Disclaimer

    This presentation contains forward-looking statements that reflect management’s current views with
    respect to certain future events and potential financial performance. Although Nordea believes that the
    expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given
    that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results could differ materially from
    those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.
    Important factors that may cause such a difference for Nordea include, but are not limited to: (i) the
    macroeconomic development, (ii) change in the competitive climate, (iii) change in the regulatory
    environment and other government actions and (iv) change in interest rate and foreign exchange rate
    levels.
    This presentation does not imply that Nordea has undertaken to revise these forward-looking statements,
    beyond what is required by applicable law or applicable stock exchange regulations if and when
    circumstances arise that will lead to changes compared to the date when these statements were
    provided.

House price development in the Nordics

House prices                             Comments

                                         •   Recent quarters have shown stabilisation in the Swedish and Norwegian
                                             housing markets, while prices continue to rise in Denmark and to some
                                             extent also in Finland

                                         •   In Sweden house prices declined during H2 2017 but the trend has
                                             levelled out in 2018. The price correction was probably due to the
                                             marked rise in new buildings as well as the FSA’s additional
                                             amortization requirement (March 2018). Going forward we expect house
                                             prices to remain stable as mortgage rates will remain low even though
                                             we see risks on the downside

                                         •   In Norway, primarily in Oslo, house prices turned down during 2017. The
                                             downturn was primarily driven by stricter lending requirements
Household’s credit growth                    introduced 1 January 2017. However, prices have levelled out, and even
                                             increased somewhat in Oslo. Largely unchanged prices are forecast
                                             ahead
