Highlights of Stadshypotek s Annual Report January December FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE Full year compared with full year Operating profit increased by SEK 1,892 million to SEK 7,886 million (5,994). Net interest income amounted to SEK 8,052 million (6,244), with the branch in Norway accounting for SEK 649 million (396), the branch in Denmark for SEK 115 million (89) and the branch in Finland, which was established on 1 May, for SEK 258 million (79). Excluding the branches, net interest income thus increased by SEK 1,350 million. The growth in net interest income was attributable to an increase in lending volume and to improved margins due to the company s good position in the funding market. Net gains/losses on financial items at fair value amounted to SEK 150 million (19). Expenses rose by SEK 19 million to SEK 288 million (269). This increase was primarily due to IT expenses related to the branch in Finland, and to services purchased from the parent company. Net loan losses totalled SEK 21 million. In, recoveries exceeded new loan losses and totalled SEK 12 million net. Before deduction of the provision for probable loan losses, the volume of impaired loans was SEK 141 million (110). SEK 94 million (57) of the impaired loans were non-performing loans, while SEK 47 million (53) were loans on which the borrowers pay interest and amortisation, but which are nevertheless regarded as impaired. There were also non-performing loans of SEK 1,008 million (906) that are not classed as being impaired loans. After deduction for specific provisions totalling SEK -50 million (-44) and collective provisions of SEK -4 million (-6) for probable loan losses, impaired loans totalled SEK 87 million (60). compared with Q3 Stadshypotek s operating profit increased by SEK 132 million to SEK 2,071 million (1,939). Net interest income grew by SEK 207 million to SEK 2,161 million (1,954). SEK 208 million (161) of the net interest income was attributable to the branch in Norway, SEK 33 million (31) to the branch in Denmark and SEK 82 million (69) to the branch in Finland. Excluding the branches, net interest income increased by SEK 145 million. Net gains/losses on financial items at fair value amounted to SEK 22 million (53). Expenses grew by SEK 34 million to SEK 95 million (61), mainly due to an increase of SEK 27 million in administrative expenses. The increase was chiefly attributable to services purchased from the parent company, expenses related to the updating of existing international loan programmes, and IT expenses. GROWTH IN LENDING Loans to the public increased by around 6 per cent, or SEK 47 billion, from the end of the previous year, and stood at SEK 891 billion (844). On 1 September, Stadshypotek s branch in Finland acquired a mortgage loan portfolio of around EUR 0.5 billion from the parent company s branch in Finland, which corresponds to approximately SEK 4 billion of the increase in lending during the year. FUNDING Issues of covered bonds from Stadshypotek's benchmark series during the year totalled SEK 90.0 billion (102.8). Issues of covered bonds under the EMTCN programme totalled the equivalent of approximately EUR 3.9 billion (4.1), and under the American programme, an issue of USD 1.5 billion was carried out. During the year, Stadshypotek issued covered bonds on the Norwegian market for the first time. In total, NOK 8.8 billion was issued in.

Notes The information in these notes relates to both the Group and the parent company. NOTE 1 Accounting policies Information relating to the Group has been stated in accordance with IAS 34. The contents of the report also comply with the applicable provisions of the Swedish Act on Annual Reports in Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority s regulations and general guidelines FFFS 2008:25 on annual reports in credit institutions and securities companies and recommendations from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The report for the parent company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Act on Annual Reports in Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority s regulations and general guidelines FFFS 2008:25 on annual reports in credit institutions and securities companies. None of the changes in the accounting standards which have come into force during the year has had a material impact on the parent company s or the Group s financial reports. The Group s and parent company s reports have been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies and calculation methods that were applied in the annual report for. NOTE 2 Other information RISK Stadshypotek s operations are conducted with a controlled low level of risk. Stadshypotek s risks are credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, operational risk and business risk. Credit risk is the risk that an individual borrower cannot fulfil his or her commitments. Market risk is the risk of price changes in the financial markets. The market risks affecting Stadshypotek are interest rate risk and exchange rate risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that Stadshypotek will not be able to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. Operational risk is the risk of processing errors in procedures and systems, and business risk is the risk of unexpected changes in financial performance. Credit risk is the most significant risk for Stadshypotek. The Stadshypotek board establishes policies which describe how various risks should be managed and reported. In addition, Stadshypotek s chief executive sets guidelines and instructions for managing and controlling all types of risk. These documents have been based on the policies that the Handelsbanken Board has adopted for managing and reporting risks within the Handelsbanken Group as a whole. Stadshypotek s risk management aims to ensure compliance with the strict approach to risk established by the board. Stadshypotek s lending operations and treasury function are integrated with those of Handelsbanken, which means that Stadshypotek s lending is carried out via the Bank s branch network. A collaboration agreement regulates the overall relationship between the parties and specifies the services which Handelsbanken is to perform on behalf of Stadshypotek. Thus, the business operations at Stadshypotek are conducted according to the same fundamental principles which apply at Handelsbanken. The Bank s corporate culture is centred around the principle of delegating responsibility to the employees who make business decisions. The person who is most familiar with the customer and the market conditions is also the best person to assess the risk. In Handelsbanken s decentralised organisation, the positive and negative outcomes of each branch are evaluated, which provides a natural risk limitation and caution in business operations. In addition to the accountability of decision-makers, control procedures are in place to ensure that excessive risks are not taken in individual transactions or local operations. In lending, this means that limits are set for large loans and these loans are assessed by a special credit organisation. Decisions on limits are made at the branch, at regional level or at central level, depending on the size of the credit limit. Procedures also exist to limit market risk and liquidity risk at Stadshypotek. Here, the company s board establishes limits. However, the limits set by the board of Stadshypotek may not exceed the limits for market risks and liquidity risks assigned by Handelsbanken to Stadshypotek. Stadshypotek has risk control which is independent of the business operations for the regular follow-up and monitoring of all risks applying to operations, primarily credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and operational risk. The risk control function carries out daily measurements and checks to ensure that risk exposure remains within the set limits. Limit utilisation is reported internally within the company, and to the parent company s central risk control function. In addition, limit utilisation is reported regularly to the chief executive and board of Stadshypotek as well as to the Group Chief Executive, CFO and Board of Handelsbanken. Stadshypotek is also covered by the central risk control at Handelsbanken, which is designed to identify the Handelsbanken Group s risks, gauge them, and ensure that management of these risks complies with the Group s low risk tolerance. The central risk control function is responsible for the independent reporting of risks for the banking group of which Stadshypotek is a part. Further, the central risk control function develops and provides models for measuring risk that are applied in Stadshypotek s operations and perform certain calculations that provide a basis for some of Stadshypotek s external reporting. Stadshypotek has a contingency plan for managing a liquidity shortage, and this plan also describes the company s liquidity-creating measures. Moreover, regular stress tests are carried out on the company s cash flows on the basis of certain assumptions relevant to the business. Stress tests for the entire group are also performed by the central risk control function, and here, Stadshypotek s liquidity requirements are taken into consideration. Moreover, Stadshypotek has a procedure for continual capital planning to ensure that it has a sufficient amount of capital to secure the company s survival if a serious loss were to occur, notwithstanding the measures taken to manage the risks. The method for calculating economic capital ensures that all risks are considered in a uniform manner when the need for capital is assessed. Information about credit risks regarding loan losses and about non-performing loans and impaired loans can be found in notes 6 and 7 of this report. At ember, Stadshypotek s interest rate risk in the case of a parallel increase in the yield curve of one percentage point was SEK -185 million (-129), which was well within the limit set by the board. 6 STADSHYPOTEK HIGHLIGHTS OF ANNUAL REPORT JANUARY DECEMBER

Hedged risks in hedging packages at fair value comprise interest rate risk on lending and funding at fixed interest rates and currency risk on funding in foreign currency. The hedging instruments in these hedging packages consist of interest rate swaps and cross-currency interest rate swaps. Fair value hedges are also applied for portfolios of financial instruments. The hedged risk in these portfolio hedges is the interest rate risk for lending where the original interest rate was fixed for three months and interest rate caps for lending with a fixedinterest period of three months. The hedging instruments in these portfolio hedges consist of interest rate swaps and interest rate options (caps). Interest rate swaps and currency swaps are also used as hedges for changes in market value without hedge accounting being applied. STADSHYPOTEK HIGHLIGHTS OF ANNUAL REPORT JANUARY DECEMBER 13

The basic principle is that organisation and working practices are determined by the branch offices of the Handelsbanken Group, which are responsible for all the business of individual customers. One consequence of this approach is that Stadshypotek s lending operations are run via Handelsbanken s Swedish branch operations and the lending operations in Stadshypotek s branches in Norway, Denmark and Finland are run via Handelsbanken s branch operations in the respective countries. Lending is to be carried out to the extent and on the terms stated in Guidelines for granting credits, established annually by the board of Stadshypotek. These guidelines include the maximum permitted loan-to-value ratio for various property types, as well as the decision limits which apply to the branches lending. In addition, for loan amounts in excess of a certain limit, an advance examination of the case is to be conducted by Stadshypotek s credit department before the loan can be disbursed. Stadshypotek s treasury function is also integrated with Handelsbanken s Treasury department. Functions necessary for management and control of the company remain within Stadshypotek. Those services which Handelsbanken performs on behalf of Stadshypotek are regulated in a collaboration agreement between the parties. Most of the inter-company transactions are thus with the parent company, Handelsbanken. The services that Stadshypotek purchases from the parent company, which are included in other administrative expenses, consist primarily of IT services and the treasury function. As in previous years, no payments have been made to the parent company in respect of the services performed by the latter in relation to the sale and administration of mortgage loans in Sweden. However, at Stadshypotek s branches outside Sweden, payments in line with market levels have been made to Handelsbanken s branches in the respective countries in respect of services performed by these branches on behalf of Stadshypotek s branches in relation to the sale and administration of mortgage loans. In addition, inter-company transactions consist of funding from the parent company, derivative transactions and lending to the parent company.

Since ember 2010, the advanced IRB approach has been applied for medium-sized companies, housing co-operative associations and property companies. For the remaining credit risk exposures, the capital requirement is measured using the Basel II standardised regulations. STADSHYPOTEK HIGHLIGHTS OF ANNUAL REPORT JANUARY DECEMBER 15
