SEB Bank will pay €51.4 million in solidarity levy to the state for the nine months.

The net value of SEB's loan and leasing portfolio stood at €6.9 billion at the end of September, compared to €6.6 billion a year earlier.

The bank's total deposit portfolio stood at €10.9 billion at the end of September, compared to €10 billion a year earlier.
