Nordea Bank Finland Group
Result summary January-June 2008
The first six months of 2008 were characterised by maintained high
income and profit levels despite negative effects from volatile and
weakened financial markets. NBF's total income increased by 18% to
EUR 1,394m (1,179) and total expenses by 7% to EUR 484m (452). (The
comparison figures in brackets refer to the first six months of
2007.)
NBF's operating profit was up by 19% compared to the same period in
2007 and amounted to EUR 884m (743). Return on equity was 12.9%
(9.4%) and the cost/income ratio 35% (38%). Loan losses amounted to
EUR 26m (16m positive loan losses). Net profit increased by 25% to
EUR 689m (552).
Market development in the first half of 2008
In Finland, economic growth slowed down in the first half of 2008,
but remained robust. Employment grew strongly and unemployment
continued to drop. However, the global rise of oil and food prices
caused inflation to accelerate to over 4% in the spring. High
inflation also turned the market rates up again. The price and rate
rise as well as worrying news about the global economy weakened
consumer confidence at the beginning of summer. Share prices fell as
well.
Income
Total income increased by 18% to EUR 1,394m. The income growth is
driven by volume growth as well as the high activity level in the
customer-driven capital markets operations. The strong growth in net
interest income continued, supported by positive trends both in
lending and deposits. Net interest income totalled EUR 855m (744).
Total lending to the public increased by 18% year-on-year to EUR
66.5bn. Deposits and borrowings from the public increased by 16%
year-on-year to EUR 43.1bn.
Net commission income decreased by 8% to EUR 146m, with savings
related commissions negatively affected by the weak equity markets,
lower transaction activity and a shift from funds to savings deposit
accounts. Lending-related commissions increased somewhat whereas
payment commissions were stable. Development in other commissions was
favourable as commissions from securities issues increased. Total
commission expenses increased by 15% mainly due to higher transaction
volumes.
Throughout this report, "Nordea Bank Finland" and "NBF" refer to the
parent company Nordea Bank Finland Plc, business identity code
1680235-8, with its subsidiaries. The registered office of the
company is in Helsinki. Nordea Bank Finland Plc is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Nordea Bank AB (publ), the listed parent company of the
whole Nordea Group. The business operations of the Nordea Group have
been organised in three customer areas, all of which operate across
national boundaries: Nordic Banking, Private Banking and
Institutional & International Banking. The consolidated interim
report of Nordea Bank AB (publ) embraces all the activities of the
Nordea Group and provides the most complete and fair view. This
statutory interim report covers the operations of the legal entity
Nordea Bank Finland Plc with its subsidiaries.
Net gains/losses at fair value increased by 52% to EUR 379m (249).
The customer-driven capital markets operations continued to perform
strongly, with the continued high transaction activity. All product
areas were able to perform better than in the previous year. The
negative impact on net gains/losses from specific valuation losses
due to the credit market turmoil has continued to be limited.
Profit from companies accounted for under the equity method increased
to EUR 1m (-1).
Other operating income decreased to EUR 13m (28) as no major capital
gains realised during the first half of 2008.
Expenses
Total operating expenses increased by 7% and amounted to EUR 484m
(452).
Staff costs increased by 9% to EUR 276m (254) following a higher
number of employees, investments in growth areas and wage inflation.
The number of full-time employees increased by approximately 320
year-on-year, largely in the Baltic area.
Other operating expenses totalled EUR 193m (184), up by 5% compared
to last year. The higher activity level and investments in growth
areas mainly explain the increase.
Depreciation of tangible and intangible assets increased slightly to
EUR 15m (14).
The cost/income ratio was 35% compared to 38% in the first half of
2007.
Loan losses
As expected recoveries and reversals were lower than last year,
whereas new provisions were nearly at unchanged and modest levels.
Net loan losses of EUR 26m (positive loan losses 16m) were recorded
in the first half year.
Taxes
The effective tax rate for the first half of 2008 was approximately
22%. In the first half of 2007, the effective tax rate was
approximately 26%.
Net profit
Net profit increased by 25% to EUR 689m (552) corresponding to a
return on equity of 12.9% compared to 9.4% in the first half of last
year.
Balance sheet
(Comparison figures in brackets refer to December 2007 figures)
The total assets of NBF amounted to EUR 177bn (147). The change
mainly reflects strong growth in lending, higher balance sheet values
of derivatives as well as increased intra-group transactions.
Despite the higher interest rate levels the growth rate of the
housing loan stock was still double digit in Finland. In the Baltic
area the growth rate has been very strong despite the more
challenging macroeconomic development. Loans to the public grew by
10% compared with the end of 2007. The book values of derivatives
have increased due to revaluations and volume growth.
Deposits and borrowings from the public increased from the year-end
level and amounted to EUR 43.1bn (41.7).
Capital position and capital management
At the end of June, NBF's risk-weighted amounts (RWA) were EUR 73.3bn
excluding transition rules, compared to EUR 66.1bn at year-end 2007.
The increase is explained by volume increases. RWA including
transition rules increased by EUR 5.7bn to EUR 76.7bn.
Excluding transition rules, the tier 1 ratio was 13.4% and the total
capital ratio was 14.9%. Including transition rules, the tier 1 ratio
was 12.8% and the total capital ratio was 14.2%. Profit for the
period has not been included in tier 1.
During 2008, Nordea has an ongoing approval process for its
internal-rating-based (IRB) models for its Retail credit portfolio.
Credit portfolio
Total lending was EUR 66.5bn (60.6) at the end of June 2008. The
share of lending to corporate customers was 54%. There was no major
change in the composition of the credit portfolio.
Credit quality in the well diversified lending portfolio remained
strong, with no industry sector showing any material change in credit
strength since the beginning of the year.
Impaired loans gross increased to EUR 755m at the end of June 2008
compared to EUR 616m at the end of December. EUR 51m of this increase
is attributable to the Baltic countries. Individually assessed
impaired loans, net, amounted to EUR 569m (430) representing 0.6% of
total loans and receivables before allowances, which was on the same
level as at year-end 2007.
Off-balance sheet commitments
The total amount of off-balance sheet commitments increased to EUR
34.7bn (30.0). The increase mainly related to guarantees, as the
centralisation of guarantee operations to NBF continued. The volumes
of derivatives have continued to grow and they amounted to EUR
3,450bn (3,017).
Changes in the group structure
Nordea Bank Finland Plc has increased its ownership in Realia Holding
Oy. NBF's share of the total capital invested is 36.8%.
Changes in the Board of Directors
President Markku Pohjola and the President's deputy Carl-Johan
Granvik resigned from their positions as of 31 May 2008. The Board
elected Carl-Johan Granvik President and Ari Kaperi his deputy as
from 1 June 2008. Carl-Johan Granvik was elected the Deputy Chairman
of the Board on 6 May 2008. Markku Pohjola resigned from his position
as member of the Board as of 31 May 2008 and Michael Rasmussen was
elected member of the Board as from 1 June 2008. Christian Clausen
continues as Chairman of the Board and Arne Liljedahl and Peter
Schütze as members of the Board. Markku Pohjola will retire on 31
July 2008.
Risks and uncertainties
Nordea's revenue base reflects the Group's business with a large and
diversified customer base, comprising both retail and corporate
customers, representing different geographic areas and industries.
Nordea has mainly an exposure to the general and industry specific
economic development in the geographical areas in which the Group
operates.
Nordea's main risk exposure is credit risk. The Group also assumes
market risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. There is no major
change to the risk composition of the Group compared to what is
disclosed in the 2007 Annual Report.
None of the above exposures and risks is expected to have any
significant adverse effect on the Group or its financial position in
the next six months.
Within the framework of normal business operations, the Group faces
claims in civil lawsuits and other disputes, most of which involve
relatively limited amounts. None of these disputes is considered
likely to have any significant adverse effect on the Group or its
financial position in the next six months.
New Group organisation from 1 June 2008
Nordea's Group organisation was revised from 1 June 2008, in line
with the next steps in the development of the Group's operating
model.
To further strengthen customer-orientation and local market focus and
teamwork, a new position as national Head of Banking responsible for
customer relations has been established in each of the four Nordic
markets reporting to the Head of Nordic Banking.
Product development and product management will be enhanced by the
establishment of a new product area, Capital Markets and Savings.
High quality and efficiency in product deliveries, technology and
support will be targeted in the new combined product and operations
area, Banking Products and Group Operations.
Outlook 2008
Signs of slowing international economic growth particularly in the US
and in large parts of Europe, are becoming increasingly apparent. The
Nordic economies have so far been relatively resilient in the face of
the international slowdown, but the uncertainty has gradually
increased.
Nordea Group's lending growth is expected to be lower in the
remaining part of the year, but still at a high level. Corporate
lending margins are expected to increase further.
Consensus for international equity markets continues to be fairly
negative and therefore, Nordea Group does not foresee any significant
improvement in commission income in the medium term.
In view of the uncertainty of Nordic macroeconomic growth prospects,
the development in equity markets and the volatile financial markets,
the uncertainty as to Nordea Group's outlook has increased
correspondingly. Nordea Group still expects customer operations to
deliver according to plans.
Nordea Group previously has communicated an expected growth in
risk-adjusted profit of 5-10%. Nordea Group now expects to deliver a
growth of approx. 5%, excluding the gain from the sale of NCSD.
However, the development in the financial markets will affect the
outcome and determine whether the growth will be somewhat above or
below 5%. Nordea Bank Finland is expected to contribute to the
growth.
Cost growth for Nordea Group for 2008 is expected to be somewhat
higher than the growth rate in 2007.
The overall quality of the credit portfolio of Nordea Group remains
strong, only the Baltic countries show increasing impaired loans
although from a very low level. For the second half of 2008, Nordea
Group expects somewhat higher net loan loss charges than in the first
half of the year.

Notes
Note 1 Accounting policies
NBF's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) endorsed
by the EU, the Finnish Accounting Act and to applicable parts
according to the Finnish Credit Institutions Act, the Financial
Supervision Authority's regulations and Guidelines and the Decree of
the Ministry of Finance on the financial statements and consolidated
financial statements of credit institutions.
These statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34"Interim Financial Reporting". The interim report is unaudited.
Changed accounting policies and presentation
The accounting policies, basis for calculations and presentation are,
in all material aspects, unchanged in comparison with the Annual
Report 2007, except for the presentation of received dividends and
income from private equity funds and other shares in the income
statement.
Dividends received from group undertakings and associated
undertakings are recognised on the separate income line "Dividends"
in the parent company. In the group, dividends from group
undertakings are eliminated and dividends from associated
undertakings are reclassified to "Investments in associated
undertakings". All other received dividends are recognised as "Net
gains/losses on items at fair value". Comparative figures have been
restated accordingly.
Investments in private equity funds have been reclassified to be
valued at fair value through profit and loss according to IAS 28
rules regarding venture capital investors. Profits and losses from
these investments have been reclassified from "Other operating
income" to "Net gains/losses on items at fair value". Comparative
figures have been restated accordingly.
The table below shows the impact on the income statement in the first
half of 2008 and on the comparative figures. The impact on the
balance sheet figures is insignificant.
