Credit-linked notes

Additional yield from selected company risk

Nordea’s credit-linked notes (CLNs) are typically variable-rate bonds with a maturity of 5-7 years. The notes correspond to an investment in the international corporate bond markets. They provide an opportunity to achieve higher yield compared to traditional corporate bonds and fixed-income investments through moderately higher credit risk. The yield typically consists of a quarterly payable index bonus based on the 3-month Euribor and additional yield depending on the risk level.

Credit-linked notes are suitable choice if you want to have a diversified fixed-income portfolio in a cost-effective manner and appreciate regular income. They are suitable as a long-term investment to complement other bonds.
