Varma’s result for January–September 2022: Accelerated inflation and interest rate hikes caused market fluctuations – despite negative investment returns, many asset classes yielded positive returns

Accelerated inflation and rising interest rates were reflected in Varma’s January–September investment performance. In spite of the strong stock price reactions, almost half of Varma’s investments generated positive returns.

The return on investments in January–September was -4.9 (13.5) per cent. The value of Varma’s investments was EUR 56.4 (59.0 on 1 Jan) billion.

Varma’s solvency ratio was EUR 133.0 (139.4 on 1 Jan) per cent, and solvency capital was 1.9 times (2.0 on 1 Jan) the solvency limit.

Strong solvency upholds confidence in pension provision. Better investment returns mitigate the pressure to increase pension contributions. Varma’s strong solvency benefits our clients through lower insurance contributions.

In good investment years, investment returns are used to increase the solvency capital, while in lean investment years, the solvency capital shrinks. Good solvency enables Varma to aim for higher returns by making higher-risk investments. As a rule of thumb, one percentage point more in investment returns in the long term means a two-percentage-point drop in pension contributions.
