The Swedish lender has endured a turbulent few months since it was linked to money laundering at Danske Bank, which has said that its Estonia branch was used to move 200 billion euros (£175 billion) of suspicious funds between 2007 and 2015.

With both its chairman and chief executive having left the bank, Swedbank's proposed new board members include former prime minister Goran Persson as chairman.

The bank is being investigated by Swedish, Baltic and U.S. authorities. It admitted in April to failings in combating money laundering and said an internal investigation was reviewing current and historic customer relationships through its Baltic operations.
