A stable, well-functioning financial market for allA stable, well-functioning financial market for allThe insurance barometer (2009:12)
The insurance barometer, at a total level, summarises the outcome of the insurance companies’ reporting to Finansinspektionen using the traffic light model and solvency for the last five six-month periods.
For the non-life insurance companies, the solvency level and the outcome using the traffic light model has not changed to any greater extent. The life insurance companies, on the other hand, were greatly affected by the financial crisis. The solvency level at many companies fell dramatically during the autumn of 2008 due to the stock exchange decline and depressed long-term interest rates. The trend turned around during the second quarter and per 30 June of this year, many companies were back at the same level as one year ago.
