The regulations and general guidelines supplement the Swedish Pensions Agency's Insurance Activities in the Premium Pension System Act (2017:230). They contain in part rules on technical provisions. The regulations and general guidelines also clarify what is meant by insight and experience for the actuaries monitoring the technical investigations and calculations. They also contain provisions regarding technical guidelines, calculation bases, investment guidelines and supervisory reporting.
One objective of the new rules is to contribute to modern regulation that has been adapted to the EU's insurance and occupational retirement pension directive.
The regulations enter into force on 1 March 2022.
