Storebrand’s position as a leading player in the Nordic occupational pension market strengt- hened through 2011. In addition, several strategic and organisational adjustments were im- plemented in order to increase focus on the retail market. The reason for this initiative is the transition from defined benefit to defined contribution occupational pension schemes, where the individual employees have a greater involvement. Business relationships give the Group a strategic advantage in the relationships established with company employees. OUTLOOK Fusion of corporate and retail markets The shift from defined benefit to defined contribution occupational pension schemes has led to both risks and investment options being transferred from employer to employee. In addi- tion, the pensions reform will lead to lower future pension payments for many employees. In sum, this increases both the need and interest in pensions and private savings significantly.
