Out of consideration for sustainability, finances and history, PFA chose to renovate the original building from 1983 instead of building a new one. The new domicile ensures employees, customers and business partners modern office facilities that allows for a varied working day with plenty of opportunity for concentration, knowledge sharing and physical activity. The completion of the main building was the first part of the renovation, and the remaining part of the building is expected ready at the beginning of 2021.

    PFA Holding Annual Report 2018 PFA Holding A/S Sundkrogsgade 4 2100 Copenhagen Denmark Tel.: (+45) 39 17 50 00 pfa.dk CVR No.: 22 43 80 18 PFA consolidates the ground- work for future returns During 2018, PFA continued expanding its holding of properties and alternative investments so that they now account for approximately 18.8 per cent of PFA’s total investment portfolio. These investments are key to stabilising the return when the market conditions are unfavourable and the return on equities and bonds is under pressure. 2018 was a good example of this as PFA’s properties and alternative investments contributed positively with approximately DKK 5.3 billion to the customers’ return contrary to the equity markets, which yielded a negative return. One of PFA’s largest alternative investments is an equity interest in the offshore wind farm Walney Extension. PFA’s investment in the offshore wind farm, which covers an area of 149 km2 and supplies power for more than 600,000 English homes, amounts to approximately DKK 3 billion. Another large investment is Danish Ship Finance, which PFA became co-owner of in 2016. See more examples of PFA’s alternative investments and properties in the illustrations in this report. The cover photo shows the offshore wind farm Walney Extension and is kindly lended by Ørsted A/S.

  • Betalingskortloven Konkurrenceforholdene På
    Betalingskortloven Konkurrenceforholdene på betalingskortmarkedet 2000 2 Forord Konkurrencestyrelsen offentliggør hermed en redegørelse om konkurrence- forholdene på betalingskortmarkedet. Redegørelsen er et led i opfølgningen på den ændring af betalingskortloven, der blev vedtaget i april 1999. Som foreskrevet i loven blev redaktionen af redegørelsen afsluttet 1. april, hvor redegørelsen blev fremsendt til erhvervsministeren og umiddelbart herefter til betalingskortpanelet. Dette panel, som består af de vigtigste inte- ressenter på markedet for betalingskort, har afgivet bemærkninger, der er indarbejdet. Ansvaret for redegørelsen er dog fortsat alene Konkurrencesty- relsens. Færdiggørelsesdatoen 1. april betyder, at redegørelsen ikke tager stilling til Finansrådets og PBS’ plan for ”Fremtidens Kortmarked”, som blev offent- liggjort den 1. maj 2000. Redegørelsen giver en oversigt over det danske betalingskortmarked, og brugen af betalingskort i Danmark sammenlignes med forholdene i 15 andre lande. Formålet med ændringen af betalingskortloven var at fremme e- handelen i Danmark. E-handelen har derfor en fremtrædende plads i redegø- relsen. I et særligt afsnit er der redegjort for Konkurrencestyrelsens indtil nu begrænsede praksis med styrelsens tilsyn på området. På baggrund af redegørelsen skal panelet inden 1. juni afgive en udtalelse til erhvervsministeren. Udtalelsen kan både vedrøre redegørelsen og forholde- ne på betalingskortmarkedet. Efter loven skal der inden november 2001 fremsættes et forslag til revision af betalingskortlovens
