– That we create value for our customers, is vital if we are to create value to Nordea and the shareholders. We are not satisfied with the current level of customer satisfaction and it is our highest priority to improve it.

Nordea will also become better at following the rules for banks.

He writes about the culture change that will take place in the bank:

– It is now a year ago we began work to transform our business and culture. We are simplifying our legal structure, we replace the kärnbankplattformen and invest in regelefterlevnadsfunktionerna. We will not reach all the way if we do not also change our culture. It is a step on the way towards the goal to gather around a strong culture, based on ethics and compliance. A part of this cultural change is to recruit experts in world-class, many of whom are non-nordic, for several important strategic positions. The overall goal is to continue to build the bank of our customers want us to be.
