As previously announced, Storebrand Livsforsikring AS has appealed to the Tax Appeals Committee a decision made by The Norwegian Tax Administration (TNTA) regarding the uncertain tax position for the income year 2015 claiming changes should be made in the tax returns for Storebrand Livsforsikring AS.
