Sweden's Finansinspektionen (FI) has launched an in-depth analysis to map how a selection of life and non-life insurance companies have integrated sustainability risks into corporate governance, with a focus on risk management. The findings are intended to strengthen FI’s supervisory understanding and support its dialogue with firms on these risks. The work builds on a mapping FI previously reported in its Sustainability Report 2024 and sits within FI’s 2026 supervisory priorities on sustainability risks linked to climate change. FI emphasises that the in-depth analysis is not a firm-specific compliance assessment and is not intended to underpin sanctions or other interventions, although the results may lead FI to open a formal investigation.
