SWEDBANK (SWEDa.ST)

Nordic banks should merge in order to meet the twin threats of growing competition and takeovers by larger European players, Swedbank Chairman Carl Eric Stalberg said in an interview with business daily Dagens Industri.

"In five to ten years we won't have four large banks in Sweden," he was quoted as saying.

"The consolidation in the international banking market will continue. If the alternative is that any large European bank can buy one of the large Nordic banks for the earnings of a single quarter, then it is better to merge and create a larger unit in the Nordic region and in Sweden."
