During Q2 2009, the Bank of Åland Group recognised EUR 23.1 M in negative goodwill as income. Consolidated earnings and financial ratios for the first half of 2010 are thus not comparable to the corresponding data for the first half of 2009. •Consolidated net operating profit excluding negative goodwill decreased by 17 per cent to 4.2 million euros (January-June 2009: EUR 5.1 M). •Net interest income increased by 4 per cent to EUR 19.9 M (19.2) •Commission income increased by 58 per cent to EUR 20.6 M(13.0) •Total income increased by 15 per cent to EUR 48.9 M (42.4) •Expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3) •Impairment losses on loans amounted to EUR 0.1 M (2.2) •Lending volume increased by 5 per cent to EUR 2,549 M (June 2009: 2,428) •Deposits increased by 4 per cent to EUR 2,492 M (June 2009: 2,401) •Managed assets increased by 51 per cent to EUR 3,585 M (2,377) •Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.17 (2.23) •The total capital ratio in compliance with Basel 2 amounted to 12.4 per cent (12.7) •Compared to the second quarter of 2009, consolidated net operating profit (excluding negative goodwill) amounted to EUR 2.1 M (April-June 2009: -1.2) •Taking into consideration that the Group's earnings in 2009 included a sizeable non-recurring income item, earnings in 2010 are expected to be substantially lower than in 2009 •The Group's operational earnings, excluding non-recurring income, are expected to be at least at the same level as in 2009 Earnings and profitability This Interim Report has been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) that have been adopted by the European Union, as well as with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. Earnings summary for the report period The consolidated earnings of the Bank of Åland Group during the first half of 2010 were characterised by a clear improvement in income from asset management and private banking operations, while low market interest rates and depressed deposit margins continued to pull down net interest income in traditional banking operations. The Bank of Åland Group's managed assets showed very good growth, while lending and deposit volume increased moderately. Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd's operations expanded during the period, contributing to higher “Other operating income”. During the period, the operations of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB were loss-making, even though managed assets showed positive growth. During January-June 2010, the consolidated net operating profit of the Bank of Åland Group decreased by 17 per cent to EUR 4.2 M (Jan-Jun 2009: 5.1). During the second quarter of 2009, the Group recognised negative goodwill of EUR 23.1 M as income, due to its purchase of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB. Income excluding negative goodwill increased by 15 per cent to EUR 48.9 M (42.4), while expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3). Return on equity after taxes (ROE) decreased to 3.0 (35.0) per cent, and earnings per share to EUR 0.17 (2.23). The loss at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB during the report period totalled EUR 5.9 M. The subsidiary group Ålandsbanken Sverige AB was consolidated in the Bank of Åland Group for the first time on March 31, 2009. This meant that the company was included in the statement of financial position, while earnings for the first half of 2009 did not include effects generated in Ålandsbanken Sverige AB during the first quarter of 2009. This affects comparability between the periods. The allocation between the Group's Finnish and Swedish business areas can be found in the table entitled “Earnings, newly acquired operations” on page 9. Net interest income During the report period, consolidated net interest income increased by 4 per cent to EUR 19.9 M (19.2). Ålandsbanken Sverige AB had net interest income of EUR 4.1 M. Rising margins and higher lending volume had a positive impact, while shrinking deposit margins and higher refinancing costs depressed the Group's net interest income. Lending volume rose by 5 per cent to EUR 2,549 M (2,428). Deposit volume increased by 4 per cent to EUR 2,492 M (2,401). Other income Commission income rose by 58 per cent to EUR 20.6 M (13.0). The Group's focus on private banking and the good stock market trend increased income from securities and mutual funds as well as asset management. Commission income at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB amounted to EUR 8.0 M (3.3). Net income from securities trading for the Bank's own account was EUR 0.2 M (2.9). Net income from dealing in the foreign exchange market decreased to EUR 0.9 M (1.1). Net income from financial assets available for sale was EUR 0.9 M (0.1), and net income from investment properties increased to 0.6 M (0.2). Other operating income increased to EUR 9.0 M (7.3) as a consequence of higher income from the sale and development of information technology (IT) systems. The Group's total income, excluding negative goodwill, increased by 15 percent to EUR 48.9 M (42.4). Expenses Staff costs rose by 32 per cent to EUR 26.4 M (20.0) as a consequence of the acquisition of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, employee recruitments at Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd plus salary hikes as provided by collective agreements. Staff costs at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB amounted to EUR 9.2 M (4.4). Changes in the Bank's pension fund, Ålandsbanken Abp:s Pensionsstiftelse, according to the corridor approach reduced staff costs by EUR 0.2 M (0.0). Other administrative expenses (office, marketing, communications and IT) increased to EUR 8.8 M (7.5). Production for own use totalled EUR 2.2 M (0.3) and was related to expenses for computer software, which in accordance with IFRSs must be capitalised. Depreciation/amortisation increased to EUR 3.6 M (3.2). Other operating expenses amounted to EUR 8.1 M (5.1), of which EUR 3.8 M arose at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. The Group's total expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3). Impairment losses on loans and other commitments Impairment losses on loans amounted to EUR 0.1 M (0.2). All of these were individually targeted impairment losses. Second Quarter of 2010 Compared to the second quarter of 2009, the Group's net operating profit (excluding negative goodwill) rose to EUR 2.1 M (Q2 2009: -1.2). Including negative goodwill, net operating profit in the second quarter of 2009 was EUR 22.0 M. Income Total income (excluding negative goodwill) increased by 15 per cent to EUR 25.4 M (22.1). Net interest income rose by 1 per cent to EUR 10.2 M (10.1), due to higher deposit and lending volume. Commission income improved, amounting to EUR 11.5 M (8.1). Commission income on mutual funds, securities and asset management improved during the period. Net income from securities trading and foreign exchange operations decreased to EUR -0.9 M (0.8). Other operating income increased to EUR 4.8 M (3.9) as a consequence of higher income from IT operations. Expenses Total expenses increased by 9 per cent to EUR 23.4 M (21.5). During the quarter, staff costs amounted to EUR 13.6 M (12.3). Other administrative expenses increased to EUR 4.9 M (4.6) during the second quarter, primarily because of higher external computer expenses. Due to increased property rents, other operating expenses rose to EUR 4.4 M (3.0). Deposits Deposits from the public, including bonds and certificates of deposit issued, increased by 4 per cent to EUR 2,492 M (2,401), of which EUR 382 M (261) consisted of deposits at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB.

The Group's total capital ratio at the end of June 2010 was 12.4 per cent. The capital requirement for credit risks has been calculated according to the standardised approach, and the capital requirement for operational risks according to the basic indicator approach in the Basel 2 regulations. Risk management under Pillar 2 will be reported in the Annual Report for 2009. The Bank of Åland will endeavour to begin applying an Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach in compliance with Basel 2 to calculate its capital adequacy requirement for credit risk, starting on January 1, 2011. An application requesting approval for the use of Basel 2's Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach for calculating the capital adequacy requirement for credit risk was submitted to the Finnish Financial Supervision Authority during the report period. Our assessment, according to the current regulations, is that this will substantially improve the Bank of Åland's capital adequacy.

Changes in group structure On May 31, 2010, the Bank of Åland Plc acquired the minority interest in Ålandsbanken Equities Ab. After this transaction, the Bank owns 100 per cent of Ålandsbanken Equities Ab. A process has been initiated to merge Ålandsbanken Equities Ab with the Bank of Åland Plc, and this merger is expected to be completed during 2010. Important events after the close of the report period The Bank of Åland Plc's issue of debenture loan 2/2010 was completed on July 19, 2010. This debenture loan issue totalled EUR 20 M. Outlook for 2010 Most observers expect a continued gradual recovery in the general economy and in the financial system during 2010, but the economic situation will remain uncertain and there is thus great sensitivity. The Bank of Åland carried out an organisational change after completing the co-determination negotiations that were initiated on March 12, 2010. The aim of the reorganisation is to streamline the Bank's administrative functions by introducing Group-wide corporate and support units. Meanwhile the Bank is continuing to shift the focus of its operations increasingly to investment services, as part of its strategy of being a bank for investors that has financing financing know-how in expansive markets. The co-determination negotiations, which were completed on May 25, 2010, dealt with a need to reduce the number of positions by about 24 people. The negotiations achieved their aims without dismissals, by means of reassignments, early retirements and voluntary redundancy packages. A review was made of the cost structure at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB for the purpose of increasing efficiency while continuing to offer customers the same capacity and service. The Executive Team has identified potential efficiency improvements equivalent to an annual cost reduction of about EUR 3 M, of which half the potential is found at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. This cost reduction is expected to achieve its full effect from the turn of the year. Nonrecurring costs associated with these measures are expected to total about EUR 0.5 M during 2010. The Group's assessment of the outlook for 2010 is based on its assumptions about future developments in the fixed income and financial markets. However, general interest rates, the demand for lending, the trend of the capital and financial markets and the competitive situation, as well as the general economic situation are factors that the Group cannot influence. Based on this assessment and taking into account that the Group's earnings in 2009 included sizeable non-recurring income attributable to negative goodwill from the acquisition of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB, earnings in 2010 are expected to be substantially lower than in 2009. The Group's operational earnings, excluding nonrecurring income, are expected to be at least at the same level as in 2009. Interim reports will be published as follows during 2010.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes to the consolidated interim report 1. Corporate information The Bank of Åland Plc (Ålandsbanken Abp) is a Finnish public company, organised in compliance with Finnish legislation and with its Head Office in Mariehamn. The Bank of Åland Plc is a commercial bank with a total of 28 offices. Through its subsidiary Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd, the Bank of Åland Group is also a supplier of modern banking computer systems for small and medium-sized banks. The Head Office of the Parent Company has the following address: Bank of Åland Plc Nygatan 2 AX-22100 Mariehamn, Åland, Finland The shares of the Bank of Åland Plc are traded on the Nasdaq OMX Helsinki Oy (Helsinki Stock Exchange). The Interim Report for the financial period January 1-June 30, 2010 was approved by the Board of Directors on July 30 , 2010. 2. Basis for preparation and essential accounting principles Basis for preparation The Interim Report for the period January 1-June 30, 2010 has been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting,” that have been adopted by the European Union. The Interim Report does not contain all information and notes required in annual financial statements and should be read together with the consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009. Essential accounting principles The essential accounting principles used in preparing the Interim Report are the same as the essential accounting principles used in preparing the financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009, except for the introduction of new standards and interpretations, which are described below. The introduction of new standards and interpretations has not materially affected the Group's results or financial position. As from April 1, 2010, the Bank of Åland Abp is applying hedge accounting in accordance with IAS 39, unlike what was stated in the Annual Report for 2009. Hedge accounting is used in order to hedge the foreign exchange risk on the Group's equity in Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. This means that the derivatives that protect this equity are recognised at fair value in the balance sheet in the same way as exchange rate changes in “Other comprehensive income”. Hedge accounting is expected to provide a more true and fair picture of the Group's financial results. New accounting norms and standards that will apply starting in 2010: Improvements to International Financial Reporting Standards (2009) IFRS 2, “Share-based Payments” IFRS 3, “Business Combinations” IAS 27, “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” IAS 39 Financial instrument: Recognition and Measurement” - Eligible Hedged Items IFRIC 12, “Service Concession Arrangements” IFRIC 15, “Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate” IFRIC 16, “Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation” IFRIC 17, “Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners” IFRIC 18, “Transfers of Assets from Customers” 3. Estimates and judgements Preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRSs requires the company's Executive Team to make estimates and judgements that affect the recognised amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses as well as disclosures about commitments. Although these estimates are based on the best knowledge of the Executive Team on current events and measures, the actual outcome may diverge from the estimates. 4. Segment report The Bank of Åland Group reports operating segments in compliance with IFRS 8, which means that operating segments reflect the information that the Group's Executive Team receives. The Finland segment includes the Bank of Åland Plc, Ab Compass Card Oy Ltd, Ålandsbanken Asset Management Ab, Ålandsbanken Equities Ab, Ålandsbanken Fondbolag Ab and Ålandsbanken Veranta Ab. The Sweden segment includes Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, Ålandsbanken Fonder AB and Alpha Management Company S.A.

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for preparing the Interim Report and for providing accurate and sufficient information in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union (EU) as well as in accordance with the other prevailing laws and regulations in Finland concerning the preparation of interim reports. On the basis of the review we have performed, at the request of the Board we are issuing our statement of opinion on the Interim Report in compliance with the Finnish Securities Markets Act, Chapter 2, Section 5a, Paragraph 7. SCOPE OF A REVIEW This review was conducted in compliance with the standard on review engagements, Standard 2410, “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Company”. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons chiefly responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially more limited in scope than an audit, which must be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and recommendations. It is consequently not possible for us to gain confirmation that we are obtaining information about all those significant circumstances that might be identified in an audit. We are thus not issuing an audit report. STATEMENT OF OPINION On the basis of our review, to our knowledge no circumstances have emerged that would give us reason to believe that the Interim Report does not provide accurate and sufficient disclosures about the financial position of the Bank of Åland Group on June 30, 2010 and its operating results and cash flows during the six-month period ending on that date, in compliance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU and in accordance with the other prevailing laws and regulations in Finland concerning the preparation of interim reports.
