Nordea's General Meeting 2026

The virtual meeting format enables all shareholders to participate in the decision-making of the AGM and to engage with the management regardless of the shareholders’ geographical location, supporting the equal exercise of shareholders’ rights in Nordea. Participating in the AGM via remote connection enables shareholders to exercise their shareholder rights in real-time, including the ability to vote and comment and ask questions orally during the meeting. 

Shareholders may also exercise their right to vote at the AGM by voting in advance.

In addition, prior to the AGM, a separate online event will be held during which the President and Group CEO will present the key highlights of the financial year 2025, key priorities for Nordea’s next strategy period as well as the financial targets for 2030, which will be followed by a Q&A segment with senior management. For more information, please see “Pre-AGM Management Q&A” below.

Pre-AGM Management Q&A

Before the AGM, a separate online event will be held during which the President and Group CEO will present an overview of the key highlights of the financial year 2025, key priorities for Nordea’s next strategy period as well as the financial targets for 2030, which will be followed by a Q&A segment with senior management.

The event starts at 13.00 EET, and it may be viewed online via a live webcast. 

The link for registering for the event and further instructions will be available on this website on 2 March 2026 at the latest.

It is possible to submit questions to the Q&A session with senior management both before and during the webcast until the end of the Q&A session. You can submit questions already when registering for the event. 

Before the event, questions can be submitted by email to investor-relations [at] nordea.com (investor-relations[at]nordea[dot]com). The Company will strive to answer all questions received before the event. 

Please note that the event is not part of the AGM, and questions submitted before the event or through the webcast do not constitute questions referred to in Chapter 5, Section 25 of the Finnish Companies Act.

Nominee registered shares

A holder of nominee registered shares has the right to participate in the AGM by virtue of the shares based on which they on the record date of the AGM on 12 March 2026 would be entitled to be registered in the shareholders’ register of the Company held by Euroclear Finland Oy. The right to participate in the AGM requires, in addition, that the shareholder on the basis of such shares has been registered in the temporary shareholders’ register held by Euroclear Finland Oy by 10.00 EET on 19 March 2026 at the latest. In terms of nominee registered shares, this constitutes due registration for the AGM pursuant to the Finnish Companies Act.

A holder of nominee registered shares is advised to request without delay the relevant instructions from their custodian bank regarding registration in the temporary shareholders’ register of the Company, the issuing of proxy documents and voting instructions. The account management organisation of the custodian bank shall register a holder of nominee registered shares who wants to participate in the AGM in the temporary shareholders’ register of the Company and vote in advance on behalf of the nominee registered shareholder by 10.00 EET on 19 March 2026 at the latest. Holders of nominee registered shares cannot themselves register directly for the AGM on the Company’s website and must be registered through their custodians.

Accordingly, holders of nominee registered shares who wish to participate via remote connection, are advised to request, without delay, instructions from their custodian bank. If a holder of nominee registered shares has authorised their custodian to cast advance votes on their behalf, such advance votes will be taken into account as advance votes of the nominee registered shareholder, unless the holder of nominee registered shares votes differently at the AGM.

For the avoidance of doubt, instructions for shareholders whose shares are held in trust in Sweden or Denmark are set out in the notice to the AGM and above under heading “Shareholders registered in Sweden or Denmark”.
