main lines: sickness insurance subject to notice, and sickness insurance not
subject to notice.
Sickness insurance subject to notice, mainly in combination with accident
insurance was granted by the accident insurance companies, Fylgia, Skandinavien,
Norden, Heimdall, Hansa, Securitas, and Gothia, as well as by a couple of
foreign companies.
Sickness insurance not subject to notice was granted by the Eir Sickness
Insurance Company.1 That Company undertook on its own account sickness insurance
solely, though, in addition to that, sickness insurance combined with life insurance
in any one of the following companies: Skandia, Svea, Thule, Skåne, Allmänna
Lifförsäkringsbolaget, Odén, Brage, or De Förenade.
Combined life and sickness insurance was transacted also by the Svenska
Lifförsäkringsbolaget and by the Lif- and Sjukförsäkringsbolaget Vasa.
Besides the federations named above, notably the Tarifföreningen and
the Svenska Lifförsäkringsbolagens Direktörsförening, the following
societies are engaged in promoting the development of Swedish life insurance
business: the Försäkringsföreningen (the Insurance Society) since 1875,
and the Svenska Lifförsäkringsbolagens öfverläkareförening (The Swedish
Life Insurance Companies’ Medical Union) and the Aktuarieföreningen
(Society of Actuaries).
The Försäkringsföreningen has its own press organ, namely the
’’Försäkringsföreningens Tidskrift", which has been issued since 1878. Other
press organs in the insurance branch are the "Gjallarhornet" and the
"As-surans".
1 The Valkyrian Insurance Company on the 1st October 1912 started sicknes insurance
business on essentially the same lines as the Eir Sickness Insurance Company.
