All short-term investments entail an insignificant risk of fluctuations in value and can readily be converted to cash funds. However, only those investments with a maximum tenure of three months are included in the item “Cash equivalents” in the balance sheet and in the cash-flow statement. Other short-term investments are reported as “Cash flow from investing activities”.

Cash equivalents that were not available to the Group amounted to SEK 21 m at the end of the period. Blocked funds primarily refer to cash equivalents utilized as hedging in clearing activities. The Group’s total hedges in interest-bearing assets relating to clearing activities amount to approximately SEK 750 m, the majority of which are investments with tenures exceeding three months.
