In 1989, EFG Bank created the market for structured financial investments in Sweden, by introducing the first equity linked bond. With regards to our financial expertise, we have been able to offer professional and efficient asset management during the past 15 years to our institutional clients, tailored for their specific requirements regarding risk and return. Since the foundation of EFG, a total amount of USD 5 billion has been invested by more than 600 of Sweden's largest institutions. During 2001, we became a part of EFG Group, Switzerland's fifth largest bank group with USD 65 billion under management and 14.500 employees. The merger has combined our thorough knowledge within structured financial investments with EFG's many years of experience within Swiss banking traditions and a global network. EFG Bank has continued to lead the development within the area and is a leading player within modern portfolio management and structured placements, making us a dominant player within the institutional segment on the Swedish market. After having received a Swedish banking license in 2003, we have maintained our focus on institutional clients and extended our range of products to include various banking products. Further, we have strengthened our capital platform and become a fully integrated part of EFG Group. The difference for our clients is that we now can meet their needs and requirements more sufficiently. We are 50 employees in the Nordic countries with offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and Helsinki.
