“Länsförsäkringar AB reports very strong earnings after three quarters and we are pleased that the operating profit of SEK 1.3 billion is double compared with the year-earlier period. We see a healthy volume trend in all business areas. The bank’s market shares are steadily growing amid fierce competition. Growth in managed assets in Länsförsäkringar Fondliv (unit-linked life assurance) was also satisfactory and the most positive performances in non-life insurance were noted in Agria (pet insurance) and Business Area Health. In addition to our favourable earnings and strong growth, we are pleased to see that the Swedish Quality Index announced in October that we once again are the most popular bank among retail customers in Sweden,” says Sten Dunér, President of Länsförsäkringar AB.
