Future growth and
profitability
Swedbank is the leading bank in
Sweden. Profitability is high and
stable and the bank is
consolidating its market shares in
important segments in both the
private and corporate sectors.
Swedbank has a small but
growing presence in Ukraine and
Russia. In the long term, a
significant share of Swedbank’s
growth will be generated in these
markets.
The Baltic economies are
experiencing strong economic
growth that is expected to remain
for many years. As the largest
bank in the region, growing with
the market ensures attractive
earnings growth.
