Länsförsäkringar Hypotek: Interim report January-September 2010

Report this content

The trend in net interest income was positive during the period as a result of volume increases, a higher market interest-rate level and pricing that was adapted to the cost situation in the borrowing market. Länsförsäkringar’s market position as the fifth largest mortgage institution was strengthened and the number of customers rose. Nearly eight of ten retail mortgage customers, also have Länsförsäkringar as their principal bank. It is thus highly gratifying that Länsförsäkringar has Sweden’s most satisfied banking customers in the retail market, according to the Swedish Quality Index 2010. Credit quality remains favourable and refinancing activities have been effective, which means that the liquidity situation also remained strong,” says Anders Borgcrantz, President of Länsförsäkringar Hypotek AB.
