Our Story

How Swedish Insurance Guide came to be

Swedish Insurance Guide was founded in 2020 by Erik Lundgren after his own frustrating experience trying to help international friends navigate Sweden's insurance landscape. As a veteran of the insurance industry, Erik recognized a significant gap in clear, accessible information about Swedish insurance in multiple languages.

What began as a simple blog quickly evolved into a comprehensive resource as other insurance professionals joined the team, each bringing specialized expertise in different insurance categories. We soon expanded beyond basic explanations to include in-depth guides, comparison tools, and expert analysis.

Today, Swedish Insurance Guide serves thousands of readers monthly, helping both newcomers to Sweden and locals make more informed insurance decisions. We remain committed to our founding principle: that everyone deserves clear, reliable information about insurance protection, regardless of their background or language skills.

While we've grown significantly since our founding, we maintain our independence and consumer-first approach. We don't sell insurance or receive commissions—our only goal is to provide the best possible guidance to our readers.

As a British expat new to Sweden, I was completely lost when it came to understanding the insurance requirements here. Swedish Insurance Guide's clear explanations helped me find the right coverage for my apartment and car without overpaying.

Even as a Swedish native, I found the articles on bostadsrättstillägg incredibly helpful. The comparison between different insurers saved me almost 2,000 SEK annually when I moved to my new apartment.

The guide on winter driving insurance considerations was invaluable for our first Swedish winter. Without it, we wouldn't have known about the specific coverage we needed for our northern vacation home.
