STOREBRAND ASA: Capital Markets Day today at 14:00 CET
STRATEGY 2021-2023: LEADING THE WAY IN SUSTAINABLE VALUE CREATION
Storebrand is hosting a virtual Capital Markets Day today at 14:00 CET, outlining the Group strategic plan for 2021-2023 'Leading the Way in Sustainable Value Creation'. The presentation includes dedicated sessions on occupational pensions, asset management, retail and cash and capital.
– Storebrand has followed an active and consistent strategy with a proven track record of shifting the business mix towards capital light savings and insurance products, replacing legacy guaranteed business. The Storebrand of the future will be a market leader in occupational pensions, a Nordic powerhouse in asset management, combined with a broad retail offering driven by insurance growth. Our ambition is to deliver NOK 4 billion in Group profit (before amortisation and tax) in 2023. We reaffirm our commitment to create a compelling combination of self-funded growth and increasing capital return for our shareholders. Earnings growth will support a growing dividend. In addition, the run-off of the guaranteed business is expected to return around NOK 10 bn of capital to shareholders until 2030, says Odd Arild Grefstad, Chief Executive Officer of Storebrand.
– This is not the time to be on the wrong side of history as transition risk is increasing for financial investments. We believe that a robust and well-proven sustainable framework is crucial to navigate through transition risk into a low emission society. We will demonstrate how Storebrand adds value beyond return for customers and shareholders by uncompromisingly setting the standard, and we aim to be the world's most sustainable financial company, says Odd Arild Grefstad, Chief Executive Officer of Storebrand.
The presentations will last 90 min and will be followed by a Q&A session.
