Solvency position and sensitivities Q4 2022 Storebrand Group

Key takeaways

  • Large decrease in volatility adjustment reduces the solvency position
  • Risk management including increased reinsurance levels, reduced foreign currency exposure, and investments and balance sheet optimisations improve the solvency ratio

14 1The estimated Economic solvency position of Storebrand Group is calculated using the current Storebrand implementation of the Solvency II Standard model with the company's interpretation of the transition rules from the NFSA. 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.
