Swedbank's board of directors have decided to withdraw the previously set financial goals, with the exception of the dividend policy below.
Dividend
The dividend, excluding non-recurring items, will amount to around 40 percent of earnings after tax. The size of the annual dividend is based on the last dividend and is determined with reference to expected profit trends, the capital considered necessary to develop operations and the market’s required return.
