COPENHAGEN Nov 10 (Reuters) - Danish insurer TrygVesta (TRYG.CO) aims to increase premiums on home insurance policies in Denmark by 10 percent, the company's chief executive said on Tuesday.

Chief Executive Stine Bosse also said that there had been an increase in claims related to the recession and organised crime.

Bosse's remarks came after TrygVesta reported a smaller-than-forecast rise in pretax profits for the third quarter but raised its guidance for full-year 2009 earnings.
