Note 4 - Segment information

Management have made an assessment of which business areas are deemed reportable based on form of distribution, products and customers. The primary reporting format takes as a starting point risk and yield profiles of various assets, and reporting is divided into private customers, (including independent business operators), the corporate market, capital markets and subsidiaries. The bank's own investing activities are not a separate segment and appear under the item "unallocated" together with activities which cannot be allocated to either private or business segments. 

The Bank operates in a limited geographical area and reporting along the lines of geographic secondary segments provides little additional information. 

Significant types of assets (loan) allocated geographically in a separate note under loans.
