As a large stock exchange listed company and an important participant in society, Storebrand is committed to building good relationships with its stakeholders, who include shareholders, corporate bodies, management, employees, customers, lenders, and society as a whole. Corporate governance plays a central role in this objective, and defines the legal and operational framework by which Storebrand directs and controls its activities in order to create value for its stakeholders.

In order to strengthen Storebrand's work on corporate governance further, an in-house Corporate Governance committee was established in 2006. The committee is responsible for ensuring good corporate governance practice across the Storebrand group.

In December 2004, a broadly based working group published a Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance. Storebrand has been actively involved in developing the Norwegian Code of Practice.

The Code of Practice takes into account international developments and other national codes, but is built on national considerations such as Norwegian legislation and practice. The Code of Practice is updated annually, most recently on 28 November 2006. The rules of Oslo Børs make it compulsory for listed companies to issue an annual statement of practice in accordance with the Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance.

Storebrand's principles for corporate governance correspond in all material respects with the Norwegian Code of Practice (CoP).
