The Norwegian Corporate Governance Board (NUES)
The Norwegian Corporate Governance Board (NUES) yearly awards a prize for the best corporate governance report in an annual report. Storebrand won the award in 2006.
The Norwegian Code of Practice takes into account international developments and other national codes, but is built on national considerations such as Norwegian legislation and practice. The purpose of the Code of Practice is to clarify the respective roles of shareholders, board of directors and executive officers beyond the requirements of the legislation. Oslo Børs stipulates that companies listed on Oslo Børs must annually publish a statement on the company's principles for corporate governance in accordance with the Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance.
Compliance
The topic of corporate governance is subject to annual reviews and discussions by the Board of Directors, among other things, the group's governance documents are reviewed and revised annually. Storebrand's principles for corporate governance correspond with the Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance, and there are no deviations. For the full Code of Practice, see www.nues.no (in Norwegian).
