Actuarial gains/losses resulting from changes in the actuarial assumptions for defined benefit pension plans are recognized to<br />
the extent that their accumulated amount exceeds the ‘corridor’, i.e. 10 percent of the higher of the obligation’s present<br />
value or the fair value of plan assets. The surplus/deficit outside the 10 percent corridor is recognized as income/expense over<br />
the expected average remaining service period, starting in the year after the actuarial gain or loss arose. Amortization of actuarial<br />
gains/losses that arose in 2007 will start in 2008.<br />
The actual return on plan assets regarding defined benefit plans was SEK 239 M (267) in 2007.<br />
There are no defined benefit plans with surpluses within the Group. Partly funded or unfunded pension plans are<br />
reported as provisions for pensions.<br />
