SAMPO PLC               STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE      13 August 2008, at 9.30am  


SAMPO GROUP´S RESULTS FOR JANUARY - JUNE 2008                                   

Strong solvency smoothes the ride                                               

Sampo Group's earnings per share for January-June 2008 amounted to EUR 0.60     
(0.72). The comparison figure does not contain the sales gain from the Sampo    
Bank transaction closed on 1 February 2007. Earnings per share including the    
sales gain were EUR 5.66. Earnings per share including the change in the fair   
value reserve decreased to EUR -0.90 per share (0.74). Profit before taxes in   
January-June 2008 amounted to EUR 422 million (559). Net asset value per share  
was EUR 11.36 (13.49).                                                          

- Profit before taxes in P&C insurance was EUR 182 million (311). Insurance     
technical result remained stable and combined ratio was 92.4 per cent (92.0).   
Investment result was disappointing because of weak fixed income and equity     
markets. The operating environment for P&C insurance continues to look          
favourable.                                                                     

- Profit before taxes in life insurance amounted to EUR 91 million (187).       
Sluggish sales continued due to weak capital market development and Sampo Bank's
poor sales performance.                                                         

- Profit before taxes for the segment ‘Holding' rose to EUR 148 million (61)    
supported by EUR 130 million in dividends from Nordea.

P&C insurance operations' profit before taxes for the first half of year 2008   
amounted to EUR 182 million (311). Investment result was clearly weaker than in 
the comparison period. The insurance technical result improved further to EUR   
261 million (244). Insurance margin - technical result in relation to net       
premiums earned - improved and was 13.5 per cent (13.0). Combined ratio remained
stable and was 92.4 per cent (92.0). Annualised RoE was below the long-term     
target of 17.5 per cent due to weak investment result and amounted to -4.8 per  
cent (21.7). Fair value reserve decreased to EUR -180 million (0).              

Business area Private accounted for 55 per cent, Commercial for 27 per cent,    
Industrial for 10 per cent and Baltic and Russia for 6 per cent of the technical
result. EUR 61 million was released from technical reserves relating to prior   
year claims (39).                                                               

In business area Private the combined ratio stayed at a good level at 91.4 per  
cent (91.1). In Commercial the combined ratio increased to 94.1 per cent (93.1) 
and in business area Industrial to 96.8 per cent (95.2) due to a total of EUR 55
million higher than normalized large claims. Technical result in business area  
Baltic and Russia improved significantly from the previous year's first half.   
The combined ratio improved to 83.0 per cent (90.8) supported by positive large 
claims outcome and favourable frequency development.                            

In Finland the combined ratio improved further to 86.8 per cent (87.6). In      
Sweden the combined ratio deteriorated due to a worse large claims outcome and  
was 93.4 per cent (88.4) and in Norway the combined ratio rose to 95.2 per cent 
(91.2). In Denmark the combined ratio improved from the comparison period to    
95.9 per cent (127.2) due to a normalized large claim situation compared to     
previous year.                                                                  

Gross premiums written increased to EUR 2,550 million (2,483). The premium      
growth was strongest in the business area Baltic and Russia where premiums grew 
12.9 per cent compared to previous year and in business area Private with 4.5   
per cent growth.                                                                

Total costs amounted to EUR 465 million (460). Cost efficiency improved further 
in all business areas and the cost ratio decreased to 23.5 per cent (23.8).     

Total investment assets of If amounted to EUR 10.1 billion (10.3) on 30 June    
2008. Of the assets 92 per cent was invested in fixed income instruments (89), 7
per cent in equity (10) and 1 per cent in other assets (1). Net investment      
income for the first six months of 2008 decreased to EUR 52 million (180),      
largely due to forward contracts which were entered into in order to increase   
the duration of fixed income portfolio. The return on investments for the first 
six months of 2008 was -1.6 per cent at market values (2.0). At the end of June 
the duration for interest-bearing assets was 3.5 years (2.8).                   

If's capital position continued to be strong in the second quarter. Solvency    
capital amounted to EUR 2,591 million on 30 June 2008 (2,681). The solvency     
ratio - solvency capital in relation to net premiums written - was 67 per cent  
(71). If's reserve ratios decreased somewhat from the year-end and were 167 per 
cent (170) of net premiums written and 247 per cent of claims paid (261).       

The cooperation agreement between If P&C and SOK, the Finnish central           
organization of the S Group, came into force starting from the beginning of June
2008. If P&C and SOK agreed on the cooperation in October 2007. Under the       
agreement, If's customers will be eligible for the S Group's customer bonus for 
P&C insurance policies offered to households by If. The agreement is long-term  
and significant in scope.

Profit before taxes in life insurance for the first half of 2008 was EUR 91     
million (187). Net investment income, excluding income on unit-linked contracts,
amounted to EUR 193 million (291). Net investment income from unit-linked       
investments was EUR -177 million (116). The fair value reserve decreased EUR 189
million from the beginning of the year and was EUR 101 million on 30 June 2008.

Sampo Life Group's investment assets, excluding the assets of EUR 1.9 billion   
(2.1) covering unit-linked liabilities, amounted to EUR 5.2 billion (5.7) at    
market values on 30 June 2008. Fixed income covered 74 per cent (73), equity 23 
per cent (25) and real estate 3 per cent (3) of the total assets. Equity

After the sale of Sampo Bank in early 2007, Sampo Life has insourced certain    
activities previously performed by the Bank. This together with the investments 
in the proprietary sales organization, have led to an increase in Sampo Life    
Group's expense ratio to 117 per cent (110).

million (846) on 30 June 2008. Solvency ratio decreased to 13.5 per cent (16.5).
Total technical reserves amounted to EUR 6.5 billion (6.7), from which          
unit-linked reserves accounted for EUR 1.9 billion (2.1). The share of          
unit-linked reserves of total technical reserves was 30 per cent (31).          

In the first half of 2008 Sampo Life Group's premium income on own account      
amounted to EUR 233 million (310). Premiums in the focus area, unit-linked      
insurance, decreased to EUR 149 million (213) and the share of unit-linked      
premiums was 62 per cent of total premiums (68).                                

Difficult capital market conditions and Sampo Bank's problems were reflected in 
the sales performance. Particularly endowment policy sales suffered. Sampo      
Bank's problems are expected to continue to distract the sales during the third 
quarter of 2008. Proprietary sales channels performed well, particularly in     
selling risk and corporate policies.                                            

Sampo Life's market share in unit-linked insurance in Finland decreased to 20.1 
per cent (22.2). Sampo Life's overall market share measured by premium income   
was 16.0 per cent (19.2).                                                       

Uncertain capital market conditions were also reflected in the life insurance   
markets of Baltic countries. Sampo Life Group's premium income from the region  
decreased by 28 per cent to EUR 20 million (28). Market share data for January -
June 2008 is not yet available.

Developments in the second quarter of 2008                                      

Changes in Group structure                                                      

Sampo's P&C insurance subsidiary If signed in March 2008 an agreement to acquire
SOAO Region, a Russian insurance company. SOAO Region's main focus is motor     
insurance with approximately EUR 23.7 million of premium income. The acquisition
was completed on 5 June 2008.                                                   

On 10 June 2008 If P&C Insurance announced a plan to combine its subsidiaries   
operating in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania into one legal entity. The           
rearrangement will simplify and strengthen the structure of the Baltic property 
and casualty insurance operations and will improve efficiency. AS If Eesti      
Kindlustus, operating in Estonia, UAB If Draudimas, operating in Lithuania, and 
AAS If Latvia will be merged into one company to be domiciled in Tallinn,       
Estonia. The transactions are conditional on the receipt of necessary official  
permits by the authorities of the Baltic countries. The plan is to complete the 
transactions in first quarter of 2009.                                          

Administration                                                                  

The Annual General Meeting of Sampo plc held on 15 April 2008 adopted the       
financial accounts for 2007 and discharged the Board of Directors and the Group 
CEO and President from liability for the financial year. Ernst & Young Oy was   
elected as Auditor.                                                             

The AGM re-elected Tom Berglund, Anne Brunila, Georg Ehrnrooth, Jukka           
Pekkarinen, Christoffer Taxell, Matti Vuoria and Björn Wahlroos to the Board of 
Directors. Lýdur Gudmundsson and Eira Palin-Lehtinen were elected as new Board  
members. Jussi Pesonen left the Board of Directors. At its organisational       
meeting, the Board elected Georg Ehrnrooth as Chairman and Matti Vuoria as Vice 
Chairman.                                                                       

The AGM decided to pay the following fees to the members of the Board of        
Directors until the close of the AGM of 2009: the Chairman of the Board will be 
paid EUR 160,000 per year, the Vice Chairman EUR 100,000 per year and the other 
members EUR 80,000 per year. An amount equivalent to 30 per cent of the annual  
fee will be paid in Sampo plc A shares. Board members employed by the company   
will not be paid a separate fee for Board work.                                 

Chairman of the Board, Georg Ehrnrooth announced at the AGM that he will not    
stand as candidate for Sampo's Board of Directors at the AGM of 2009. Ehrnrooth,
who has been a member of Sampo's Board of Directors since 1992 and Chairman of  
the Board since 2006, will thereby leave Sampo's Board of Directors at the end  
of the AGM of 2009.                                                             

In order to ensure continuity in the management of Sampo Group, the Board's     
Nomination and Compensation Committee will propose to the AGM in the spring of  
2009, having consulted the major shareholders, that Björn Wahlroos be re-elected
to Sampo's Board of Directors and that he would be elected Chairman of the      
Board. Wahlroos would then leave his position as Group CEO and President of     
Sampo plc at the end of the AGM of 2009. According to the plan, Group Deputy CEO
Kari Stadigh will be nominated as the new CEO and President of Sampo Group.     


Shares and share capital                                                        

The Annual General Meeting of 15 April 2008 decided to distribute a dividend of 
EUR 1.20 per share for 2007. The record date for dividend payment was 18 April  
2008 and the dividend was paid on 25 April 2008. Total dividend payment amounted
to EUR 686 million.                                                             

The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board to acquire in one or several    
lots a maximum of 50,000,000 Sampo A shares. The shares can also be acquired in 
a proportion differing from the proportions of shares owned by the shareholders.
The share price will be no higher than the highest price paid for Sampo shares  
in public trading at the time of purchase. The authorisation will be valid until
the close of the next Annual General Meeting, nevertheless not more than 18     
months after AGM's decision.                                                    

Based on the aforementioned authorisation, Sampo plc's Board of Directors       
decided on 7 May 2008 to repurchase Sampo's A shares with distributable capital 
and reserves. Maximum amount to be repurchased is 50,000,000 A shares,          
corresponding to approximately 8.6 per cent of the total number of shares. The  
shares are acquired through public trading on the OMX Nordic Exchange at market 
price prevailing at the time of repurchase. No repurchases were made in the     
second quarter of 2008.                                                         

On 7 May 2008 Sampo plc's Board of Directors decided to cancel 6,715,000 Sampo A
shares repurchased during 2007 and January-March 2008. The cancellation reduces 
the number of Sampo A shares with the corresponding amount but has no effect on 
the share capital. The cancellation was entered into the Trade Register on 16   
May 2008.                                                                       

On 30 June 2008 Sampo plc's share capital amounted to EUR 98 million (98), and  
the number of A shares was 570,615,890. The total number of shares of the       
company, including 1,200,000 B shares, was 571,815,890.                         

On 16 May 2008 Sampo received a disclosure in accordance with Chapter 2 Section 
9 of the Securities Market Act regarding Sampo plc's shares. According to the   
disclosure Exista hf. and companies controlled by Exista hf. hold shares in     
Sampo plc below of the flagging threshold of 20 per cent of the number of shares
as set forth in Chapter 2, Section 9 of the Securities Market Act. According to 
the disclosure Exista Trading ehf. has also cancelled the equity swap agreement 
regarding 100,000 A shares in Sampo plc referred to in Exista hf.'s flagging    
notification of 11 February 2008. According to the disclosure Exista hf. and its
group companies hold 19.98 per cent of the total number of shares and 19.82 per 
cent of the voting rights in the Sampo plc. Complete disclosure is available at 
www.sampo.com.                                                                  


Staff                                                                           

Sampo Group's full-time equivalent staff on 30 June 2008 amounted to 7,048      
employees compared to 6,965 employees on 31 December 2007.                      

At the end of June 2008 approximately 94 per cent of the staff worked in P&C    
insurance, 6 per cent in life insurance and 1 per cent in the holding company.  
Geographical division of the staff was the following: 31 per cent worked in     
Finland, 27 per cent in Sweden, 23 per cent in Norway and 19 per cent in the    
Baltic and other countries.                                                     

The average number of employees during the first half of 2008 was 6,937 compared
to 6,803 employees during the same period of time in 2007.                      


Management long-term incentive schemes                                          

The payout on Sampo Group's long-term management incentive schemes is dependent 
on Sampo's financial and share price performance. On 7 May 2008 Sampo's Board   
decided on a new long-term incentive scheme 2008II. The total maximum number of 
bonus units under the scheme is 200,000.                                        

The incentive schemes 2005I - 2008II extend to 2011. The incentive schemes      
increased staff costs in the second quarter of 2008 by EUR 2 million (3) and on 
30 June 2008 the total provision for the schemes was EUR 10.5 million (20).     

The ‘Sampo 2006' share-based incentive scheme increased staff costs by EUR 1    
million (1) in the second quarter of 2008. The total provision for the scheme on
30 June 2008 was EUR 6.4 million (4.9).

All the main ratings for Sampo Group companies remained unchanged in the second 
quarter of 2008.

The Group solvency is based on adjusted solvency calculations for insurance     
groups according to the Decree of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health     
(1106/2000), Chapter 7.1 §. The adjusted solvency is determined on the basis of 
the Group financial statements as permitted by the Insurance Supervisory        
Authority.                                                                      

The Group's solvency ratio (own funds in relation to minimum requirements for   
own funds) on 30 June 2008 was 682.8 per cent (774.6).

In Sampo Group, and in its insurance subsidiaries, risks are measured and       
aggregated internally using an economic capital framework, which quantifies the 
amount of capital required to protect the economic solvency over a one year time
horizon at a confidence level equalling the historic bond defaults of AA-rated  
issuers.                                                                        

The economic capital tied up in Group's operations on 30 June 2008 was EUR 3,106
million (3,395). During the second quarter of 2008 the economic capital         
requirement decreased for If P&C by EUR 56 million due to lower equity risk and 
for Sampo Life by EUR 45 million due lower interest rate risk and equity risk.  


Outlook for the rest of 2008                                                    

Uncertainty has increased in the capital markets during the first half of 2008. 
The economic environment and financial markets continue to be challenging. Sampo
Group has positioned itself to face an economic downturn by reducing equity     
weights in its insurance subsidiaries and by keeping fixed-income investments   
mostly in liquid assets.                                                        

Sampo Group's result for 2008 will of course depend on investment markets, which
are likely to be more volatile than in previous years. Changes in the market    
values of Group's investment assets are, however, recorded in the fair value    
reserve in the balance sheet rather than reflected in reported profits, except  
for derivative instruments reported through the profit and loss account.        

The insurance technical development in P&C insurance is not expected to suffer  
from the economic downturn but remain sound in 2008. If P&C is expected to reach
its long-term combined ratio target of below 95 per cent and to achieve a       
combined ratio of 91 - 93 per cent for the full year 2008.                      

Sampo Life Group is not expected to achieve the exceptionally high profits of   
2006 and 2007. However, full-year 2008 results are expected to remain reasonably
good with average expected pre-tax profits of approximately 30 million euros per
quarter. Particular emphasis is given to improving sales performance through    
Sampo Bank.                                                                     

Sampo plc has investment assets of EUR 3.8 billion, of which approximately 2.3  
billion euros are invested in Nordea. Remaining funds are mainly invested in    
liquid money market instruments.                                                

The biggest risks for the outlook are a further severe weakening of equity      
markets, a sudden rise in interest rates or widening of credit spreads, which   
would in the short term cause valuation losses in the fair value reserve in the 
balance sheet. However, Sampo Group's equity capital on 30 June 2008 exceeded   
the economic capital required to manage the operations by approximately EUR 3.4 
billion and Sampo can therefore well sustain all foreseeable market downturns   
and is well positioned to profit from opportunities which may eventually arise  
in investment markets.

¹) Sampo plc's sales gain (EURm 2,830) arising from the disposal of the share   
stock of Sampo Bank plc to Danske Bank A/S is included in the comparison Group  
key figures.                                                                    

²) The Group solvency is based on adjusted solvency calculations for insurance  
groups according to the Decree of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health     
(1106/2000), Chapter 7.1 §. The adjusted solvency is determined on the basis of 
the Group financial statements as permitted by the Insurance Supervisory        
Authority.                                                                      

³) The key figures for P&C Insurance are based on activity based costs and      
cannot, therefore, be calculated directly from the consolidated income          
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 was 571,815,890 and the average number of shares during the  
period 573,643,115. The treasury shares (6,715,000) cancelled on 16 May 2008    
have been deducted from the average number of shares (4,887,775).               

In calculating the key figures, the tax corresponding to the result for the     
accounting period has been taken into account. The valuation differences of     
investment property and held-to-maturity debt securities have been taken into   
account in return on assets, return on equity, equity/assets ratio and net asset
value per share. Additionally, the change in fair value reserve has been taken  
into account in return on assets and return on equity. A deferred tax liability 
has been deducted from the valuation differences.                               

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 Insurance Supervisory Authority.

In the statements, the net cash derived from the disposal of Banking and        
investment services, is included in the cash flow from investing activities.	   

The cash flow statement reports cash flows during the period classified by      
operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flows are reported by using 
the indirect method. Cash flows from operating activities derive primarily from 
the principal revenue-producing activities. Cash flows from investments in      
subsidiaries and associated undertakings and those from investments in          
intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are presented in investing  
activities. Financing activities include cash flows resulting from changes in   
equity and borrowings in order to conduct the business. Cash and cash           
equivalents consist of cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits (under 3
months).

Investment contracts do not include a provision for claims outstanding.         
Liability adequacy test does not give rise to supplementary claims. Exemption   
allowed in IFRS 4 Insurance contracts has been applied to investment contracts  
with DPF or contracts with a right to trade-off for an investment contract with 
DPF. These investment contracts have been valued like insurance contracts.
