Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- For more than a century, mutual insurers have dominated the Swedish insurance market. Independent of the historical roots and traditions, companies that sell life and other (non-life) forms of insurance have chosen the mutual organizational form. We focus on two different mutual insurers—Folksam and Länsförsäkringar—in decoding their historical roots, governance and management structure. Our focus is on the differences and similarities with special attention to customer’s participation in governance. The chapter shows that it is indeed possible to organize successful hybrid organizations with longevity and that the state’s role in the process is vital but not always a precondition for successful development of hybrid firms. In addition, the chapter also shows that it is difficult to include customers/owners in the governance of these firms and that there exist many different options for creating such systems.

Omvandlingar : Försäkringsbolaget Skandia 1990-2016
- 2019
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- Skandia har stått i centrum för försäkringsbranschens utveckling sedan bolaget bildades 1855. Dessutom har bolaget omvandlat sig själv vid upprepade tillfällen inte minst under 1900-talets slut.Den här boken handlar främst om de senaste 30 åren i Skandias historia. En tid då omvandlingarna varit större än tidigare. Skandia gick in i 1990-talet som ett starkt inhemskt bolag med omfattande verksamhet på den nordiska marknaden och en bred närvaro internationellt. Under de följande decennierna genomgick Skandia flera grundläggande förändringar som omvandlade bolagets produkter, ägande, kundkrets och ekonomiska situation. Det är denna historia som författarna Mats Larsson och Mikael Lönnborg berättar, med utgångspunkt i ett omfattande och unikt arkivmaterial på Centrum för Näringslivshistoria och ett stort antal intervjuer med de personer som spelat en betydande roll i omvandlingarna.

The Making of the Swedish Life Insurance Market 1855-1914
- 2008
-
Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This licentiate thesis examines the development of the life insurance industry during the period 1855-1914. The aim with the study is to recognise dimensions not frequently addressed by previous research on the insurance industry, namely the impact of social dimensions, including the implicit and explicit economic importance of social movements and the diffusion of knowledge in society at large for the development of the life insurance industry. The study shows that income and price had limited importance in explaining the demand for life insurance before the 20th century and that this can be attributed to a lack of sufficient knowledge regarding financial issues and to a far too high access cost in acquiring a life insurance for a large part of society. The development of the life insurance industry must therefore be understood through improved knowledge both on the part of the life insurance companies and on part of the consumers. The licentiate further shows how diffusion of knowledge throughout society also was due to a diffusion of democratic ideas and the rise of social movements, movements that life insurance actors were a part of. These actions helped open up the financial market for the masses and probably also strengthened the trust towards the industry. It is however hard to dismiss the life insurance actors’ engagement in women’s movement as a cover-up for other disguised motives not so honourable, while a direct economic gain for the life insurance industry is hard to establish.
