KLP Banken Group
Interim Financial Statements 1/2026
Main features at quarter end:
- Strong loan growth in the retail market
- Lower net interest income
- Increased operating expenses
The KLP Banken Group finances mortgages and other credits to retail customers as well as loans to municipalities, county municipalities and companies that perform public tasks. Additionally, the KLP Banken manages a lending portfolio on behalf of its parent company KLP (Kommunal Landspensjonskasse). The Group manages a lending total of NOK 141 (130) billion. Lending activities are nationwide and are divided into the business segments retail market and public-sector market.
In the retail market, the bank offers products and services on competitive terms in order to help ensure that organisations which have chosen KLP as their pension provider are perceived as attractive employers.
In the public-sector lending market, KLP Kommunekreditt AS, together with KLP, contributes to competition and thereby helps ensure that the sector has access to favourable long-term financing.
KLP Banken AS is wholly owned by KLP. KLP Banken AS has two wholly owned credit institutions, KLP Kommunekreditt AS and KLP Boligkreditt AS. The head office is in Trondheim.
Income statement
The KLP Banken Group’s profit before tax for the first quarter amounted to NOK 38.7 (76.6) million. The change in results is mainly due to lower net interest income in both business areas as well as increased operating expenses.
Broken down by segment, profit before tax amounted to NOK 28.4 (55.1) million in the retail market and NOK 10.3 (21.5) million in the public-sector market. After tax and estimate deviations, the Group’s total comprehensive income for the first quarter was NOK 55.7 (77.6) million.
Net interest income in the KLP Banken Group at the end of the first quarter was NOK 101.7 (133.0) million. The reduction is mainly due to lower margins between lending and funding in the retail market. Strong loan growth has led to increased reliance on market funding, resulting in higher average funding costs in the first quarter.
At the end of the quarter, the income statement includes net gains on financial instruments of NOK 7.3 (1.3) million. This effect is mainly related to the repurchase of the Group’s own issued debt and to changes in the market value of the bank’s liquidity investments. The change from last year is mainly due to an increase in the market value of the bank’s liquid investments.
Net fees and commission income amounted to NOK 9.5 (7.9) million in the first quarter.
The banking group manages residential mortgages and public-sector loans financed by the parent company (KLP). Management fees for this assignment amounted to NOK 15.9 (15.6) million at the end of the quarter.
Operating expenses and depreciations amounted to NOK -96.1 (-82.4) million in the first quarter. Most of the increase from last year is due to price increases for purchased external services as well as growth in personnel expenses. Operating expenses also include reimbursements to customers related to fraud of NOK -1.0 (-0.2) million.
Credit losses and loss provisions as of the first quarter amounted to NOK 0.2 (1.2) million in the retail market. A positive figure here is mainly due to reversals of historical loss provisions exceeding new losses. KLP Banken does not observe any significant increase in losses or loss provisions on residential mortgages and credit cards compared with the previous year. Furthermore, no losses related to public-sector lending have been recognized so far in 2026.
Lending and credits
KLP Banken manages lending on its own balance sheet as well as loans financed by KLP, totalling NOK 141 (130) billion. As of 31 March 2026, the KLP Banken Group’s customer loans on its own balance sheet amounted to NOK 53.4 (43.7) billion. The distribution between the retail market and public-sector loans was NOK 31.5 (24.3) billion and NOK 21.9 (19.4) billion, respectively.
Growth in outstanding residential mortgages in the first quarter amounted to NOK 2.5 (0.1) billion. New mortgage disbursements so far this year total NOK 4.3 (1.8) billion. The bank’s main target group for residential mortgages is members of KLP’s pension schemes.
Residential mortgages totalling NOK 2.3 (1.0) billion were sold from KLP Banken AS to the credit institution KLP Boligkreditt during the first quarter.
Outstanding utilised credit on credit cards has declined slightly during the first quarter; however, the number of active credit card customers and approved credit limits continues to show steady growth.
KLP Banken’s lending volume in the public-sector market has decreased by NOK -0.6 (0.7) billion since the previous year-end. Loans to public-sector borrowers managed on behalf of KLP increased by NOK 1.0 (-0.8) billion over the same period. New disbursements to public-sector borrowers in the first quarter amounted to NOK 2.7 (2.1) billion for KLP and KLP Banken Group combined.
Liquidity investments
Available liquidity is placed in other banks and in interest-bearing securities. The KLP Banken Group’s deposits with credit institutions amounted to NOK 1.7 (1.7) billion at the end of the quarter. Book value of interest-bearing securities measured at fair value was NOK 6.9 (7.2) billion.
Changes in the market value of interest-bearing securities generated a profit effect of NOK 9.0 (5.4) million in the first quarter.
Funding
The KLP Banken Group’s external funding consists of deposits and bonds. At the reporting date, deposits from individuals and corporates amounted to NOK 17.2 (16.8) billion. Deposit growth in the first quarter was NOK 0.4 (1.0) billion.
Debt incurred through the issuance of securities amounted to NOK 40.9 (32.3) billion. Of the securities debt, covered bonds (OMF) issued by KLP Kommunekreditt AS amounted to NOK 23.4 (21.0) billion, and by KLP Boligkreditt AS to NOK 15.6 (10.5) billion. All covered bond issuances have achieved an Aaa rating. Securities debt in KLP Banken AS amounted to NOK 1.9 (0.8) billion.
The income statement effect of realised and unrealised value changes from the repurchase of the Group’s own bond issues in the first quarter amounted to NOK -1.4 (-4.8) million.
Risk management and capital adequacy
The KLP Banken Group is exposed to various types of risk and has established a risk management framework to ensure that risks are identified, analysed, and managed through policies, limits, procedures, and guidelines.
The bank is to have a conservative risk profile, and earnings are primarily to be derived from deposit-taking and lending activities as well as liquidity management. This implies low market risk, and that interest rate risk arising from lending and deposit activities is reduced using derivatives.
The KLP Banken Group and its subsidiaries are required to maintain sound long-term funding in accordance with regulatory requirements, and frameworks have been established to ensure that this objective is met.
Credit risk in the bank is low, and lending is mainly limited to loans with municipal risk and loans secured by real estate. The bank’s liquidity is managed through placements in other banks and in securities that meet specified credit quality requirements in line with board-approved credit limits.
Core capital in accordance with capital adequacy rules at the end of the first quarter of 2026 amounted to NOK 3,602 (3,342) million. Core capital consists solely of Common Equity Tier 1 capital. Loans are risk-weighted in accordance with the capital requirements regulations. The KLP Banken Group’s total capital ratio and CET1 ratio were 23.6 (21.7) per cent at the reporting date. The applicable regulatory capital requirements, including buffer requirements, are 15.1 per cent for the CET1 ratio and 18.9 per cent for the total capital ratio. The leverage ratio was 5.7 (6.2) per cent. The requirement here is 3.0 per cent.
Outlook
The KLP Banken’s target group in the retail market is KLP’s membership base, consisting of employees of KLP’s owner customers and pensioners. This represents a significant share of the population and provides a strong foundation for further strengthening the KLP Banken Group’s position in the retail market. The KLP Banken Group will continue to work on developing attractive and relevant products and services for its members.
In 2025, KLP Banken AS entered into an agreement with the Norwegian Nurses Organisation (NSF) regarding banking services for NSF’s 130,000 members. The agreement, which entered into force on 1 January 2026, gives reason to expect continued strong growth in residential mortgages, as a share of NSF members is expected to refinance their mortgages with KLP Banken. KLP Banken AS has therefore strengthened its organisation to support further growth through increased staffing, the use of external consultants, and system improvements.
The KLP Banken Group’s target group, which mainly consists of public-sector employees and their households, is more protected than other groups from employment-related risk, as they are employed by municipalities and health enterprises. The KLP Banken Group therefore assumes that the risk of default and losses will remain limited also in the future. The bank also maintains strong growth ambitions for deposits, which are primarily to be achieved by recruiting more customers from its target group.
Household debt levels are subject to strict regulatory requirements for credit provision in the retail market through the mortgage lending regulations. The KLP Banken Group views this as a sound basis for the further development of banking products and services in the retail market. The KLP Banken Group will continue to apply conservative credit approval practices in line with regulatory requirements to maintain low risk in its loan portfolios, while also supporting customers who encounter financial difficulties by helping them find appropriate solutions.
The banking industry is at the forefront of technological development, and customer expectations for simple and digital solutions continue to increase. The KLP Banken Group aims to leverage proven technology to offer relevant, customer-friendly, and efficient services. This entails an ongoing need for IT investments to achieve the bank’s objectives of continued growth and profitability. Partly for this reason, KLP Banken decided in 2025 to join the Eika Banking Alliance. Technical conversion has not yet taken place, and the bank is still awaiting a conversion date from its current provider, Tieto Banktech (formerly Tietoevry).
Norwegian municipalities have developed a strong and comprehensive range of services for the population. Increased life expectancy, demographic trends, income developments, and climate risk suggest that a high level of investment in the public sector can also be expected in the coming years. In its annual budget survey, the Norwegian Association of Local and Regional Authorities (KS) indicates that the level of investment and new borrowing in 2026 is expected to remain at approximately the same level as last year. Demand for loans to projects contributing to climate adaptation is also likely to continue to increase in the years ahead.
KLP Kommunekreditt AS is the country’s only credit institution issuing bonds secured by loans to the public sector. The presence of KLP Kommunekreditt AS, together with KLP, in the public-sector lending market contributes to competition and thereby ensures that the public sector has stable access to long-term financing at favourable terms. In connection with the 2026 national budget, the Norwegian Parliament requested that the government assess whether loans to municipalities should have the same risk weighting as loans to the central government (0 percent weight). So far, the government has not acted on this request.
KLP Banken AS has a strong capital position and equity that meets all regulatory requirements. Combined with low credit risk in its lending activities, this provides a solid basis for achieving access to the best possible funding terms in the capital markets. This is an important prerequisite for offering favourable lending terms.
The KLP Banken Group is well positioned for further development and growth.

Fair value shall be a representative price based on what a corresponding asset or liability would have been traded for on the balance sheet date. A financial instrument is considered to be listed in an active market if the listed price is simply and regularly available from a stock market, dealer, broker, industry grouping, price setting service or regulatory authority, and these prices represent actual and regularly occurring transactions at arm’s length. If the market for the security is not active, or the security is not listed on a stock market or similar, valuation techniques are used to set fair value. These are based for example on information on recently completed transactions carried out on business terms and conditions, reference to trading in similar instruments and pricing using externally collected yield curves and yield spread curves. As far as possible the estimates are based on externally observable market data and to the leaste extent possible on company-specific information.
The different financial instruments are thus priced in the following way:
Fixed-income securities - government
Nordic Bond Pricing is used as a source for pricing Norwegian government bonds.
Fixed-income securities - other than government
Norwegian fixed-income securities are generally priced based on rates from Nordic Bond Pricing. Securities not covered by Nordic Bond Pricing are priced theoretically. The theoretical price should be based on the discounted value of the security's future cash flows. Discounting is done using a swap curve adjusted for credit spread and liquidity spread. The credit spread should, to the extent possible, be based on a comparable bond from the same issuer. Liquidity spread is determined at the discretion of the evaluator.
Financial derivatives
These transactions are valued based on the applicable swap curve at the time of valuation. Derivative contracts are to be used only to hedge balance amounts and to enable payments obligations to be met. Derivative contracts may be struck only with counterparties with high credit quality.
Shares (unlisted)
For liquid shares and units, the closing price on the balance sheet date is used as the basis for measurement at fair value. If the prices are not quoted, the last price traded is used. Illiquid shares are priced on the basis of the Oslo Stock Exchange’s index algorithm based on the last traded prices. If the pricing information is outdated, a derived valuation is produced from relevant stock indices or other similar securities. If this is also considered unsatisfactory, a discretionary valuation is made. This may be based on fundamental analysis, broker assessment, or adjustments for risk or liquidity considerations in relation to the price.
Fair value of loans to retail customers
The fair value through profit/loss is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows to present values. The discount rate is determined as the market rate, including a suitable risk margin. For loans measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the fair value is calculated as the recognised principal minus estimated loss provisions on loans classified in Stage 2 and 3 (see note 12 Loan losses provision).
Fair value of loans to Norwegian local administrations
The fair value of these loans is considered to be virtually the same as the book value, as the contract terms are constantly adjusted in line with market interest rates. The fair value of fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows by market interest rates including a suitable risk margin at the end of the reporting period. This is measured at Level 2 in accordance with the fair value hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Fair value of deposits
The fair value of floating rate deposits is taken to be approximately equal to the deposit amount including accrued interest. The fair value of fixed rate deposits is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows by market interest rates including a suitable risk margin. Discounting contractual cash flows by market interest rates including a suitable risk margin. This is measured at Level 2 in accordance with the fair value hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Fair value of loans to and receivables from credit institutions
All receivables from credit institutions (bank deposits) are at variable interest rates. The fair value of these is considered to be virtually the same as the book value, as the contract terms are continuously changed in step with change in market interest rates. This is measured at Level 2 in accordance with the fair value hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Liabilities created on issuance of securities
Fair value in this category is determined on the basis of internal valuation models based on external observable data. This is measured at Level 2 in accordance with the fair value hierarchy, cf. Note 6.

LEVEL 1: Instruments at this level obtain fair value from listed prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities to which the entity has access at the reporting date. Examples of instruments in Level 1 are stock market listed securities.
LEVEL 2: Instruments at this level obtain fair value from observable market data. This includes prices based on identical instruments, but where the instrument does not maintain a high enough trading frequency and is therefore not considered to be traded in an active market, as well as prices based on corresponding assets and price-leading indicators that can be confirmed from market information. Example instruments at Level 2 are fixed-income securities priced on the basis of interest rate paths.
LEVEL 3: Instruments at Level 3 contain non-observable market data or are traded in markets considered to be inactive. The price is based generally on discrete calculations where the actual fair value may deviate if the instrument were to be traded.
Note 5 discloses the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are recognized at amortized cost and according to the rules on hedge accounting. Financial assets measured at amortized cost and hedge accounting comprise lending to and due to credit institutions, Norwegian municipalities and retail customers. The stated fair value of these assets is determined on terms qualifying for level 2. Financial liabilities recognized at amortized cost and hedge accounting consist of debt securities issued and deposits. The stated fair value of these liabilities is determined by methods qualifying for level 2.
There have been no transfers between level 1 and level 2.
