The Annual General Meeting shall be held within six months of the end of the financial year, and in addition to the Annual General Meeting, extraordinary general meetings may be convened.

Notice of general meeting
In accordance with Industria Försäkringsaktiebolag’s articles of association, notice is made to the general meeting through advertising in Post- och Inrikes Tidningar and through publication on the company’s website. In addition, the notice in Svenska Dagbladet is advertised.
