Topdanmark and Danske Bank terminate co-operation on sales of non-life insurances

12 November 2018

Announcement No.: 15/2018



Effective as of today, Danske Bank has terminated its agreement with Topdanmark on non-life insurances. The co-operation shall cease effective of 1 January 2010.  Up until 1 January 2020, the parties will continue their working relation with the customers, who have taken out insurances through Danske Forsikring.

Topdanmark has been selling insurances through Danske Forsikring since 1 January 2000. This portfolio belongs to Topdanmark.

In 2018, Topdanmark’s sales for new customers via Danske Bank are expected to amount to approximately 10% of Topdanmark’s new sales on non-life insurances.

In Topdanmark’s interim report for Q1-Q3 2018, a positive premium growth and a combined ratio of 89-90 excluding run-off was assumed for 2019 within non-life insurances.  This assumption is still maintained.

Topdanmark has taken note of the termination. Topdanmark has extensive experience of distribution through financial institutions. As a consequence, Topdanmark will start identifying alternative distribution channels in replacement of the sales through Danske Bank.

Topdanmark (No_rec, TP: DKK) - Discontinuing coverage

Given Sampo’s pending acquisition of Topdanmark and its subsequent delisting, we have discontinued coverage. Our last published recommendation, target price, and estimates should no longer be relied upon.

Consolidating forces

A benign quarter without major weather events should lead to strong YOY improvement in earnings across the Nordic non-life sector, helped by favourable financial markets and the ongoing momentum from multiple rounds of premium price rises. Industry consolidation continued with the acquisition of Topdanmark by Sampo, set to be completed by 18 October. The transaction should lead to increased consolidation, promoting rational market behaviour in Denmark. Based on a growing discount to peers, we hi...

Topdanmark (Hold, TP: DKK371.00) - Continued repricing focus

PTP was 19% higher in Q2 YOY as rebounding financial markets helped offset a soft underwriting result. High YOY insurance revenue growth was offset by a sizeable number of large claims and continued high motor-claims frequencies, for which the company continues to raise prices. We have made limited 2025–2026e EPS changes, and reiterate our HOLD. We have raised our target price to DKK371(366), in line with the bid from Sampo.
