Risk-adjusted profit
Nordea has introduced a target for risk-adjusted profit in order to signal the ambition to grow the business and thereby contribute to retaining high profitability. Risk-adjusted profit is based on Economic Profit less cost of equity. Risk-adjusted profit is adjusted for major non-recurring items. The target for Risk-adjusted profit is to double in 7 years, which implies an annual growth rate of on average 10%.
