SEB completes share buyback programme

SEB has completed its latest share buyback programme under which SEK 1.25 billion of Class A shares has been repurchased. 

On 15 July 2026, SEB announced a SEK 1.25 billion share buyback programme for capital management purposes. The repurchases of shares began on 16 July 2026 and ended on 20 October 2026. During this period, SEB repurchased 5,567,429 of its own Class A shares at an average price per share of SEK 224.52, for a total purchase amount of SEK 1.25 billion. 

In light of continued loan growth in combination with a temporary higher capital requirement from the Swedish FSA, effective as of 31 December 2026, the Board of Directors has decided to pause share buybacks. 

As of 30 September 2026, the total number of issued shares in SEB amounted to 1,985,461,084 and SEB held 40,897,842 own shares. 

Information about the repurchases under the share buyback programme is published weekly on SEB’s website, www.sebgroup.com.
