Year 2010 was characterized by exceptional weather conditions in most of the
countries where If operates: extreme winter, scorching summer riddled with
storms and heavy downpours, and in the fourth quarter weeks of premature but
abundant snowfall.
Another exceptional development in 2010 reflected in consolidated P&C insurance
result is the significant strengthening of Swedish krona.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, profit before taxes for P&C
insurance for the year 2010 rose 10 per cent to EUR 707 million (644) and
combined ratio was again on a stable level in 2010 at 92.8 per cent (92.1) being
clearly better than the long-term target of below 95 per cent.
Technical result was EUR 449 million (488), of which the Private business area
accounted for 53 per cent, Commercial 28 per cent, Industrial 15 per cent and
Baltic and Russia 3 per cent.
Insurance margin (technical result in relation to net premiums earned) decreased
from the previous year to 11.5 per cent (13.4). Return on equity (RoE) remained
good and was 39.8 per cent (53.2) while the fair value reserve increased to EUR
315 million (105).
In business area Private risk ratio increased to 68.9 per cent (68.0) affected
by the exceptional weather conditions. Helped by the improved cost ratio,
combined ratio increased slightly to 93.0 (92.5). Also in Commercial cost ratio
improved compared to last year but the weakened risk ratio of 69.8 per cent
(68.3) drove the combined ratio slightly up to 93.5 per cent (92.6).
In business area Industrial combined ratio improved to 90.6 per cent (90.7)
helped by the favorable development in nominal costs. Risk ratio was at previous
year's level at 71.9 percent (71.6). In Baltic and Russia both risk ratio and
combined ratio increased compared to previous year, and were 56.4 per cent
(55.7) and 93.4 per cent (91.7), respectively.
Risk ratio weakened due to extraordinary weather conditions during year 2010 in
all countries excluding Sweden, where despite the severe winter both risk ratio
and combined ratio improved to 70.2 per cent (72.4) and 93.3 per cent (95.2),
respectively. In Norway risk ratio increased to 69.6 per cent (68.8) but due to
improved cost ratio in all business areas, combined ratio was at previous year's
level at 92.1 per cent (92.0). Also in Finland cost ratio improved in all
business areas, but the increase in risk ratio to 67.0 per cent (64.0) lead to a
higher combined ratio of 90.4 per cent (88.5). In Denmark risk ratio increased
to 72.8 per cent (66.1) and combined ratio to 101.4 per cent (93.7).
Gross written premiums increased 8 per cent to EUR 4,189 million (3,888).
Adjusted for currency, premiums increased 1.3 per cent.
Cost ratio improved by 0.4 percentage points to 23.7 per cent compared to a year
earlier as a result of continuous efforts put on streamlining the operations.
The amount of total costs increased to EUR 1,009 million (939), mainly due to
the strengthening of the Swedish krona.
Other operating expenses increased EUR 25 million due to dissolving the
collective guarantee provision in the Finnish workers' compensation insurance.
Claims incurred increased to EUR 2,689 million (2,477) and risk ratio
deteriorated to 69.1 per cent (68.0), affected by the weather. EUR 113 million
(87) was released from technical reserves, which related to prior year claims.
Reserve ratio was 173 per cent (172) of net premiums written and 236 per cent
(240) of claims paid.
Investment market remained positive during the year and net income from
investments increased to EUR 487 million (394). As at 31 December 2010, total
investment assets amounted to EUR 11.7 billion (10.7) of which 85 per cent (89)
was invested in fixed income instruments and 14 per cent (11) in equities.
Investment return for 2010 mark-to-market was 7.4 per cent (12.4). Duration for
interest bearing assets was 1.7 years (2.5).
As at 31 December 2010 If P&C had a solvency ratio (solvency capital in relation
to net premiums written) of 79 per cent (77). Despite the EUR 540 million paid
to Sampo plc in dividends during 2010, solvency capital amounted to EUR 3,373
million (2,943) in comparison to the regulatory minimum capital requirement of
EUR 735 million.
On 1 January 2011 a new five-year cooperation agreement was announced between If
P&C and Volvo Cars regarding Volvia brand insurance. If has more than 443,000
Volvia-insurances in its portfolio, of which 400,000 in Sweden, which means that
40 percent of all Volvo cars in Sweden are insured by Volvia. The deal with
Volvo is worth approximately 2 billion Swedish krona in premiums earned for If
annually.

Sampo Group's life insurance operations continued their fast growth in 2010 with
premium income growing almost 40 per cent. Profitability was also good and
profit before taxes grew 17 per cent to EUR 142 million (121).
Net investment income, excluding income on unit-linked contracts, amounted to
EUR 312 million (270). Net income from unit-linked investments was EUR 333
million (359). During 2010 fair value reserve increased EUR 75 million amounting
to EUR 436 million. Return on equity (RoE) in life insurance was 36.2 per cent
(97.6).
Mandatum Life Group's investment assets, excluding the assets of EUR 3.1 billion
(2.4) covering unit-linked liabilities, amounted to EUR 6.0 billion (5.4) at
market values as at 31 December 2010. Fixed income represented 61 per cent (68),
equity 28 per cent (23), private equity 4 per cent (4), real estate 3 per cent
(3) and other assets 3 per cent (2) of the total assets. Return on investments
in 2010 was 11.1 per cent (16.8). At the end of December 2010 duration of fixed
income assets was 2.7 years (2.6).
Mandatum Life Group's solvency position is strong. Solvency margin grew to EUR
1,339 million (930) as at 31 December 2010. Mandatum Life's solvency ratio was
25.7 (18.6). Total technical reserves were EUR 7.5 billion (6.8). Unit-linked
reserves continued their strong growth and accounted for 3.1 billion (2.4). The
share of unit-linked reserves of total technical reserves increased to 41 per
cent (35).
Majority of Mandatum Life's traditional policies carry a guaranteed interest of
3.5 per cent. Individual policies sold in Finland before 1999 carry a guaranteed
interest of 4.5 per cent. The discount rate for these policies has been lowered
to 3.5 per cent and subsequently technical reserves have been supplemented with
EUR 86 million (95). In addition, EUR 61 million has been reserved to lower the
interest rate of all with-profit liabilities to 2.5 per cent in 2011 and to 3.0
per cent in 2012. This supplement decreases the minimum requirement for
investment yield to 2.5 per cent and 3.0 per cent for 2011 and 2012,
respectively. All in all, Mandatum Life has increased its technical reserves
with EUR 147 million due to low level of interest rates.
Life operation's expense ratio remained on previous year's level and was 112.1
per cent (111.0). This ratio does not take into account all fees intended to
cover the operating expenses. Assuming all fees were to be taken into account,
Mandatum Life Group's expense ratio would have been 90.1 per cent (91.8).
Mandatum Life does not defer acquisition costs.
Mandatum Life Group's premium income on own account exceeded for the first time
one billion euro and amounted to EUR 1,111 million (803). Premiums in the main
focus area of unit-linked insurance increased to EUR 843 million (551) and the
share of unit-linked premiums was 76 per cent (68) of total premiums. The good
sales performance was due to all sales channels working well. Particularly the
successful cooperation between the wealth management unit and the proprietary
corporate sales force produced excellent results.
A new name was adopted for the Baltic subsidiary in 2010. The company is now
called Mandatum Life Insurance Baltic SE. Premium income from the Baltic
countries grew by 42 per cent and amounted to EUR 60 million (42).
Mandatum Life's market share in its focus area, unit-linked business, rose to
28.2 per cent (27.8). The company's overall market share in Finland was 22.0 per
cent (24.8) and market share in the Baltic countries was 19 per cent (16).

on 2 February 2011.
2010 showed record-high total income, up 3 per cent compared to last year.
Operating profit increased 18 per cent, due to higher income and lower net loan
losses. Risk-adjusted profit decreased by 6 per cent compared to the same period
last year.
Net interest income decreased 2 per cent compared to last year as a result of
lower deposit income and higher funding costs. The combined negative effect is
more than EUR 400 million. This income drop was successfully compensated through
strong growth in both lending and deposits as well as higher lending margins.
Lending increased 11 per cent and deposit volumes 15 per cent. Corporate lending
margins were higher, while deposit margins were largely unchanged compared to
last year.
Net fee and commission income has recovered strongly and increased 27 per cent.
Asset management commission income is up 42 per cent driven by assets under
management, which are up 21 per cent in the last 12 months and a more attractive
product mix.
Net result from items at fair value decreased by 6 per cent compared to very
high levels last year. The customer driven capital markets operations continued
to be strong with increasing volumes. The income drop in Group Treasury and
Capital Markets unallocated income was approximately EUR 450 million and almost
compensated by higher income in the customer areas. Premium income in Life
&Pensions was at an all-time-high. Income under equity method was EUR 66 million
and other income was EUR 116 million.
Total expenses increased 7 per cent compared to last year. Staff costs increased
2 per cent. In local currencies, total expenses increased 2 per cent and staff
costs decreased 2 per cent. Excluding the adjustment of pension plans in Norway,
total expenses increased 3 per cent and staff costs were down 1 per cent in
local currencies.
Net loan losses decreased 41 per cent to EUR 879 million, compared to last year,
corresponding to a loan loss ratio of 31 basis points (56 basis points). Net
profit increased 15 per cent to EUR 2,663 million, due to lower net loan losses.
Risk-adjusted profit decreased 6 per cent compared to last year to EUR 2,622
million, mainly due to the exceptionally strong results in Treasury and Markets
in 2009.
Activities related to the Group initiatives launched in early 2010 are on track
in all areas. In 2010, the initiatives have generated more than EUR 300 million
in additional income, i.e. above the target for the year. The efficiency gains
amounted to approximately EUR 70 million, in line with earlier expectations.
During the fourth quarter, total investments amounted to EUR 77 million, of
which EUR 22 million were accounted for as expenses in the income statement. In
the full year 2010, total investments amounted to approximately EUR 200 million,
of which EUR 74 million were accounted for as expenses in the income statement.
The investments are expected to be somewhat higher in 2011.

Management incentive schemes
On 8 June 2010 Sampo's Board approved a Compensation Code which applies to all
Group companies. The Boards of these companies have adopted company-level
policies based on the Code. The Code lays down the principles for e.g.
management incentives and can be viewed at www.sampo.com/compensation .
The variable compensation in Sampo Group is divided into short term and long
term compensation. The short term compensation is based on annual performance
whilst the long term compensation is carried out through the management
incentive schemes. For the short term variable compensation systems decided
after 1 January 2011, at least 50.1 per cent of significant pay-outs will be
deferred for at least three years. In Sweden different national rules are
applied and at least 60 per cent of pay-out for persons in risk-taking positions
will be deferred.
The management incentive schemes of Sampo Group were in 2010 of two types; long-
term management incentive schemes based on share appreciation rights and one
share-based incentive scheme.
The outcome of the long-term management incentive schemes is determined by
Sampo's share-price development over a period of approximately three years
starting from the issue of the respective program. The programs are subject to
thresholds on share price development and company profitability, as well as
ceilings for maximum bonuses. Furthermore, the programs are subject to rules
requiring part of the paid bonus to be used to acquire Sampo shares, which must
in turn be held for a specified period of time.
In 2006, Sampo's Annual General Meeting decided on a share-based incentive
scheme for the Executive Management belonging to the Group Executive Committee.
Under the program, the participants are granted the right to receive up to a
pre-determined number of Sampo shares, if Sampo's share price has outperformed a
predefined threshold value and insurance margin targets have been exceeded. The
reward will be paid in Sampo shares, in cash or a combination thereof.
Furthermore, the programs are subject to lock-up on Sampo shares received. The
scheme ended during 2010.
In 2010 EUR 10 million (0) was paid out based on the long-term management
incentive schemes and EUR 4 million (2) was paid out based on the share-based
incentive scheme.
The terms of all incentive schemes are available on Sampo's website at
www.sampo.com/compensation.

year, Sampo plc didn't hold any of its own A shares. Neither did the other Group

With Nordea Bank AB (publ) as its associated company as of 31 December 2009
Sampo Group became a financial and insurance conglomerate according to the Act
on the Supervision of Financial and Insurance Conglomerates (2004/699).
Group solvency has in 2010 been calculated according to Chapter 3 of the Act on
the Supervision of Financial and Insurance Conglomerates (2004/699). The Act is

The Group's solvency ratio (own funds in relation to minimum requirements for
own funds) was 167.1 per cent (158.3) as at 31 December 2010. The part of
Nordea's capital requirement corresponding to Sampo's holding in Nordea is taken
into account in the Group's capital requirement.
In Sampo Group solvency is assessed internally by comparing the capital required
to the capital available. Capital requirement assessment is based on an economic
capital framework, in which Group companies quantify the amount of capital
required for measurable risks over a one year time horizon at 99.5 per cent's
confidence level. In addition to economic capital companies are assessing their
capital need related to non-measurable risks like risks in business environment.
Capital available or Adjusted Solvency Capital include regulatory capital and in
addition other loss absorbing items like the effect of discounting technical
reserves and other reserves excluded from regulatory capital.
The economic capital tied up in Group's operations on 31 December 2010 was EUR
4,281 million (3,783) and adjusted solvency capital was EUR 8,521 million
(7,077).
Events after the end of the reporting year
Sampo plc increased its stake in Nordea Bank AB (publ) with 0.7 percentage
points by buying 30 million shares in an auction organized by the Swedish state
on 4 February 2011. SEK 2,235 million was paid for the shares. After the
purchase, Sampo holds 860,440,497 Nordea shares corresponding to 21.3 per cent
of all shares in Nordea.
Outlook for 2011
Growth in the global economy is expected to pick up momentum and deleveraging to
continue as markets prove their resilience and adaptiveness. The European debt
crisis, if properly managed, is expected to abate gradually. All in all the
economic landscape in 2011 is expected to be fairly benign.
Sampo Group is expected to report a good result for 2011. P&C and life insurance
operations are expected to report good and stable results and the contribution
to profit of associated company Nordea Bank is anticipated to remain strong. The
continuing rise of short term interest rates will also further strengthen Sampo
Group's profits.
If P&C is expected to reach its long-term combined ratio target of below 95 per
cent in 2011. Profit is expected to remain very good.
Nordea's contribution to the Group's profit is expected to be significant.
Mandatum Life's profitability is expected to remain good although it is highly
dependent on capital market developments.
Dividend proposal
On 11 February 2010 the Board adopted a new dividend policy. According to the
policy total annual dividends paid will be higher than 50 per cent of Group's
net profit for the year (excluding extraordinary items). In addition share buy-
backs can be used to complement the cash dividend.
The parent company's distributable capital and reserves totaled EUR
6,597,907,788.86, of which profit for the financial year was EUR 710,467,413.51.
The Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of EUR 1.15 per
share to company's 561,282,390 shares. The dividends to be paid are EUR
645,474,748.50 in total. Rest of funds are left in the equity capital.
The dividend will be paid to shareholders registered in the Register of
Shareholders held by Euroclear Finland Ltd as at the record date of 4 April
2011. The Board proposes that the dividend be paid on 28 April 2011.
No significant changes have taken place in the company's financial position
since the end of the financial year. The company's liquidity position is good
and in the view of the Board, the proposed distribution does not jeopardize the
company's ability to fulfill its obligations.

statement. The result analysis of P&C insurance is presented in note 13.
In calculating the per share key figures, the number of shares used at the
balance sheet date and as the average number of shares was 561,282,390.
The valuation differences on investment property have been taken into account in
calculating the return on assets, return on equity, equity/assets ratio and net
asset value per share. The tax component includes the tax corresponding to the
result for the period, and the deferred tax liability related to valuation
differences on investment property.
The total comprehensive income has been used in the calculation of the return on
assets and return on equity.
The key figures for the insurance business have been calculated in accordance
with the decree issued by the Ministry of Finance and the specifying regulations
and instructions of the Finance Supervisory Authority (former Insurance
Supervisory Authority).

NOTES
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Sampo Group's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the EU. The
interim financial statements are presented in accordance with IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting. In preparing the interim financial statements, the same
accounting policies and methods of computation are applied as in the financial
statements for 2009.
Sampo adopted various new or revised standards and interpretations at the
beginning of the year 2010. These standards and interpretations are explained in
Sampos accounting policies for the financial year 2009. The financial statements
will be available on Sampo's website at www.sampo.com/annualreport.
The most significant of the adopted standards is the revised IFRS 3 Business
combinations. The standard includes various significant changes regarding the
accounting treatment of business combinations by allowing the company to measure
the non-controlling interest at fair value instead of the proportionate interest
in the acquiree's net assets. The choice affects the amounts of recognised
goodwill and non-controlling interest.
