SEB (Sell, TP: SEK95.00) - Capital impairments

We have updated our estimates following SEB’s announcements last week relating to the negative financial effects of changed accounting standards and one-off charges. This is set to result in a SEK8.2bn negative effect on equity over Q4 2017–Q1 2018, including SEK2.2bn one-offs booked through the P&L in Q4, which will also reduce the CET1 buffer by 50bp. Nonetheless, we expect the bank’s capital position to remain strong, and that SEB will propose a healthy DPS increase to SEK6.00 for 2017 (SEK5.50 in 2016). We see limited operating implications and read-across to peers from the announcements. We reiterate our SEK95 target price and SELL recommendation on SEB.
