  • 1 Interest expense is related to Cash and balances held at central banks. Overnight deposit rates at central banks were negative for part of the year in the Eurozone, implying interest expense on assets. 

In the derivatives related to funding FMO usually receives fixed EUR/USD/other currency and pays floating rate (e.g., USD SOFR). As the USD, EUR, SEK and AUD interest rates increased in 2022 compared with 2021 (due to the interest rate increase by central banks) interest expense for these derivatives was significantly higher in 2022.
