SEB SWIFT Code: ESSESESS

The SWIFT/BIC code for SEB (Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken) is ESSESESS. ESSE identifies SEB, SE stands for Sweden, and SS is the Stockholm location code. This code applies to international wire transfers to SEB accounts in Sweden and across the Nordic-Baltic region.

SEB was founded in 1856 by André Oscar Wallenberg, making it one of the oldest banks in Scandinavia. It is the primary bank for many of Sweden's largest corporations and handles a significant share of Nordic corporate treasury operations.

SEB's Corporate and Institutional Focus

Unlike consumer-focused Swedish banks, SEB's international wire volume is heavily weighted toward corporate and institutional clients. The bank serves approximately 700 of Sweden's largest corporations and is a top-tier provider of foreign exchange, trade finance, and cash management services across the Nordic region.

SEB is also a primary dealer in Swedish government bonds and a major market maker in SEK. This institutional role means ESSESESS frequently appears as a correspondent bank code in Nordic-related SWIFT messages.

SEB Fee Schedule for International Wires

SEB charges SEK 75 to SEK 200 for incoming international wires, depending on the currency and account type. Outgoing international transfers cost SEK 100 to SEK 350. EUR transfers within SEPA are free for most account types.

SEB's internet banking platform supports same-day outgoing transfers in SEK, EUR, USD, GBP, NOK, and DKK. Other currencies may require an additional day for processing. The bank's FX desk offers spot and forward contracts for larger transfer amounts.
