NSFR aims to establish a minimum acceptable amount of stable funding based on the liquidity characteristics of an institutions assets and activities over a
one-year horizon. The measure is governed by the EUs Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR); however no weights have yet been established.
Consequently, the measure cannot be calculated based on current rules and NSFR is considered an alternative performance measure. It is presented in
accordance with Swedbanks interpretation of the Basel Committees recommendation (BCBS295). In Swedbanks opinion, the presentation of this measure
is relevant for investors since it will be required in the near future and we already follow it as part of our internal governance.

Sweden is Swedbanks largest market, with around 4 million private customers and more than 250 000 corporate
customers. This makes it Swedens largest bank by number of customers. Through our digital channels (Internet Bank
and Mobile Bank), the Telephone Bank and branches, and with the cooperation of savings banks and franchisees, we are
always available. Swedbank is part of the community. Branch managers have a strong mandate to act in their local
communities. The banks presence and engagement are expressed in various ways. A project called Young Jobs, which
has created several thousand trainee positions for young people, has played an important part in recent years. Swedbank
has 248 branches in Sweden.

For Jan-Dec 2016 an expense of SEK 2 485m (-2 829) was recognised in other comprehensive income after tax,
including remeasurements of defined benefit pension plans in associates. The 2016 expense arose primarily because
market interest rates fell from the last year end. At year end the discount rate, which is used to calculate the closing
pension obligation, was 2.79 per cent, compared with 3.53 per cent at the last year end. The markets future inflation
expectations increased during the year. The inflation assumption was 1.84 per cent compared with 1.63 per cent last year
end. The fair value of plan assets decreased during 2016 by SEK 480m. As a whole, the obligation for defined benefit
pension plans exceeded the fair value of plan assets by SEK 1 406m.
For Jan-Dec 2016 an exchange difference of SEK 1 644m (-1 678) was recognised for the Group's foreign net
investments in subsidiaries. In addition, an exchange rate difference of SEK 124m (-136) for the Group's foreign net
investments in associates is included in Share related to associates. The gain related to subsidiaries and associates
mainly arose because the Swedish krona weakened during the year against the euro respective Norwegian krona. The
total gain of SEK 1 768m is not taxable. Since the large part of the Group's foreign net investments is hedged against
currency risk, a loss of SEK 1 337m before tax arose for the hedging instruments, compared with a year-earlier gain of
SEK 1 489m.
The revaluation of defined benefit pension plans and translation of net investments in foreign operations can be volatile in
certain periods due to movements in the discount rate, inflation and exchange rates.

Balance sheet analysis

Total assets have increased by SEK 5bn from 1 January 2016. Lending volumes, excluding the National Debt Office and
repos, increased by SEK 82bn. The increase primarily relates to Sweden of which SEK 43bn was mortgages. The rose
was offset by lower cash and balances with central banks, which decrease by SEK 65bn. The decrease is mainly
attributable to lower deposits with the US Federal Reserve and central banks in the euro system. Deposits and
borrowings from the public rose by a total of SEK 45bn, mainly for the volumes from Swedish and Baltic private customer
since the corporate deposits fell slightly. Lending to credit institutions decreased by SEK 54bn at the same time that
amounts owed to them decreased by SEK 79bn. Balance sheet items related to credit institutions fluctuate over time
depending on repos, among other things. The market value of derivatives increased on both the asset and liability side,
mainly due to large movements in interest rates and currencies. The increase in securities in issue was mainly a result of
higher issued volumes compared with repaid long-term securities funding of SEK 55bn. Short-term securities funding
decreased by SEK 17bn as an effect of lower issued volumes compared with repaid funding.
Investments in associate increased by SEK 1 658m because the associate VISA Sweden sold its share in VISA Europe to
VISA Inc. See also page 6.

Allocated equity is the operating segment's equity measure and is not a measure that is directly required by IFRS. Allocated equity and return on allocated
equity are therefore considered alternative performance measures. The allocated equity amounts per operating segment are reconciled to the Group Total
equity, the nearest IFRS measure, in the table above. In Swedbanks opinion, the presentation of this measure is relevant for investors since it used by
Group management for internal governance and operating segment performance management purposes.

Allocated equity is the operating segment's equity measure and is not a measure that is directly required by IFRS. Allocated equity and return on allocated
equity are therefore considered alternative performance measures. The allocated equity amounts per operating segment are reconciled to the Group Total
equity, the nearest IFRS measure, in the table above. In Swedbanks opinion, the presentation of this measure is relevant for investors since it used by
Group management for internal governance and operating segment performance management purposes.

Operating segments accounting policies
Operating segment reporting is based on Swedbanks accounting policies, organisation and management
accounting. Market-based transfer prices are applied between operating segments, while all expenses within
Group functions are transfer priced at cost to the operating segments. The net of services purchased and sold
internally is recognised as other expenses in the income statements of the operating segments. Cross-border
transfer pricing is applied according to OECD transfer pricing guidelines.
The Groups equity attributable to shareholders is allocated to each operating segment taking into account capital
adequacy rules and estimated capital requirements based on the banks Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment
Process (ICAAP). All equity is allocated.
The return on allocated equity for the operating segments is calculated based on profit for the period for the operating
segment (operating profit less estimated tax and non-controlling interests), in relation to average monthly allocated equity
for the operating segment. For period shorter than one year the key ratio is annualised.

Net interest margin before trading interest is deducted is calculated as Net interest income before trading interest is deducted, in relation to average
monthly total assets. Net interest income before trading interest is deducted is not a measure that is directly required by IFRS and is considered an
alternative performance measure. The closest IFRS measure is Net interest income and can be reconciled from the table above. In Swedbanks opinion, the
presentation of this measure is relevant for investors as it considers all interest income and expense, independent of how it has been presented in the
income statement. For period shorter than one year the key ratio is annualised.

The table above contains financial instruments measured at fair value by valuation level. The Group uses various
methods to determine the fair value for financial instruments depending on the degree of observable market data in
the valuation and activity in the market. Activity is continuously evaluated by analysing factors such as differences in
bid and ask prices.
The methods are divided into three different levels:

Level 1: Unadjusted, quoted price on an active market
Level 2: Adjusted, quoted price or valuation model with valuation parameters derived from an active market
Level 3: Valuation model where a majority of valuation parameters are non-observable and based on internal
assumptions.
When financial assets and financial liabilities in active markets have market risks that offset each other, an average of
bid and ask prices is used as a basis to determine the fair values of the risk positions that offset each other. For any
open net positions, bid rates are applied for long positions and ask rates for short positions.

The Group has a continuous process whereby financial instruments that indicate a high level of internal estimates or
low level of observable market data are captured. The process determines the way to calculate and how the internal
assumptions are expected to affect the valuation. In cases where internal assumptions have a material impact on fair
value, the financial instrument is reported in level 3. The process also includes an analysis and evaluation based on
the quality of the valuation data as well as whether a type of financial instrument is to be transferred between levels.
When transfers occur between fair value hierarchy levels those are reflected as taking place at the end of each quarter.
There were no transfers of financial instruments between valuation levels 1 and 2 during the quarter.

Level 3 primarily contains unlisted equity instruments and illiquid options. In connection with the sale of shares in
VISA Europe convertible preference shares in VISA Inc. were obtained. The shares are subject to selling restrictions
for a period of up to 12 years and under certain conditions may have to be returned. Because liquid quotes are not
available for the instrument, its fair value is established with significant elements of own internal assumptions and
reported in level 3 as equity instruments. The options hedge changes in the market value of hybrid debt instruments,
so-called structured products. Structured products consist of a corresponding option element and a host contract,
which in principle is an ordinary interest-bearing bond. When the Group evaluates the level on which the financial
instruments are reported, the entire instrument is assessed on an individual basis. Since the bond portion of the
structured products represents the majority of the financial instruments fair value, the internal assumptions used to
value the illiquid option element normally do not have a significant effect on the valuation and the financial instrument
is typically reported in level 2. However, the Group typically hedges the market risks that arise in structured products
by holding individual options. The internal assumptions used to in the valuation of the individual financial instruments
are therefore of greater significance, because of which several are reported as derivatives in level 3.
For all options included in level 3 an analysis is performed based on historical movements in contract prices. Given
this, it is not likely that future price movements will affect the market value for options in level 3 with more than +/-
SEK 19m.
Financial instruments are transferred to or from level 3 depending on whether the internal assumptions have changed
in significance to the valuation.

The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders receive a dividend of SEK 13.20 per ordinary share (10.70) in

In accordance with the balance sheet of Swedbank AB, SEK 54 483m is at the disposal of the Annual General Meeting:
The Board of Directors recommends that the earnings be disposed as follows (SEKm):
A cash dividend of SEK 13.20 per ordinary share 14 695

outstanding ordinary shares at 31 December of 2016, plus 2 505 078 outstanding ordinary shares entitled to dividends
which we expect to exercise by employees between 1 January and 30 March 2017 relating to remuneration programs.

Review report
Introduction
We have reviewed the year-end report for Swedbank AB (publ) for the period 1 January -31 December 2016. The Board
of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this year-end report in accordance
with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies. Our responsibility is to express
a conclusion on this year-end report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410 Review of
Interim Financial Information performed by the companys auditors. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily with
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review
is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing
practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us
aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review
does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the year-end report for the Group is
not, in all material aspects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities
Companies and as regards the parent company in accordance the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and
Securities Companies.
