The changes in the fair value reserve are disclosed in the Statement of changes in equity. Other income and expenses comprise rental income, maintenance expenses and depreciation of investment property. All the income and expenses arising from investments are included in Net income from investments. Gains/losses include realised gains/losses on sales, unrealised and realised changes in fair values and exchange differences. Unrealised fair value changes for financial assets available-for-sale are recorded in other comprehensive income and presented in the fair value reserve in equity. The effect of discounting annuities in P&C insurance is disclosed separately. The provision for annuities is calculated in accordance with actuarial principles taking anticipated inflation and mortality into consideration, and discounted to take the anticipated future return on investments into account. To cover the costs for upward adjustment of annuity provisions required for the gradual reversal of such discounting, an anticipated return on investments is added to annuity results.

The provision for annuities is valued in accordance with normal actuarial principles taking anticipated inflation and mortality into consideration, and discounted to take the anticipated future investment return into account. To cover costs for the costs for the upward adjustment of annuity provisions required for the gradual reversal of such discounting, an anticipated return is added to the annuity results. Provisions for incurred but not reported losses pertaining to annuities in Finland are discounted. The provisions in 2014 amounted to EURm 257 (282). The non-discounted value was EURm 388 (453). The exchange effect on the discounted provisions was an increase of EURm 16. The real decrease EURm 26 is explained by the model adjustment for Motor Third Party Liability and Workers' Compensation insurances.

Testing goodwill for impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of assets. No impairment losses have been recognised based on these tests.
For the purpose of testing goodwill for impairment, Sampo determines the recoverable amount of its cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated, on the basis of value in use. Sampo has defined these cash-generating units as If Group and Mandatum Life.
The recoverable amounts for If have been determined by using a discounted cash flow model. The model is based on Sampo’s management’s best estimates of both historical evidence and economic conditions such as volumes,interest rates, margins, capital structure and income and cost development. The value in use model for Mandatum Life is greatly influenced by the long-term development of insurance liabilities, affecting e.g. the required solvency capital and thus the recoverable amount. That is why the forecast period is longer for Mandatum Life, 10 years. The derived cash flows were discounted at the pre-tax rates of the weighted average cost of capital which for If was 7.7 % and for Mandatum Life 8.3 %. These are somewhat lower than last year due to the decrease in interest rates.
Forecasts for If, approved by the management, cover years 2015 – 2016. The cash flows beyond that have been extrapolated using a 2 % growth rate. A 2 % growth rate for years beyond 2024 has been used for the for Mandatum Life as well, as it is believed to be close to the anticipated inflation.
In Mandatum Life, the recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount by some EURm 450. With the calculation method used, e.g. an increase of about 2.7 % in the weighted average cost of capital could lead to a situation where the recoverable amount of the entity would equal its carrying amount.
As for the If Group, the management believes that any reasonably possible change in any of these key assumptions would not cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the aggregate recoverable amount.

In the table above are presented fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities. The detailed measurement bases of financial assets and liabilities are disclosed in Group Accounting policies.
The fair value of investment securities is assessed using quoted prices in active markets. If published price quotations are not available, the fair value is assessed using discounting method. Values for the discount rates are taken from the market’s yield curve.
The fair value of the derivative instruments is assessed using quoted market prices in active markets, discounting method or option pricing models.
The fair value of loans and other financial instruments which have no quoted price in active markets is based on discounted cash flows, using quoted market rates. The market’s yield curve is adjusted by other components of the instrument, e.g. by credit risk.
The fair value for short-term non-interest-bearing receivables and payables is their carrying amount.
Disclosed fair values are "clean" fair values, i.e. less interest accruals.
17 Determination and hierarchy of fair values
A large majority of Sampo Group's financial assets are valued at fair value. The valuation is based on either published price quatations or valuation techniques based on market observable inputs, where available. For a limited amount of assets the value needs to be determined using other techniques. The financial instruments measured at fair value have been classified into three hierarchy levels in the notes, depending on e.g. if the market for the instrument is active, or if the inputs used in the valuation technique are observable.
On level 1, the measurement of the instrument is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
On level 2, inputs for the measurement of the instrument include also other than quoted prices observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly by using valuation techniques.

Transfers betweel levels 1 and 2
During the last quarter, the Group started to utilise the BVAL Score information for level determination. As a result, there were several classification changes from level 2 to level 1. Debt securities available-for-sale EURm 5,438 (151) were transferred during the financial year. Also debt securities at fair value through p/l EURm 19 were transferred. Equity securities EURm 68 and debt securities EURm 368, related to unit-linked insurance, were equivalently transferred to level one.
Sensitivity analysis of fair values
The sensitivity of financial assets and liabilites to changes in exchange rates is assessed on business area level due to differenct base currencies. In P&C insurance, 10 percentage point depreciation of all other currencies against SEK would result in an increase recognised in profit/loss of EURm 30 (12) and in a decrease recognised directly in equity of EURm 13 (11). In Life insurance, 10 percentage point depreciation of all other currencies against EUR would result in an increase recognised in profit/loss of EURm 35 (14) and in a decrease recognised directly in equity of EURm 94 (68). In Holding, 10 percentage point depreciation of all other currencies against EUR would have no impact in profit/loss, but a decrease recognised in equity of EURm 71 (15).
The sensitivity analysis of the Group's fair values of financial assets and liabilities in differenct market risk scenarios is presented below. The effects represent the instantaneous effects of a one-off change in the underlying market variable on the fair values on 31 Dec. 2014.
The sensitivity analysis includes the effects of derivative positions. All sensitivities are calculated before taxes.
The debt issued by Sampo plc is not included.

The value of financial assets regarding the debt security instruments has been tested by assuming a rise of 1 per cent unit in interest rate level in all maturities. For other financial assets, the prices were assumed to go down by 20 %. The Sampo Group bears no investment risks relatted to unit-linked insurance, so a change in assumptions regarding these assets does not affect profit or loss. On the basis of the these alternative assumptions, a possible change in interest levels would cause descend of EURm 4 (2) for the debt instruments, and EURm 166 (161) valuation loss for other instruments in the Group's other comprehensive income. The reasonably possible effect, proportionate to the Group's equity, would thus be 1.6 % (1.5).

Employee benefits
Sampo has defined benefit plans in P&C insurance business in Sweden and Norway.
In addition to statutory retirement pension insurance, the Group has certain voluntary defined benefit plans. The voluntary defined benefit plans are intra-Group and included in the insurance liabilities of Mandatum Life. The amount is negligible and they have no material impact on the Group profit or loss or equity.

Since January 1, 2008, the main Swedish pension plan has been closed to new employees born in 1972 or later and the corresponding Norwegian pension plan has been closed to new employees since January 1, 2007 regardless of age. The pension benefits referred to are old-age pension and survivors’ pension in Sweden and old-age pension, survivors’ pension and disability pension in Norway. A common feature of all of the pension plans is that the employees and survivors encompassed by the plans are entitled to a guaranteed pension that depends on the employees’ service period and pensionable salary at the time of retirement. The dominating benefit is the old-age pension, which refers in part to temporary pension before the anticipated retirement age and in part to a life-long pension after the anticipated retirement age.
The retirement age for receiving premature pension is normally 62 years in Sweden and normally 65 years in Norway. In Sweden, premature old-age pension following a complete service period is payable at a rate of approximately 65% percent of the pensionable salary and applies to all employees born in 1955 or earlier and who were covered by the insurance sector’s collective bargaining agreement of 2006. In Norway, premature old-age pension following a complete service period is payable at a rate of approximately 70% percent of the pensionable salary and applies to all employees born in 1957 or earlier and who were employed by If in 2013.
The anticipated retirement age in connection with life-long pension is 65 years for Sweden and 67 years for Norway. In Sweden, life-long old-age pension following a complete service period is payable at a rate of approximately 10 percent of the pensionable salary between 0 and 7.5 income base amounts, 65 percent of salary between 7.5 and 20 income base amounts and 32.5 percent between 20 and 30 income base amounts. In Norway, life-long old-age pension following a complete service period is payable at a rate of approximately 70 percent of the pensionable salary up to 12 Norwegian base amounts, together with the estimated statutory old-age pension. Paid-up policies and pension payments from the Swedish plans are normally indexed upwards in an amount corresponding to the change in the consumer price index. However, there is no agreement guaranteeing the value and future supplements in addition to the contractual pension benefit could either rise of fall. Pension payments from the Norwegian plans are indexed upwards in an amount corresponding to the change in the consumer price index to the extent of 80 - 100 %.
The pensions are primarily funded through insurance whereby the insurers establish the premiums and disburse the benefits. If’s obligation is primarily fulfilled through payment of the premiums. Should the assets that are attributable to the pension benefits not be sufficient to enable the insurers to cover the guaranteed pension benefits, If could be forced to pay supplementary insurance premiums or secure the pension obligations in some other way. In addition to insured pension plans, there are also unfunded pension benefits in Norway for which If is responsible for ongoing payment.
To cover the insured pension benefits, the related capital is managed as part of the insurers’ management portfolios. In such management, the characteristics of the investment assets are analyzed in relation to the characteristics of the obligations, in a process known as Asset Liability Management. New and existing asset categories are evaluated continuously in order to diversify the asset portfolios with a view to optimizing the anticipated risk-adjusted return. Any surplus that arises from management of the assets normally accrues to If and/or the insured and there is no form of transfer of the asset value to other members of the insurance collective.
The insurers and If are jointly responsible for monitoring the pension plans, including investment decisions and contributions. The pension plans are essentially exposed to similar material risks regarding the final amount of the benefits, the investment risk associated with the plan assets and the fact that the choice of discount interest rate affects their valuation in the financial statements.
When applying IAS 19, the pension obligations are calculated, as is the pension cost attributable to the fiscal period, using actuarial methods. Pension rights are considered to have been vested straight line during the service period. The calculation of pension obligations is based on future anticipated pension payments and includes assumptions regarding mortality, employee turnover and salary growth. The nominally calculated debt is discounted to the present value using an interest rate based on current market interest rates adjusted to take into account the duration of the company’s pension obligations. As a basis for determining the discount interest rate for the Swedish obligation, If uses liquid covered mortgage bonds issued by a mortgage institution. Covered mortgage bonds are also used for the Norwegian obligation. After a deduction for the plan assets, a net asset or net liability is recognised in the balance sheet.
The following tables contain a number of material assumptions, specifications of pension costs, assets and liabilities and a sensitivity analysis showing the potential effect on the obligations of reasonable changes in those assumptions as at the end of the fiscal year. The carrying amounts have been stated including special payroll tax in Sweden (24.26%) and a corresponding fee in Norway (14.1%).

36 Incentive schemes
Long-term incentive schemes 2011 I - 2014 I
The Board of Directors of Sampo plc has decided on the long-term incentive schemes 2011 I - 2014 I for the management and key employees of Sampo Group. The Board has authorised the CEO to decide who will be included in the scheme, as well as the number of calculated incentive units granted for each individual used in determining the amount of the incentive reward. In the schemes, the number of calculated incentive units granted for the members of the Group Executive Committee is decided by the Board of Directors. Over 130 persons were included in the schemes at the end of year 2014.
The amount of the performance-related bonus is based on the value performance of Sampo's A share and on the insurance margin (IM) and on Sampo's return on the risk adjusted capital (RORAC). The value of one calculated incentive unit is the trade-weighted average price of Sampo's A-share at the time period specified in the terms of the scheme, and reduced by the starting price adjusted with the dividends per share distributed up to the payment date. The pre-dividend starting prices vary between eur 18.37 - 38.26. The maximum value of one incentive unit varies between eur 33.37 - 57.26, reduced by the dividend-adjusted starting price. In all the schemes, the incentive reward depends on two benchmarks. If the IM is 6 per cent or more, the IM-based reward is paid in full. If the IM is between 4 - 5.99 per cent, half of the incentive reward is paid. No IM-related reward will be paid out, if the IM stays below these. In addition, the return on the risk adjusted capital is taken into account. If the return is at least risk free return + 4 per cent, the RORAC-based incentive reward is paid out in full. If the return is risk free return + 2 percent, but less than risk free return + 4 percent, the payout is 50 per cent. If the return stays below these benchmarks, no RORAC-based reward will be paid out.
Each plan has three performance periods and incentive rewards are settled in cash in three installments. The employee shall authorise Sampo plc to buy Sampo's A-shares with 60 per cent of the amount of the reward after taxes and other comparable charges. The shares are subject to transfer restrictions for three years from the day of payout. A premature payment of the reward may occur in the event of changes in the group structure or in the case of employment termination on specifically determined bases. The fair value of the incentive schemes is estimated by using the Black-Scholes pricing model.
