Life insurance: Weaker earnings form financial assets in life insurance

The results of the life insurance companies depend to a large extent of the development in the security market. Despite the growth on the Norwegian stock exchange, the net income form financial assets are reduced by NOK 3.5 billion. This is a 15 per cent reduction compared with the same period last year.

The earned premiums were NOK 40 billion in the first tree quarters of 2004, an increase of about 40 per cent compared with last year.

Profit before tax and allocations to customers is 8.1 billion. The revaluation reserve is NOK 80 million, this gives a reduction of the value-adjusted profit. The value-adjusted profits are NOK 8 billion for the tree first quarters in 2004, compared to NOK 11.5 billion for the same period in 2003.
