Swedbank’s aim is to maintain credit ratings on par with those of the banks with the highest credit ratings in the Nordic region.
Swedbank is rated by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch, to provide debt investors with an external assessment of the bank’s financial and credit position. Ratings are assigned both to the bank’s short-term and long-term funding programmes. The Group’s covered bond programme is rated by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s.
