Storebrand Group Solvency position and sensitivities Q4 2024

Title and Subtitle only than six colors in your graph.

  • The solvency ratio was positively affected by increasing interest rates, regulatory assumptions and cash earnings in the quarter
  • The approved share buybacks of NOK 1.5bn will affect solvency negatively by approx. 5 percentage points in 2025

  1. The estimated Economic solvency position of Storebrand Group is calculated using the current Storebrand implementation of the Solvency II Standard model. Output is sensitive to changes in financial markets, development of reserves, changes in assumptions and improvements of the calculation framework in the economic capital model as well as changes in the Solvency II legislation and national interpretation of transition rules.
