Us as a company

What we believe in

Since our founding more than 160 years ago, we have been guided by a strong belief that entrepreneurial minds and innovative companies are key in creating a better world. To that end, we aim to deliver world-class service to our customers by collaborating, simplifying unnecessary complexity, and holding ourselves accountable. We play an active role in societal development by helping entrepreneurs and great companies achieve their aspirations and by leading the financial industry and our clients toward sustainable business models.

Where we work

Our origins and headquarters are in Stockholm, Sweden, but we have a presence and operations in over 20 countries worldwide in order to better serve our international customers. In Sweden and the Baltic countries, SEB offers universal financial services, while in the rest of the world, SEB focuses on full-service corporate and investment banking.

Our local office in Poland is located on the 7th floor of the “Norblin Factory” office complex in central Warsaw. The unique, modern space, featuring high quality architecture, ecological and sustainable development, green spaces, shopping, and promotion of sport and art in common spaces will serve as the new home for SEB Poland.

How we got here

In 1856, A.O. Wallenberg founded Stockholms Enskilda Banken which, with a merger along the way, became modern day Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken (SEB). The Wallenberg family have been a major part of SEB ever since and have grown the bank and an extensive network of other companies and initiatives that play a major role in northern Europe and the world. For example, the Wallenberg Foundations distribute approximately SEK 2.1 billion annually for research and education in Sweden.
