SEB Enskilda held on to the top ranking in Prospera's 2012 Nordic equity research house survey. It is the third year in a row that SEB Enskilda has led the annual rankings in the Nordics. SEB Enskilda also defended top spots this year in country-specific Prospera surveys in Sweden, Norway and Finland.

"It is highly encouraging to see that in a tough financial climate our clients attach a high value to the investment and research services SEB Enskilda is providing. Our investment in close and long-lasting client relationships is clearly bearing fruit," says Mika Koskinen, head of equity research at SEB Enskilda.

Prospera's rankings are based on some 200 interviews with fund managers, traders and analysts at leading Nordic institutions.
