The difference is that in an ordinary savings account, you put in taxed
money. In this type of account, your company can put in gross earnings,
have the capital gains being taxed at only 0.3% (ish) flat fee per year,
and then when you, the employee, withdraw it, it's taxed as retirement
income.

If you put in your taxed savings into a "kapitalförsäkring" you can
withdraw the money tax free, but the flat tax is higher, it's currently
0,888% for 2025.

What is taxed a 0.3%/year: The capital GAIN (interest) for the year, or
the accumulated capital value?

And does "retirement income" have a lower tax rate than "long term
capital gains"?
