Table: Nordnet’s total trades on all exchanges and market places for all
customers, and average number of trades per day. Average number of trades per
day is calculated as total trades divided by the number of days the Swedish
exchanges are open. Accounts, customers, net savings, savings capital and
lending are based on preliminary data.

- March ended around zero on the Nordic stock exchanges. The world economy is in
an uncertain situation with signs of both strength and weakness. During the
month, the ECB announced expanded stimulus. This type of action usually means
that the stock market reacts positively, but the question is how effective these
measures are in the light of the recent failed attempts to boost the economy,
says Johan Tidestad, CCO of Nordnet.

- The high market activity that we have seen the first two months of the year,
slowed down in March. The number of trades among our customers decreased by 18
percent compared to previous month, but is 10 percent higher than in March last
year. Net savings is negative due to the previously announced reduction in
cooperation with the partner Söderberg & Partners on the Swedish market. Of
their clients’ capital, SEK 2.2 billion was transferred from Nordnet during the
month. A total of SEK 9.5 billion related to Söderberg & Partners has been
transferred from Nordnet. The volume in both personal loans and margin lending
increased slightly compared with the previous month, says Johan Tidestad.
