Nordea's Q2 was the 10th consecutive quarter in which the bank's earnings level continued to improve and the Q2 result was also stronger than market expectations. Although we expect Nordea's earnings level to be close to its peak, we forecast profitability to remain strong in the coming years (2024-2026e: ROE ~15 %). In our view, the company is still exceptionally cheaply priced and thus the expected return looks attractive.
