Sampo launches new long-term incentive scheme for 2026–2028

An announcement from Sampo Plc ( (GB:0HAG) ) is now available.

Sampo plc has approved a new performance-based long-term incentive scheme for 2026–2028 aimed at around 100 senior leaders and key employees, including the Group CEO and Executive Committee, but excluding the Board. The plan, structurally similar to earlier schemes, is designed to align management rewards with shareholder interests and Sampo’s strategy, underpinning retention of high-performing talent critical to the group’s insurance operations.

The LTI 2026 will grant up to 1,960,000 performance incentive units, with a three-year performance period tied to relative and adjusted total shareholder return, underwriting profit growth, and progress on Science Based Targets, and its estimated total cost is about EUR 39 million assuming full vesting and a 50% rise in Sampo’s A share price. Rewards will be paid in cash, with mandatory share purchases and a three-year deferral plus risk and compliance review, reinforcing disciplined risk-taking, sustainability integration, and long-term financial stability for stakeholders.
