In Sampo Group, compliance is an activity supporting business activities while being independently admin­istered, and it aims at securing the compatibility with applicable norms of all Group activities.

In Sampo Group Compliance Principles the starting point is that compliance with norms is an established part of Sampo’s corporate culture, and the principles ensure that compliance activities are properly organized in Group companies, and that the business organization is capable to respond to the changing requirements of business envi­ronment. The guidance contains the perceived common denominators of successful compliance activity – a set of general principles that describe essential features of effective compliance activities within the context of the business environment Sampo Group companies are oper­ating. The principles do not, however, limit the flexibility of each subsidiary company when addressing its own specific needs in relation to compliance.
