SLIDE 4 Competitive occupational pensions A large percentage of the occupational pensions covering employees in Sweden are collective plans not open to competition. In contrast, the competitive components are large and important target groups for SEB Trygg Liv and comprise two market sectors: complementary pensions and solutions for high earners, known as ten-pointers. Complementary pensions are the occupational pension component where the employee can choose the investment. The various agreement areas SAF-LO, KAP-KL, ITPK and PA03 have such models. Solutions for ten-pointers are mainly for salaried employees who earn more than ten income base amounts. Provided their employer approves, these employees can in addition to complementary pensions choose insurance solutions for the premiums related to salaries above a certain amount. Pension foundations – another alternative Setting up a pension foundation can be an alternative for companies seeking a solution other than insurance for their employees’ occupational pensions. Interest in foundation solutions has increased over the years, mainly from large industrial groups. Companies looking for advice or assistance in setting up and administering pension foundations can turn to SEB Trygg Liv Pensions Service, the leader in the fi eld.

Investing premium pensions The national pension system comprises an income- based pension, which is managed by the state and indexed to economic growth, and a premium pension, which allows people to invest in one or more of nearly 700 funds offered by the Premium Pension Authority. SEB participates with some 20 funds. For younger people in particular, the difference in pension can be considerable depending on the funds selected, since the premium pension may correspond to up to one third of their future pension. Infl uencing occupational pensions A signifi cant portion of the future pension comes from
- ccupational pensions paid for by the employer. A
growing number of occupational pension agreements contain a component that allows employees to decide how it should be invested. The decision is whether to invest in unit linked insurance, unit linked insurance with a guaranteed amount or traditional insurance, and which company to manage the assets. It is important to understand which alternatives are available, since the difference can be substantial depending on the choices made. Save and invest Saving for fi nancial security is not only important for retirement. For parents or grandparents, saving for children and grandchildren is a way to give them a good start in life. Saving in the “kapitalspar” endowment insurance product can offer tax
- advantages. Another possibility for large investments

Bond, an international endowment insurance that provides certain benefi ts over investments in directly
Complementing public welfare Increased pressure on the social insurance system has brought the issue of public welfare to the forefront. Many people feel a need to complement with their
- wn private insurance. This includes disability
insurance to compensate for loss of income, health insurance to provide faster access to medical care, life insurance to compensate relatives when the insured person dies, or mortgage insurance to allow surviving family members to remain in their home. Offering for Swedish companies Questions facing small businesses include choosing a pension solution for the owners and employees and creating fi nancial protection in the event of illness. Employee absenteeism due to illness affects companies in various ways. To reduce such absences and related costs, SEB Trygg Liv offers the “Lönsam Hälsa” (profi table health) concept to prevent absences due to illness, as well as rehabilitation insurance and insurance providing compensation for medical care and treatment if illness has already occurred. Simpler administration It is a major advantage if administration of employees’ insurance solutions is simple to handle. SEB Trygg Liv’s occupational pension programme, TryggPlan, requires little effort on the part of the client company and provides considerable opportunities to add different types of insurance cover. The company reports personnel and salary changes to SEB Trygg Liv, which takes care of all the paperwork. For large companies there is a system that allows electronic reporting directly to us. SEB Trygg Liv has online services that allow even small companies to manage a large part of their administration through SEB’s
- website. This creates an even simpler process where
the insured’s details can be processed immediately.
