In 2015, we realised a return on equity after tax of 18.5%. The return on equity was affected by a very low investment income level and one-off costs related to the efficiency programme being implemented by Tryg in support of its financial targets for 2017. In 2015, we maintained a strong focus on enhancing customer experience, while at the same time optimising our processes and implementing a range of structural changes in support of our customer and financial targets for 2017. The year 2015 was also affected by increasing claims costs within some lines of business. Minor price adjustments and new claims measures will therefore be introduced in 2016 to improve profitability and prevent increasing claims inflation.
