inflation and interest rate environment in the Nordic countries, which
has improved visibility and enabled businesses to plan with greater confidence.
Consequently, we grew corporate lending by 8% year on year, further picking up
from the third quarter. Corporate deposits were up 1%.
Total income for the quarter was EUR 2.9bn, in line with the fourth quarter of
2024. Our net interest income continues to hold up well, supported by higher
business volumes and our deposit hedge.Operating expenses decreased by 3%, in
line with our plan, reflecting continued active cost management and stable
investment levels. Our cost-to-income ratio improved to 46.2% from 47.9% a year
ago. Return on equity was 14.4%, while operating profit increased by 3% year on
year, to EUR 1.5bn.
Credit quality is strong. Net loan losses and similar net result for the quarter
amounted to EUR 49m or 5bp - well below our long term expectation of 10bp. We
reduced our management judgement buffer by a further EUR 17m, bringing the total
to EUR 276m.
In Personal Banking we delivered continued growth in business volumes and net
flows into retail funds while advancing our digital capabilities for an enhanced
customer experience. Deposits increased by 5% year on year and lending was up
1%. Customers continued to focus on financial planning and actively sought our
advice, while housing markets showed further signs of improvement. Customer use
of our digital platforms increased again this quarter: app users and logins were
up 3% and 5%, respectively, year on year, and 69% of investments into funds were
made through digital channels.
In Business Banking we drove strong volume growth. Nordic SMEs continued to
adapt well to the operating environment, with stable interest rates supporting
higher demand for lending. Lending volumes increased by 6% year on year, led by
Sweden, with growth across all Nordic countries. Deposits were up 5%. To deliver
an even better experience, we are making onboarding easier through simplified
processes and a new digital tool, enabling our customers to get started faster.
In Large Corporates & Institutions we continued to support our customers,
drawing on our strong balance sheet and leading advisory capabilities. We
achieved record-high customer satisfaction and substantial growth in lending
volumes and ancillary income. Lending volumes were up 10% year on year, with
particularly strong growth - 20% - in Sweden. Debt Capital Markets activity
remained high: during the quarter we arranged close to 140 transactions for a
broad range of issuers. Our secondary equities business income grew by 26% year
on year. Nordea Markets delivered strong results, driven by solid trading
performance and increased client activity compared with a year ago.
In Asset & Wealth Management the good momentum continued in our Nordic channels,
with net inflows at EUR 4.8bn, mainly contributed by retail funds and Private
Banking. Net flows in international channels amounted to EUR 1.7bn, and net
flows in the wholesale distribution channel continued to stabilise, totalling
EUR 0.8bn for the quarter. One of our new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) - a
BetaPlus solution launched in June 2025 - is already the largest actively
managed sustainable ETFin Europe, demonstrating strong demand for sustainable
investing and confidence in our approach. Assets under management increased by
13% year on year, to a record high of EUR 478bn.
Our capital position is strong, supported by robust capital generation. At the
end of the year our CET1 ratio was 15.7%. This followed the launch and
completion of a EUR 250m share buy-back programme and the launch of a new EUR
500m programme during the fourth quarter. Given our strong 2025 performance, our
Board of Directors has proposed a dividend of EUR 0.96 per share for 2025,
compared with EUR 0.94 per share for 2024.
We have now concluded our 2022-25 strategy period, having delivered on our
priorities and financial targets - and are setting the stage for the next
chapter of growth with our new strategic plan, launched at our Capital Markets
Day in November. Our priorities are clear: drive above-market business growth,
further strengthen our customer offering, and unlock the full potential of our
unique Nordic scale.
We are targeting a return on equity of greater than 15% for each year through to
2030, and significantly higher in 2030. We are also targeting a cost-to-income
ratio of 40-42% in 2030. Accordingly, we expect to deliver a return on equity of
greater than 15% for the full year 2026, and expect our cost-to-income ratio
excluding regulatory fees to be around 45%.
You can be assured that we will execute our plan with the same rigor and focus
we have applied over the past two strategy periods.We do what we say.That
commitment is reflected in our new vision:we aim to be the best-performing
financial services group in the Nordics.
Frank Vang-Jensen
President and Group CEO
Outlook
Financial targets for 2030
Nordea targets a return on equity of greater than 15% throughout the period, and
significantly higher in 2030, and a cost-to-income ratio excluding regulatory
fees of 40-42% in 2030. These targets will be supported by an annual net loan
loss ratio of around 10bp and the continuation of Nordea's well-established
capital and dividend policies.
Financial outlook for 2026 (new)
Nordea expects a return on equity of greater than 15% and a cost-to-income ratio
excluding regulatory fees of around 45%.
Capital policy
A management buffer of 150bp above the regulatory CET1 requirement.
Dividend policy
Nordea's dividend policy stipulates a dividend payout ratio of 60-70%,
applicable to profit for the financial year. Nordea will continuously assess the
opportunity to use share buy-backs as a tool to distribute excess capital.
Dividend proposal
On 31 December 2025 Nordea Bank Abp's distributable earnings, including profit
for the financial year and after subtracting capitalised development expenses,
were EUR 21,482m. Other unrestricted equity, consisting of invested unrestricted
equity, amounted to EUR 1,077m.
Nordea's Board of Directors has decided to propose that the Annual General
Meeting (AGM) of 24 March 2026 decide on a dividend payment of EUR 0.96 per
share. This corresponds to approximately 68% of the net profit for the year. The
Board of Directors has also decided to propose that the AGM authorise it to
decide on the distribution of a mid-year dividend in 2026. The mid-year dividend
amount is intended to be set at a level corresponding to approximately 50% of
the Nordea Group's net profit for the six-month period ending 30 June 2026,
while being subject to a maximum total amount of EUR 3bn. The mid-year dividend
is considered to form the first part of the total dividend distribution to be
paid for the financial year 2026 under the company's dividend policy. The mid
-year dividend will be paid based on the annual accounts to be adopted for the
financial year ended 31 December 2025. The intention is for the Group Board to
decide on the mid-year dividend in conjunction with the interim report for the
second quarter. Dividends will not be paid for shares held by Nordea on the
dividend record dates.
