Equity-based compensation
Long-term equity-based remuneration is a means to attract and retain staff with key competences. It also builds long-term commitment to SEB and creates an incentive for the employees to become shareholders of SEB.
The equity-based programmes provide scope for risk adjustment for both current and future risks, and thus the final outcome can subsequently be reduced in part or in full, in compliance with the rules of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority.
The 2026 Annual General Meeting approved three long-term equity programmes for 2026:
- SEB All Employee Programme 2026 (AEP) for all employees in most of the countries where SEB operates,
- SEB Share Deferral Programme 2026 (SDP) for the Group Executive Committee (GEC), certain other senior managers and key employees, and
- SEB Restricted Share Programme 202 (RSP) for some employees in certain business units.
