Updated Communications and Disclosure Policy shared by OP Financial Group, OP
Corporate Bank plc and OP Mortgage Bank

Based on the decisions by the Executive Board of OP Cooperative and the boards
of directors of OP Corporate Bank plc and OP Mortgage Bank, OP Financial Group
has updated its Group-level Communications and Disclosure Policy adopted on 16
December 2014.

This Policy update is based, for example, on the changed business names
announced on 15 March 2016 and on legislative amendments. In addition to the
abovementioned alterations, the most significant change relates updating the
communication media in such a way that op.fi will serve as the main media for
providing up-to-date information. Services on pohjola.fi (pohjola.com)
previously serving as the other main media will gradually be integrated as part
of op.fi. In the first stage of this change, op.fi and pohjola.fi will co-exist.

The updated Communications and Disclosure Policy is attached and is also
available at op.fi > OP Financial Group > OP Financial Group > Corporate
Governance > Communications and Disclosure Policy. The Policy will take effect
immediately.
