PART TWO
Appendix
SEB Trygg Liv
SEB Trygg Liv focuses on the sale and administration of unit-linked insurance
products and their equivalent for account of the traditional mutual life
insurance business. From an accounting point of view, its activities are
separate from traditional banking activities. SEB Trygg Liv's accounts are
presented in this Appendix according to generally accepted accounting standards
for the insurance companies.
SEB Trygg Liv's sales, that is, new premiums and additional payments under
existing insurance contracts, increased by SEK 1,594 M, or 22.0 per cent, to SEK
8,847 M (SEK 7,253 M). The share of insurance contracts with current premiums
was 17.6 per cent (26.4 per cent), which is a consequence of the fact that the
growth of the life insurance market during the year primarily consisted of
single premium endowment assurance, mostly unit-linked. Premium income (premiums
paid) rose by 20.2 per cent, to SEK 15,100 M (SEK 12,563 M). In total, assets
under management increased by 21.3 per cent during the twelve-month period,
whereas the corresponding increase for unit-linked insurance was 56.1 per cent.
Income increased by 13.8 per cent, primarily as a result of a higher premium
volume and favourable growth in assets under management, particularly within
unit-linked insurance. Operating costs and other costs increased by 3.6 per cent
(21.5 per cent). However, due to lower direct sales costs the deduction for
deferred acquisition costs declined to SEK 248 M (SEK 278 M), which resulted in
a net cost increase of 6.9 per cent (13.7 per cent).
The operating result improved by 35 per cent, to SEK - 116 M (SEK - 177 M).
The total result, which includes the change in surplus values, increased
by 141 per cent, to SEK 1,386 M (SEK 575 M). This improvement was mainly due to
strongly increased sales combined with a positive development on the capital
market, compared with 1998, which resulted in favourable growth in managed
funds.
The surplus value in life insurance operations is the present value of
expected future gains from signed insurance contracts. The surplus values
comprise unit-linked operations as well as commissioning agreements with
traditional life insurance companies.

Calculation of surplus values and changes in surplus values
Surplus values in life insurance operations are calculated on the basis of
assumptions regarding the future development of signed insurance contracts and a
risk-adjusted discount rate. The most important assumptions are the following:
Discount rate 11%
Return on capital, nominal assets 4%
Return on capital, real assets 8%
Cancellations of contracts 5%
Cancellations of current premiums 5%
Administrative expenses SEK 250/contract per year
Mortality rates According to trade experience
Surplus accounting
Deferred acquisition costs are capitalised in the accounts and depreciated
according to plan. The reported change in surplus values is therefore adjusted
by the net result of the capitalisation and depreciation during the period.
Change in surplus values 1,750
Deferred acquisition costs -450
Depreciation +211
-248
Reported change in surplus values 1,502

CLOSING BALANCE 31 December, 1999 4) 4,009
1) Sales defined as new contracts and extra premiums on existing contracts
2) The reported actual outcome of contracts signed can be put in relation to the
operative assumptions that were made. Thus, the value of the deviations can be
estimated. The most important components consist of growth in underlying assets,
increased sales, particularly in the form of extra premiums and extensions of
contracts as well as cancellations. However, the actual result of income and
administrative expenses is included in full in the operating result.
3) Before deduction for capitalised acquisition costs of SEK 248 M. See above.
4) Estimated surplus value according to the above is not included in the
published balance sheet.

amounted to SEK 3,887 billion (SEK 4,412 billion on 31 December 1998).
The book value of derivatives instruments forming part of trading operations is
identical with the market value.
Those deviations between actual and book values which are reported in the above
table are matched by opposite deviations between market and book values in the
part of the Group's operations which is the object of hedge accounting.

The soft loans of the Group are included among claims subject to interest
reduction.
The shortfall in income due to interest deferments was SEK 56 M (SEK 74
M), while unpaid interest on non-performing loans amounted to SEK 227 M
(SEK 327 M) - combined an improvement of 29 per cent compared with 1998.
On 31 December 1999, the Group had SEK 249 M (SEK 257 M) in non-performing
loans on which interest income was reported. These loans are not included
among the problem loans, since the corresponding collateral covers both
interest and principal.
