– The Länsförsäkringar AB Group began 2015 with a very strong quarter in terms of both earnings and growth. All business units reported earnings improvements and operating pro- fit amounted to SEK 487 M, up 66% compared with the yearearlier period. Profit for the total non-life insurance business doubled due to strong earnings in the pet-insurance business and improved investment income. Business volumes rose in the banking operations and growth remained stable. The bank’s net interest income increased despite low interest rates and operating profit and profitability strengthened. Deposits and net savings in funds weakened slightly compared with first quarter of 2014. Insurance capital in unit-linked life assurance continued to grow. A strong stock-market performance and highly valued classes of assets had a positive effect on first-quarter earnings says, Sten Dunér, President Länsförsäkringar AB.
