Aktia maintains its previous outlook in which the comparable operating profit for 2021 is expected to
be considerably higher than during 2020 (maintained)
• The increase in net interest income is expected to continue owing to strong volume increase and
reasonable financing expenses
• The increase in commission income from fund and asset management is expected to be higher than
during the first half year due to the acquisition of Taaleri’s wealth management operations
• Expenses are expected to be higher than during 2020 considering the increased staff expenses due to the
acquisition of Taaleri’s wealth management operations as well as one-off transaction and integration
related expenses
• Provisions for possible expected credit losses are expected to increase moderately. Aktia’s liquidity is
expected to be at a high level and the capital adequacy ratio is expected to be stable

Staff costs:
Staff costs increased by 20% to EUR 126.2
(105.5) million. The increase is mainly attributable
to increase in personnel as a result of acquisition
of Taaleri’s wealth management operations (in
2Q).
IT expenses:
IT expenses increased by 13% to EUR 21.6 (19.0)
million. The difference is mainly attributable to
Taaleri’s wealth management operations IT
expenses as well as a greater number of IT
projects than for the corresponding period last
year.
Other operating expenses:
Comparable other operating expenses increased
by 34% to EUR 29.0 (21.6) million. The increase
mainly pertains to one-off expenses (advisory
fees, transfer taxes) relating to the acquisition of
Taaleri’s wealth management operations. The
stability fee increased to EUR 4.1 (2.8) million.
The depreciations of intangible assets increased
as a result of the acquisition of Taaleri’s wealth
management operations, while Aktia’s other
depreciations have somewhat decreased.

updated again in Q3, no material impact in
