Aktia's CEO Anssi Huhta:

"Pasi Vuorinen, Eva-Maria Broman-Rimpi and Ville Niiranen have long been responsible for their respective areas and demonstrated strong leadership. It is natural to formalise their roles in the Group's Executive Committee. Following the many recent changes, it is particularly valuable to us that our Executive Committee already has a thorough knowledge of our operations, customers, and culture. These appointments provide a clear structure and reflect our strategy. We are better able to create customer value by jointly developing our three business areas: banking, asset management and life insurance. Simultaneously, we will ensure that risk management, governance and control are at the heart of everything we do, bringing stability to the implementation of our strategy."

"Pasi Vuorinen is a strategic and result-oriented leader with in-depth experience in both institutional asset management and customer relations. These characteristics are crucial in leading the asset management business successfully in a changing market and in strengthening Aktia's position in the future."

"Eva-Maria Broman-Rimpi is known for her analytical way of working and her ability to combine the business perspective with a strict consideration of regulatory and risk requirements. As CRO, Eva-Maria's task is to ensure that the bank has a strong and clear risk management culture. As CRO, she reports directly to the Board of Directors, making the role integral to ensuring the long-term stability of the bank from the perspective of customers and employees, as well as shareholders."

"Aktia stands on three strong pillars: banking, asset management and life insurance. For this reason, we want to ensure that the life insurance business is well represented in the Group's Executive Committee. Ville Niiranen has a proven track record of implementing strategies, customer-oriented reforms and change management in a strictly regulated operating environment.
