The ECB and EBA confirm Swedbank’s strong asset qualityand capitalisation

Swedbank has participated in the European Banking Authority (EBA) stress test
and Asset Quality Review (AQR). Swedbank’s subsidiaries in Estonia, Lithuania
and Latvia have been part of the European Central Bank’s (ECB) Comprehensive
Assessment, which encompasses stress test and AQR.
The results confirm Swedbank’s strong asset quality and capital position and
show that Swedbank and its Baltic subsidiaries have sufficient capital to
withstand a severe stress scenario.

The results from the stress tests and the asset quality reviews have been made
available at ECB’s and EBA’s websites today, 26 October. To access the result
