In January 2014 Aktia Bank plc's Board has decided to expand the Group's share ownership scheme to "Share Ownership Scheme 2015".

The target group included in the share ownership scheme 2015 comprises 16 key personnel.  The maximum reward paid on the basis of the scheme may amount to 48,000 A shares in Aktia Bank plc and a sum in cash corresponding the value of the shares.

The scheme aims to support the long-term strategy of the group; unify the objectives of the owners and key personnel; raise the value of the company; and tie the key personnel to the company; offering them a competitive incentive scheme based on share ownership in Aktia.

The shareholder scheme gives key personnel in Aktia the opportunity to receive Aktia shares as compensation for acquisition of Aktia Bank plc's A shares with private means. The compensation is paid to key personnel before end of May 2018, and comprises both shares and cash, providing that the key person's employment continues.
