" Welcome to invest in SEB’s future"

We are active in a challenging environment, but SEB has the stability and long-term perspective that creates long-term value for the bank’s customers, and hence for shareholders.

The success depends on the commitment of you and your colleagues.

The share savings programme gives you an opportunity to take part in SEB’s long-term value creation.

I hope the programme will encourage you to have a share in the company in which you work."

Marcus Wallenberg

Chairman of the Board of Directors
