Annual report 2025KLP Boligkreditt AS

The change in profit before tax compared to last year is mainly due to increased net interest income and higher losses on financial instruments. 

Interest income from loans to customers in 2025 totalled NOK 675.6 (684.6)¹ million. Interest income from bank deposits and securities produced a further NOK 63.5 (58.5) million.  

Interest expenses are divided between NOK 541.8 (566.9) million on covered bonds issued and NOK 73.1 (64.7) million on debt to KLP Banken AS.  

Net interest income thus increased from NOK 111.5 to 124.2 million. 

Lending margins were slightly higher on average than in 2024. This contributed to an increase in net interest income despite falling interest rates through the year. Following the double interest rate cut in September, which took effect for existing customers towards the end of November, margins fell significantly towards the end of the year, but without having any particular impact on the overall result for the year.  

During the term of its borrowing agreements, the Company makes regular adjustments to reduce its liquidity risk and meet regulatory requirements with respect to liquidity and financing. Refinancing of the borrowing side then results in a need to buy back the Company’s own issuance. In 2025, the effect on profits from loan buybacks was NOK -9.9 (-1.5) million.  

Changed credit spreads in the securities market have also affected the Company’s liquidity portfolio. The overall profit/loss effect of changed market values on the Company’s securities investments shows realised and unrealised gains of NOK 1.9 (0.9) million.  

The total accounting effect of changes in the value of financial instruments in 2025 was then NOK -8.0 (0.7) million. See Note 5.  

The Company’s lending is managed by KLP Banken AS, and a large part of the operating expenses are regulated in an agreement with the parent company. Under this agreement, KLP Boligkreditt AS is charged for its share of the parent Company’s costs for the management of mortgages, based on volume. Costs are settled monthly. Operating expenses in excess of this are mainly direct costs incurred by the Company in connection with external assistance, such as rating, auditing, etc. In 2025, the Company’s operating costs were about 1.3 percent higher than last year. 

During 2025, KLP Boligkreditt AS purchased home loans worth NOK 7.3 (4.0) billion from KLP Banken AS. Outstanding mortgages on the Company’s balance sheet totalled NOK 16.0 (12.7) billion at 31.12.2025. 

The mortgage portfolio is secured with collateral within cautious valuations whereby all borrowers are assessed with respect to solvency and willingness to pay before the loan is approved. The average loan per customer came to NOK 1.9 (1.8) million. All lending is at floating interest rates.  

At the end of 2025, the mortgage portfolio in the Company had an average loan-to-value ratio (LTV - debt as a percentage of the estimated value of the home) of 51 (53) percent.  

No individual losses on mortgages were recognised in the Company in 2025, and there were no loans more than 90 days past due at the end of the year. Estimated loan loss provisions had a profit/loss effect of NOK -6 (-26) thousand in the financial year. See Note 7. 

The Company’s liquidity situation is satisfactory, as its financing more than covers the liquidity requirement from operations. 

KLP Boligkreditt AS is subject to strict rules with respect to the assets it may invest in. The portfolio of liquid investments comprises safe securities and deposits in other banks. The securities are certificates and bonds with excellent security, largely covered bonds with an Aaa rating.  

Holdings of cash and cash equivalents have been used to purchase loans or for redemptions and buy-backs of borrowings.  

As new borrowings occur when the terms for them are considered favourable, a need sometimes arises to invest surplus liquidity. This liquidity contributes to earnings and provides the flexibility needed to meet the demand for new lending.  

At the end of the financial year, NOK 0.4 (0.3) billion of the Company’s liquidity was invested in bank deposits and NOK 0.6 (0.8) billion in interest-bearing securities. The securities are recognised at market value.  

KLP Boligkreditt AS has established a programme for issuing covered bonds.  

At the end of the year, the Company had outstanding covered bond debt of NOK 14.0 (10.5) billion. During the year, new covered bonds in the amount of NOK 9.0 (1.0) billion were issued. The remaining financing comprises equity and loans from the parent company.  

The bonds are issued with security in the Company’s mortgage portfolio. All issues have achieved Aaa rating.  

The Company’s debt to credit institutions at the end of the year comprised internal financing from KLP Banken AS in the amount of NOK 1.9 (2.2) billion. 

Total assets stood at NOK 17.0 (13.8) billion at the end of the year.  

The Company’s equity and subordinated loan capital, based on the Board of Directors’ proposal for the allocation of the year’s profit, totalled NOK 1,111 (1,069) million at the end of the year. Core capital is identical with equity and subordinated loan capital. This gives capital adequacy and tier 1 capital ratios of 26.1 (21.6) percent.  

The current capital requirement, including capital buffers, is a 14.0 percent tier 1 core capital ratio and 17.5 percent capital adequacy. The unweighted tier 1 capital ratio was 6.5 (7.7) percent, compared to the requirement of 3.0 percent.  

The risk-weighted balance came to NOK 4.1 (4.8) billion. Capital adequacy is considered good.  

The financial statements for KLP Boligkreditt AS for 2025 show total comprehensive income of NOK 52.4 (42.5) million. The Board proposes that a group contribution with tax effect of NOK 78.4 million be paid to KLP. NOK 61.2 million will be received from KLP as a group contribution without any tax effect. Net profit and group contribution will be transferred to other equity. The group contribution first has an accounting effect at the time of the decision. 

The Board of Directors believes that the financial statements provide a true and fair view of the Company’s assets and liabilities, financial position and profit. The conditions for a going concern are present, and this is assumed in the annual financial statements.  

KLP Boligkreditt AS prepares its financial statements in accordance with international accounting standards (IFRS) as approved by the EU, with associated interpretations. See Note 2 for further details.  

The rating agencies’ assessments of the Company have a bearing on its borrowing terms. The Company has engaged Moody’s to provide a credit rating of the Company’s bonds. All covered bonds issued are rated Aaa. 

KLP Boligkreditt AS is subject to KLP Banken’s risk management framework, the purpose of which is to ensure that risks are identified, analysed and managed by means of policies, limits, procedures and instructions.  

It has established its own guidelines for the most important individual risks (liquidity, credit, market, operational and compliance risk) and an overall policy for risk management, which covers principles, organization, limits, etc. for the Bank’s overall risk. The risk policies are adopted by the Board of Directors and are reviewed at least once a year. The policies are of an overarching nature and are complemented by procedures, rules, and instructions determined at the administrative level.  

The Company aims to maintain a low level of operational risk, and to be characterised by a high level of professional competence, good procedures and efficient operations.  

The Company is included in the KLP Banken Group’s process for assessing and quantifying material risks and calculating its capital and liquidity requirements (ICAAP/ILAAP). The capital requirement assessment is forward-looking and, in addition to calculating needs based on current exposure (and, where appropriate, limits), an assessment is made of needs in light of planned growth, determined strategic changes, etc. The Company’s Board of Directors takes an active part in these assessments and, in addition to the capital requirement assessment, determines a desired level for total capital (capital target).  

The boards of KLP Banken AS, KLP Kommunekreditt AS and KLP Boligkreditt AS have appointed a joint risk committee. The risk committee deals with matters specifically related to risk and has an advisory function to the Board of KLP Boligkreditt AS. 

The Company’s articles of association and applicable legislation provide guidelines for corporate governance and management, and define a clear division of roles between governing bodies and executive management.  

The Board of Directors sets the policies for the Company’s activities. The Board held six meetings in 2025. The Board comprised two women and two men at the end of the year. 

The Managing Director is in charge of the day-to-day management of the Company in accordance with instructions issued by the Board of Directors.  

Board members have taken out directors’ liability insurance. This also covers the managing director. 

There are no direct employees in KLP Boligkreditt AS. The Company’s governance and management are handled by people employed by KLP Banken AS.  

A management agreement has been entered into with KLP Banken AS, covering administration, IT support, finance and risk management, as well as borrowing and liquidity management.  

As part of the KLP Group, KLP Boligkreditt AS complies with the Group’s guidelines on equality and diversity, whose objectives, initiatives and activities take account of the basis for discrimination described in the legislation. A central working group has drawn up internal targets for equality and diversity. 

The Norwegian Transparency Act requires companies to carry out due diligence checks and account for these in their public reporting. For 2025, a Group-wide statement will be prepared pursuant to the Transparency Act for KLP. It will be published on klp.no by 30 June 2026, and KLP Banken will be part of it. The statement will be made available here; Corporate Social Responsibility - About KLP - KLP.no. 

KLP Banken and its subsidiaries are not subject to the requirements for sustainability reporting under the Accounting Act for the 2025 financial year. However, KLP Banken and its subsidiaries are covered by the Group-wide sustainability report prepared for the KLP Group, which can be found in the Group’s annual report published at Financial information - KLP - English.  

KLP Boligkreditt AS is part of the financing structure of the KLP Banken Group.  

KLP Boligkreditt AS has a licence to operate as a mortgage company and will be further developed through the purchase of loans from KLP Banken AS or KLP. The business will be financed mainly through the issuance of covered bonds secured against mortgages. The Company aims to help reduce the banking group’s borrowing costs and so make a major contribution to financing mortgages for KLP’s members.  

The KLP Banken Group’s target group, who are mainly public-sector employees and their households, are more shielded than other groups against risks associated with their employment conditions, as employees in municipalities and health enterprises. The KLP Banken Group therefore assumes that the risk of default and loss will be limited in the future too. 

The EU Capital Requirements Regulation CRR3 entered into force in Norway in 2025. The new rules have set lower capital requirements for mortgage loans for banks that use the standard method to calculate the requirements, such as the KLP Banken Group. The changes will contribute to more equal competitive conditions between standard method banks and IRB banks.  

The Board believes that the potential for further development of the Company is in place and that a significant proportion of the KLP Banken Group’s lending for residential purposes can be financed by KLP Boligkreditt AS, including forms of financing that benefit the environment and sustainability. 

The financial statements for KLP Boligkreditt AS have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards® as adopted by the EU. The Norwegian Accounting Act and the Regulations concerning annual accounts for banks, mortgage firms and finance companies (the Accounting Regulations) contain individual requirements for additional information, which is not required under IFRS Accounting Standards. These supplementary information requirements have been incorporated into the notes to the financial statements. 

The annual accounts have been prepared on the principle of historic cost, with the following exceptions: 

• Financial assets and liabilities (including financial derivatives) are valued at fair value through profit or loss.
• Financial assets and liabilities are valued in accordance with the rules on fair value hedging.

To prepare the accounts in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management must make accounting estimates and approximate valuations. This will affect the value of the company’s assets and liabilities, income and expenses recognised in the financial statements. Actual figures may deviate from estimates used. Areas in which discretionary valuations and estimates of material significance to the company have been used are described in Note 3. 

All amounts are presented in NOK millions without decimals unless stated otherwise. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the going concern assumption.  

The most important accounting policies relating to financial instruments are described below.

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as receivables from credit institutions without termination date. The amount does not include receivables from credit institutions that are linked to purchase and sale of securities in the management of the securities portfolios. The statement of cash flows has been prepared in accordance with the direct method.

The company’s financial liabilities comprise liabilities to credit institutions and covered bonds issued.

Tax costs in the income statement comprise tax payable and changes in deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit and loss account in the period in which it is incurred. Deferred tax and tax assets are calculated as differences between the accounting and taxation value of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are capitalised to the extent it can be shown probable that the company will have sufficient taxable profit to exploit the tax asset. 

The company is a part of a financial services group and a tax group. Except for the limitations pursuant to the Financial Institutions Act, any tax-related surplus may be passed in its entirety to the parent company and subsidiaries as a group contribution with tax effect. 

Group contributions that are proposed but not approved by the general meeting are classified as equity. When the group contribution is approved, it is reclassified as a liability. The tax effect of the group contribution is included in the calculation of deferred tax until the date of approval. 

The company pays no benefits to employees and is not covered by the rules on financial activity tax. The company’s nominal income tax rate in 2025 is 22 percent.  

The measurement of the provision for expected credit losses on financial assets according to IFRS 9 depends on whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. At initial recognition and if the credit risk has not increased significantly, the provision should equal 12-month expected credit losses (stage 1). If the credit risk has increased significantly from the initial recognition (stage 2) or if the asset is classified as impaired (stage 3), the provision should equal lifetime expected credit losses.  

Expected credit loss (ECL) is calculated as the exposure at default (EAD) multiplied by the probability of default (PD) multiplied by the loss given default (LGD). 

Probability of Default (PD) is a calculated probability based on statistical models to estimate the probability of an exposure going into default during the following 12-month period (12-month PD). In addition to calculating 12 months PD, the bank has developed PD graphs used for calculating marginal PD for the exposure’s remaining lifetime (Lifetime PD). 

Loss given default (LGD) is what the bank expects to lose given that an exposure goes into default. The calculation is based on how probable it is that a defaulted exposure is cured and expected credit loss if the exposure is not cured. 

Exposure at default (EAD) is expected exposure at the moment of a future default.  

In KLP Boligkreditt AS, the assessment of what is considered to be a significant change in credit risk for retail mortgage loans is based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative indicators and ‘backstops’. The most important driver for a significant change in credit risk for retail mortgage loan is a change in the probability of default (PD) from the initial recognition up to the reporting date. A relative change in 12 month PD of more than 1.5 is considered a significant change in credit risk. In addition, the change in 12 month PD must also be at least 0.6 percentage points for the change to be considered significant. Exposures that are more than 30 days past due will automatically be placed in Stage 2, and exposures more than 90 days past due will be placed in Stage 3. The loans go back to Stage 2 and Stage 1 when the criteria for significant change in credit risk and default are no longer fulfilled. A loan in stage 3 will be three months in quarantine before it will be moved back to stage 2 or 1. Based on this a loan will remain in stage three for three months after the loan is reported “healthy”.

Default is defined as a claim that is over 90 days past due, or an account that has been continuously overdrawn for a minimum of 90 days (minimum amount NOK 1,000). Furthermore, a commitment is considered as default if for various reasons it has been written off, e.g. through debt negotiations, established debt settlement and/or bankruptcy. 

Mortgages in arrears are handled by a special commitments department in the bank, Banken Group currently uses its own collection process up to and including legally enforced recovery and execution of sale/foreclosure. If a repayment agreement is not reached, any residual debt after realisation of the collateral is transferred to a collection agency for further follow-up. 

KLP Banken has developed PD and LGD models for the bank's/group's mortgage loan portfolio. A PD model has been developed for new mortgage customers and a PD model for existing mortgage customers. The first model uses data that is available at the time of application and is valid for three months after the mortgage is granted. The second model begins after three months, and also include data that depends on the customer's behaviour (for example the number of days in arrears). Explanatory variables are age, income, number of reminders sent in the last 12 months, total number of days in arrears in the last 12 months, loan-to-value ratio, co-borrower, defaults in the last 12 months and product type.  

The most important measure for a PD model is the model's ability to discriminate, i.e. the ability to distinguish between high- and low risk customers. The ability to discriminate is measured using ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic), which provides some information about the proportion of predictions that are correct.

The lifetime probability of default (Lifetime PD) is used for all retail mortgage loans in KLP Banken Groups excluding senior loans where a simplified model for expected loss is used. The lifetime probability of default (LTPD) of an exposure is calculated based on aggregated figures for historically observed default rates for each year of  all exposures  and each exposure’s probability of default 12 months after start. The results from model development show that the default rate increases slightly in year 2 before then decreasing, so that the PD in year 2 is higher than in year 1. This is in line with the expected result, since it is expected that it will take some time before a newly granted mortgage loan experiences problems. A customer will typically seek to avoid default on the mortgage loan, and will typically default on other debts before he goes into default on the mortgage loan. The reduction in PD after year 2 can be explained by a “survivorship effect”, i.e. the contracts that have not defaulted in the first 2 years are typically of better credit quality, and as the loans are repaid the risk becomes lower. Experience from the industry is that contracts that have existed for a certain period of time converge towards a stable observed default rate. For KLP Banken/Group’s mortgage loan portfolio, 3 years has been set as the parameter for when the default level converges towards a long-term PD level. The long-term PD level is set at 0.3 percent, which corresponds to the average PD for the best contracts in the portfolio.

Exposure at default (EAD) is used for all mortgages in KLP Banken/Group excluding senior loans where a simplified model for expected loss is used. The EAD model has the same data sample as the LTPD model. If an exposure is at default, the exposure's balance at the time will be the bank's/group's exposure at default. EAD can be expressed for an exposure as a function of the likelihood that the contract will not be repaid within the time t. For repayment loans, EAD at time t is estimated as the exposure's balance at the time pursuant to the repayment schedule multiplied by the likelihood of the contract not being repaid within time t. The probability of a contract being terminated early within the year t is calculated as a percentage for each year in the future from 1 to 7 years.

Loss given default (LGD) When estimating future credit loss it is important to look at the proportion of customers in default whose accounts become cured. The bank/group has examined at all historical defaults over 90 days  and analysed the outcomes of these defaults. The results of the analysis show a very high level of defaults becoming cured. KLP Banken/Group has, since its inception, handled defaults and debt collection internally within the bank/group, and has one dedicated employee who handles exposures in default. The cases are followed closely, and there has been a limited number of defaults since the bank's inception. The analysis shows that the bank has had minimal losses, and most defaults have been reported as cured.  

Cured default is defined as the account returning to ongoing status (no longer 90 days past due/90 days in arrears over the bank's significant amount), or that the account is terminated without loss (typically through voluntary sale of collateral or refinancing in another bank). Non-cured default is defined as where the recovery process has resulted in the account having an established loss, or that an application for distraint has been made against the customer (foreclosure of the property or recovery of guarantee). Customers with status "nothing for distraint" also belong in this category). If the customer has entered into debt negotiations, this is also defined as non-cured default. One last possibility is that we do not know the final outcome of the default due to a short time horizon between the default date and modelling date. The figure below illustrates the various outcomes for a default. 

The observed cure rate is calculated and validated at least yearly in the same way as it during model development. If the observed cure rate deviates by more than 10 percentage points from the estimate used in the IFRS 9 model, an assessment shall be made of whether measures are needed, e.g. a re-estimation of the model.

A part of the assessment of future losses is the assessment of how the future will look regarding to the macroeconomic conditions that affect the bank's credit losses, e.g. interest rates, housing prices, unemployment rates etc. To calculate the expected credit loss (ECL), the bank has assumed three different scenarios, which are weighted for probability based on an assessment of the probability of each of the three outlined scenarios occurring. The scenarios used by the bank are one basis scenario, one pessimistic scenario and one optimistic scenario for expected credit loss, where the three scenarios have a factor for outcome and a probability that the scenario occurs. The sum of the weighted scenarios constitutes the expected credit loss, and the probability that each scenario will occur will thus affect the expected credit loss. In the basis scenario we assume unchanged house prices and stabile PD. In the negative scenario, a house price fall of 15 percent and a doubling of the average PD are assumed, while the number of cured defaults decrease with 5 percent. This scenario is given a 20 percent weight. In the positive scenario it is assumed that house prices increase with 5 percent and that the PD is halved. The positive scenario is given a 20 percent weight. The basis scenario is thereby given a 60 percent weight. It is assumed that a loan will have the same staging in all the scenarios.

KLP Banken's risk forum assesses these scenarios and their weighting on a quarterly basis, based on changes in macroeconomic factors or other factors that may affect expected credit loss in the bank.  

KLP Boligkreditt AS is a wholly owned subsidiary of KLP Banken AS. The Board of Directors of the Bank has established a risk management framework aimed at ensuring that risks are identified, analysed and managed based on policies, limits, procedures and instructions. The Board has adopted risk policies covering the key individual risks as well as an overarching risk policy that covers principles, organisation, limits etc. for the Bank’s total risk. The risk policies are of an overarching nature and are complemented by procedures, guidelines and instructions laid down at the senior management level. The policies state which departments are responsible for handling the various risks and cover the establishment of a separate risk control function. One purpose of the risk control function is to check that the risk policies and other guidelines for risk management are being followed. This function is carried out by the head of the Risk Analysis and Control Department, which is responsible for preparing periodic risk reports to senior management and the Board, as well as reporting on any breaches of policies or guidelines. The Department, which has an independent role in relation to other departments, also has other tasks associated with the Bank’s risk management. The responsibility for the operational direction of the Bank’s liquidity risk and interest rate risk lies with the Finance Department. 

The Board has adopted a policy for credit risk which contains overarching guidelines, requirements and limits associated with credit risk. The policy states that KLP Boligkreditt AS should have a low credit risk profile and includes limits on types of lending and principles for the organisation and operation of the Bank’s lending activity. The policy also includes an overarching mandate structure for lending and other counterparty exposure.

Credit risk associated with issuers of securities, derivative counterparties and other counterparties in the financial area is also limited by Board-determined limits on individual counterparties. These limits are based on the counterparty’s solvency and other assessments of counterparties’ creditworthiness.

KLP Boligkreditt only provides loans mortgaged in residential property. In processing loan applications the borrower’s servicing ability and the value of the mortgage object is assessed and loans are provided only within set limits and authorisations.

The market value of the mortage assets is updated quarterly against the market value of housing in Norway provided by Eiendomsverdi AS.

KLP Boligkreditt uses a risk classification system to classify retail customers with loans or credits. Customers are classified from A to K, where A indicates very low risk while K is for customers on which the bank has incurred ascertained losses. Below is a distribution table with the volume of loans divided into low, medium and high risk, where low risk is defined as lending to customers in class A or B, medium risk is defined as lending to customers in class C or D, and high risk is defined as lending to customers in classes E to K.

The table below shows the total book value of the various risk classes and per stage in the impairment model. Stage 1 is all healthy loans, which must be written down by the expected losses for 12 months. Stage 2 indicates that the exposure has a substantially increased credit risk since its initial recognition on the balance sheet, and means that the loan must be written down by the estimated losses throughout the entire term. Stage 3 is all loans in default (over 90 days past due) or with individual loss write-downs, which must be written down by the estimated losses throughout the entire term.

The Company also invests in securities issued by municipalities and county administrations and will in addition have credit risk exposure in the form of “additional collateral”. The additional collateral can amount up to 20 percent of the cover. In accordance with the Company’s internal guidelines the additional collateral may be in the form of deposits in banks satisfying minimum rating requirements as well as covered bonds issued by Norwegian credit enterprises.

KLP Boligkreditt AS measures maximum exposure as principal and accrued interest. No collateral in cash or securities is exchanged, nor are other credit improvements carried out. The table below shows the maximum exposure for KLP Boligkreditt AS.

The Company has not incurred losses on lending. The company considers all receivables to be satisfactorily secured. The loans are secured with mortgages, and losses will only arise when the value of the mortgaged object falls below the residual amount of the loan.

The Company's lending is in its entirety linked to financing of real estate where the loans are mainly secured with mortgages within 75 percent of the market value. All borrowers are Norwegian and the collateral is in Norwegian real estate. The company has a risk consentration where it is exposed to a general impairment in the Norwegian housing market.

The concentration against individual borrowers is limited by individual Board-set limits. KLP Boligkreditt AS’s largest exposure as at 31 December 2025 was about 0.1 percent of the Company's total lending.

Interest rate risk is measured as change in value on a one percentage point change in all interest rates.

The market risk policy is the Company’s overarching guidelines, requirements and limits associated with market risk. The policy dictates that the market risk should be minimized so that the total market risk is low. It further states that the Company should not actively take positions that expose the Company to market risk. The policy also sets limits for interest rate risk both for the total interest rate risk for the infinite future and for rolling 12-month periods. The risk limits are set to ensure that the low market risk profile policy is complied with. The operational responsibility for managing the Company’s market risk lies with the Finance Department in KLP Banken. The Risk Analysis and Control Department reports the Company's actual exposure in relation to limits in accordance with guidelines set by the Board.

Interest rate risk arises because the fixed interest periods for the bank’s assets and liabilities are not the same. The table below shows repricing dates for the Company’s interest-bearing assets and liabilities, and the gap shows the difference between assets and liabilities that can be interest-adjusted within the given time intervals. Lending at variable rates, and cash and receivables with credit institutions, are assumed to be able to be repriced within a 0-3 month horizon. The debt falls into the time interval for which interest adjustment has been agreed.

The Company’s interest rate sensitivity as at 31 December 2025 (2024), measured as value change in the event of one percentage point change in all interest rates, was NOK 0.2 million (-5.7 million).

The management of KLP Boligkreditt’s liquidity risk must be viewed in the context of the management of the liquidity risk in the KLP Banken Group. A liquidity policy is established for the Group containing principles, guidelines, requirements and limits that apply to the management of the liquidity risk. The policy states that the Group is to have a moderate liquidity risk profile and various requirements and limits have been set to achieve this, including targets for deposit cover, limits for refinancing requirements for various time periods and requirements for liquidity buffers. The Board has further adopted an emergency plan for liquidity crises as part of the liquidity policy. In addition to the requirements at Group level, separate specific requirements have been established for KLP Boligkreditt, including requirements for continually positive cash flows, limits for refinancing requirements and requirements for liquidity reserves and drawing rights. The operational responsibility for managing the Company’s liquidity risk lies with the Finance Department. The Risk Management and Compliance Department reports the Company's actual exposure in relation to limits in accordance with guidelines set by the Board.

The bank holds deposits and a well-diversified securities portfolio to manage liquidity risk. The securities portfolio consists of securities issued by the government, municipalities, and other LCR-approved 0 percent risk-weighted assets, as well as covered bonds issued by Norwegian credit institutions. The securities are spread across several counterparties, and the bank also has established credit lines that set limits on large exposures. The bank's securities portfolio is intended to have low credit risk and will consist exclusively of securities rated AA or AAA.

The tables below show the maturity analysis of the Company’s assets and liabilities including stipulated interest rates.
