Nordnet AB (publ) – interim report January-March 2022

Nordnet today publishes its interim report for the first quarter 2022. The full report is available at www.nordnetab.com

- The first quarter of the year was a dramatic period in several different ways. Naturally, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine placed humanitarian, political and financial considerations high on the agenda. Despite the challenging circumstances in the world, Nordnet’s operations developed positively during the quarter, with strong underlying growth. Net savings reach as high as SEK 21 billion and our loan portfolio achieved a new record high. In conclusion, with an adjusted operating profit of SEK 580 million, we are able to deliver our second-best quarterly result to date. We are very grateful for the trust of the Nordic savers and continue to work every day towards the vision of building the best platform for savings and investments, says Lars-Åke Norling, CEO of Nordnet.
