Chair of the Supervisory Board, Jukka Pertola, will not seek reelection at the coming Annual General Meeting of Tryg A/S in March 2026. Deputy Chair, Steffen Kragh, is nominated as new Chair of the Supervisory Board, and Board member Benedicte Bakke Agerup is nominated as new Deputy Chair of the Supervisory Board.
After nine years on Tryg A/S’ Supervisory Board, the Chair, Jukka Pertola, has announced that he is not seeking reelection at the Annual General Meeting of Tryg A/S in March 2026. Jukka Pertola was elected to the Supervisory Board in 2017 and has since made a profound impact on the Group. In the same period, the Group has doubled its size measured on top and bottom line with multiple successful acquisitions contributing to ensure the Group’s unique position in Scandinavia. The Supervisory Board of Tryg also carried through a successful CEO transition in 2023.
”After almost a decade as Chair of the Supervisory Board of Tryg A/S, I am delighted to hand over the baton. I have been part of the Board through three strategy periods and have seen Tryg develop from being a primarily Danish insurance company to becoming a Scandinavian market leader delivering shareholder value through world-class insurance operations, creating safety for more than 6 million customers, and being an active voice in society.
Now, a little more than a year after the launch of the Group’s ambitious 2027 strategy, I can conclude that the strategy has had a particularly strong start and that Tryg is in a very strong place from both a managerial and financial point of view. As a result, the timing is right to hand over the baton to Deputy Chair of the Supervisory Board, Steffen Kragh,” says Jukka Pertola.
With this change, the Supervisory Board of Tryg A/S nominates Steffen
