Pohjola Bank plc	Interim Report	 6 November 2008, 8.00 am 1(45)              

Pohjola Bank plc Interim Report 1 January-30 September 2008 with President and  
CEO's Comments                                                                  


President and CEO's comments:                                                   

The Group's customer business continued to make good progress during the third  
quarter too. Banking showed strong growth in terms of the credit portfolio and  
net interest income, while Non-life Insurance recorded an accelerating growth   
rate of insurance premium revenue and the combined ratio improved markedly year 
on year. The balance on technical account was excellent.                        

The global financial crisis came to a head in September as a result of Lehman   
Brothers filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. At Pohjola Group, the     
effects of the financial crisis were felt in the mark-to-market valuations of   
the Group's liquidity reserves and Non-life Insurance investment operations.    
Consequently, we reported lower earnings than a year ago, both in the third     
quarter and in January-September.                                               

The Group has strong capital adequacy and good liquidity and funding operations 
have remained almost normal despite the difficult market situation.             

The past few weeks have seen added uncertainty associated with the economic     
development. The Group's doubtful receivables are at a low level but if the     
economy takes a turn for the worse, their amounts may increase. Within Non-life 
Insurance, the economic slowdown will probably be reflected in slower growth in 
claims incurred.

Mikael Silvennoinen

January-September                                                               

Pohjola Bank Group's (Pohjola Bank) earnings before tax decreased to EUR 114    
million (220). Consolidated net income fell by 18% to EUR 450 million (549), due
to negative mark-to-market valuation of liquidity reserves, while expenses rose 
by 2% to EUR 337 million (328). Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s bankruptcy      
filing weakened earnings by EUR 16 million. The figure for Q1-3/2007 includes   
EUR 10 million in liquidated damages resulting from the cancellation of the     
partnership agreement with savings banks.                                       

On 30 September, the capital adequacy ratio stood at 11.4% (11.8) and Tier 1    
ratio at 9.3% (9.9).                                                            

Earnings per share were EUR 0.41 (0.80), while equity per share was EUR 8.29    
(9.19).                                                                         

As a result of higher interest rates and lower equity prices, the fair value    
reserve before tax decreased by EUR 181 million. The Group reported EUR 67      
million in loss before tax at fair value (earnings of EUR 200 million) and      
annualised return on equity stood at -3.9% (10.8).                              

July-September                                                                  

The Group reported earnings of EUR 43 million (56) before tax, with Lehman      
Brothers Holdings Inc.'s bankruptcy filing weakening earnings by EUR 16 million.

Earnings per share were EUR 0.15 (0.20).                                        

The Group reported EUR 39 million in loss before tax at fair value (earnings of 
EUR 46 million) and annualised return on equity stood at -7.2% (7.1).           


Operating environment                                                           

The continued uncertain mood in financial markets intensified during the third  
quarter. Interbank funding markets were severely hit by Lehman Brothers Holdings
Inc.'s filing for Chapter 11 in mid-September, causing financial market         
liquidity to plunge. The rapidly increasingly lack of confidence in financial   
markets made short-term market rates, liquidity and risk premiums and the       
volatility of equity, foreign exchange and commodity markets rise sharply. In   
order to secure financial-market stability, central banks around the world      
boosted liquidity and several governments jointly and severally announced       
large-scale efforts to bail out the banking sector.                             

The global financial crisis has led to a number of restructuring measures within
the US and European financial sectors and many financial institutions have had  
to rely on government bailout programmes. In October, the Finnish government    
alongside the other EU governments agreed to guarantee interbank lending, if    
necessary, and make fixed-term capital investments in banks. However, Finnish   
banks have announced that they are in no need of financial aid in the current   
situation.                                                                      

Measures taken by central banks and governments to bail out the financial sector
are gradually reflected in reviving interbank trading and falling short-term    
market rates although it is still difficult to assess the ultimate effects of   
these measures on the financial markets.                                        

This global financial crisis has resulted in much bleaker outlook for the world 
economy. The crisis originating in the US housing market has spread across other
sectors with the result that the US economy is heading into recession. The      
economic situation within the EU has also worsened considerably and several     
member states expect their output to shrink.  Emerging economies too are        
experiencing slowing growth, for weaker export prospects will be only partly    
offset by domestic demand.                                                      

The financial crisis has weakened Finland's economic outlook further, with      
economic forecasts predicting a downward trend. Of the main sectors,            
manufacturing industries expect lower output and construction output is on the  
wane, whereas business conditions in the service sector are still favourable.   
Consumer confidence with respect to developments in the economy and employment  
has also weakened considerably during the autumn.                               

Bleaker economic prospects have not been reflected in growth in non-life        
insurance premiums written, but there are early signs of a slowdown in growth in
claims expenditure. The current predicament in financial markets has been       
reflected in Non-life Insurance in terms of weak developments in investment     
income.                                                                         


Integration                                                                     

The integration process related to the OKO Bank's acquisition of Non-life       
Insurance operations in 2005 is proceeding according to plan.  The results so   
far support earlier estimates of annual revenue synergies coming to EUR 17      
million by the end of 2010 and cost synergies reaching 35 million by the end of 
2009. Savings based on decisions on streamlining measures underway during       
2005-08 will amount to an estimated EUR 33 million in 2008. From 2009, savings  
from the integration will reach an annual level of EUR 36 million. The revenue  
synergies resulting from growth in the number of loyal customer households by   
the end of the reporting period have reached an annual level of EUR 11 million  
and the aim is to reach EUR 17 million by the end of 2010. Integration costs    
related to the Pohjola acquisition totalled EUR 26 million between September    
2005 and June 2008.                                                             

In May, Pohjola Bank's parent institution, OP-Pohjola Group Central Cooperative,
and TietoEnator signed an agreement to integrate and reorganise OP-Pohjola      
Group's ICT services. Integrating all of Pohjola Bank Group's ICT services      
within this joint venture will result in major efficiency gains of an annual    
estimated EUR 3 million from 2009. The related integration costs will come to   
approximately EUR 6 million.                                                    

The number of loyal customer households within Non-life Insurance increased by  
7,400 during July-September and by 27,000 during January-September, totalling   
more than 382,000 on 30 September 2008. The Group's strategic aim is to increase
this number to 450,000 by the end of 2010.                                      

Customer service took a major step in November 2007 when OP-Pohjola Group       
enhanced loyal customer benefits, related to the Pohjola integration, in such a 
way that customers have also been able to use OP bonuses earned through banking 
transactions to pay Pohjola insurance premiums. This represents a major benefit 
to the 964,000 OP-Pohjola Group loyal customers who have concentrated their     
purchases of banking and insurance services. During January-September, bonuses  
used to pay insurance premiums totalled EUR 16 million.                         

During the reporting period, Pohjola Insurance Ltd and a number of OP-Pohjola   
Group member cooperative banks built up a new operating model for banking and   
non-life insurance product sales to private customers. According to this plan,  
Pohjola Insurance's field staff for private customers (around 250 employees)    
joined the payroll of local cooperative banks on 1 October 2008.                

This new operating model enables improved customer service, especially in the   
field of cross-selling banking and non-life insurance services. The majority of 
these employees have worked on the premises of the cooperative bank branches,   
bearing in mind that these branches and Pohjola Insurance has operated under the
same roof almost everywhere in Finland. This reorganisation did not involve any 
staff reductions. Agency operations, corporate and institutional customer sales 
or the operations of other Pohjola Insurance's service channels did not undergo 
any changes.                            


Group restructuring                                                             

OKO Bank plc's Extraordinary General Meeting made the decision on changing the  
company's corporate name to Pohjola Bank plc as of 1 March 2008. In marketing   
communication and when used together with the logo, 'Pohjola' is used for short.

As of the same date, the corporate names of subsidiaries with the OKO prefix    
also changed to begin with 'Pohjola'. The parent company Pohjola Bank plc and   
its subsidiaries together form Pohjola Bank Group.                              

Based on an agreement signed by Pohjola Bank plc and Kesko Corporation on 21    
December 2007, Pohjola Bank plc bought all of the shares in K-Finance Ltd, a    
Kesko Corporation subsidiary, for around EUR 30 million, of which goodwill      
accounted for roughly EUR 12 million. On 31 January 2008, Pohjola Bank plc      
became the owner of all of K-Finance Ltd shares and the company was renamed     
Pohjola Finance Ltd. The Boards of Directors of Pohjola Bank plc and Pohjola    
Finance Ltd have approved a plan whereby Pohjola Finance Ltd is expected to     
merge with its parent company by 31 December 2008.This merger is aimed at       
simplifying the Group's corporate structure, streamlining operations and        
reducing administrative costs. Since the transaction represents a subsidiary    
merger, no merger consideration will be paid.                                   

On 22 August 2008, the Helsinki District Court issued its verdict in the        
redemption dispute between Pohjola Bank plc's and Pohjola Group plc's minority  
shareholders, confirming the redemption price of one Pohjola Group plc share at 
EUR 13.35. This concerned some 2.1% of the company's shares (about 3.4 million  
shares).                                                                        

The legal process began with an Arbitral Tribunal in 2006 once the Bank had     
acquired over 90% of Pohjola Group plc's shares. The redemption price bid by    
Pohjola Bank plc for Pohjola Group plc's shares held by minority shareholders   
was EUR 13.35. In May 2007, the Arbitral Tribunal set the redemption price at   
EUR 14.35, after which the case - following appeals by the parties - has been   
processed in the District Court.                                                


Personnel                                                                       

On 30 September, the Group had a staff of 3,193, up by 135 from 31 December     
2007. As a result of the K-Finance Ltd's acquisition, 21 employees joined the   
Group's payroll. A total of 591 employees (549) worked for Banking, 152 (154)   
for Asset Management, 2,060 employees (2,023) for Non-life Insurance in Finland 
and 266 (224) abroad, and 124 employees (108) for the Group Functions.          


Capital expenditure                                                             

Gross capital expenditure for the period totalled EUR 15 million (13), EUR 3    
million allocated to Banking, EUR 1 million to Asset Management, EUR 9 million  
to Non-life Insurance and EUR 2 million to the Group Functions. Investments in  
IT systems accounted for EUR 12 million of all capital expenditure.             


Capital adequacy                                                                

The Financial Supervision Authority granted permission to OP-Pohjola Group to   
use the Internal Ratings Based Approach (IRBA) in its capital adequacy          
measurement for credit risks as of 30 September 2008. This applies to exposures 
to corporate and institutional customers, accounting for around two-thirds of   
Pohjola Bank's minimum capital requirement. With respect to other exposure      
classes, Pohjola Bank aims to phase in the Internal Ratings Based Approach in   
such a way that the approach will next apply to retail exposures. The adoption  
of IRBA for credit risk lowered the minimum capital requirement by 14.9%,       
without taking account of transitional provisions. Due to the transitional      
provisions, the minimum capital requirement may decrease by a maximum of 10% in 
2008 and by a maximum of 20% in 2009 in comparison with the previous approach in
accordance with Basel I. The Financial Statements 2007 figures have been        
converted into comparable ones.                                                 

Since 1 January 2008, Pohjola Bank's own funds have been calculated by deducting
the total carrying amount of insurance company investment from its own funds,   
half from Tier 1 and half from Tier 2. Since the same date, the capital adequacy
requirement for operational risks has been calculated using the Basic Indicator 
Approach (BIA) and that for market risks using the Standard Approach (SA).      

The capital adequacy ratio continued to remain strong, despite vigorous growth  
in the loan portfolio and the financial-market turbulence. The first quarter saw
a particularly vigorous growth in the loan portfolio, which levelled off        
slightly during the second and third quarter. The capital adequacy ratio stood  
at 12.1% (12.8), without taking account of transitional provisions, and at 11.4%
(11.8) adjusted for the transitional provisions, as against the statutory       
minimum requirement of 8%. The ratio of Tier 1 to risk-weighted items stood at  
9.8% (10.7), without taking account of the transitional provisions, and at 9.3% 
(9.9) adjusted for the transitional provisions.                                 

In March, Pohjola Bank plc issued a EUR 170-million debenture loan, classified  
as lower Tier 2 capital, with a maturity of ten years, and in June a EUR        
50-million subordinated bond, of which a total of EUR 40 million is included in 
Tier 1 capital and EUR 10 million in upper Tier 2 capital. With the Finnish     
Financial Supervision Authority's permission, the loan may be called in at the  
earliest in June 2013.                                                          

In June, Pohjola Insurance Ltd issued a perpetual capital bond of EUR 50        
million, which may be called in at the earliest in June 2013 with the Insurance 
Supervisory Authority's permission. The bond will not be taken into account in  
the capital adequacy measurement under the Act on Credit Institutions but the   
bond, included in the solvency margin, can be fully utilised in the capital     
adequacy measurement of the insurance company.                                  

Own funds increased from EUR 1,378 million to EUR 1,482 million, due to the     
reported earnings and the abovementioned bonds issued by Pohjola Bank plc. Tier 
1 capital came to EUR 1,203 million (1,153), hybrid capital accounting for EUR  
264 million, or 15% (13). The minimum capital requirement to cover market risk  
amounted to EUR 42 million (46). On 30 September, the fair value reserve stood  
at EUR -128 million (7).                                                        

On 30 September, risk-weighted items totalled EUR 12,217, without taking account
of transitional provisions, as against EUR 10,745 a year earlier. This change   
was due mainly to the larger loan and guarantee portfolio. Adjusted for         
transitional provisions, risk-weighted commitments came to EUR 12,976 (11,705). 


Risk exposure                                                                   

The effects of the financial crisis were mainly felt in the mark-to-market      
valuations of the Group's liquidity reserves and investment income generated by 
Non-life Insurance. Because of this market disruption, determining the fair     
value of assets reliably has become a problem on a global scale. Notes and bonds
worth EUR 2.2 billion, included in OP-Pohjola Group's liquidity reserves, were  
reclassified as of 1 July 2008, in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC).  
'Change in accounting policies' on page 16 provides a more detailed description 
of this reclassification.                                                       

Determining the value of financial assets is based on mark-to-market quotes and 
the Group has not applied own valuation models, despite the illiquid market. Nor
has the Group measured any debt securities issued to the public at fair value.  
The negative mark-to-market valuations of liquidity reserves recognised in the  
income statement during the third quarter totalled EUR 50 million, EUR 21       
million recognised in the income statement and EUR 29 million in the fair value 
reserve. The negative mark-to-market valuations for Q1-3 totalled EUR 104       
million, EUR 701 million recognised in the income statement and EUR 34 million  
in the fair value reserve. Negative value changes will be reversed during the   
remaining term to maturity if the notes and bonds are not sold before their     
maturity and their issuer is not declared insolvent. Sharply falling equity     
prices, rising interest rates and widening credit spreads affected Non-life     
Insurance investment income, with the related return at fair value standing at  
-1.7% during the third quarter.                                                 

Despite the financial crisis, the financial position and liquidity remained at a
healthy level, because the financial position was boosted by the EUR 1-billion  
bond issued in August by Pohjola Bank plc and growth in OP-Pohjola Group member 
banks' deposit portfolio. Pohjola Bank plc maintains OP-Pohjola Group's         
liquidity reserves which mainly consist of notes and bonds eligible as          
collateral for central bank refinancing. These liquidity reserves plus items    
included in OP-Pohjola Group's balance sheet comprise the liquidity reserve     
eligible for central bank refinancing, which can be used to cover OP-Pohjola    
Group's wholesale funding maturities for some 24 months.                        

The Group's credit risk exposure continued to remain on a sound basis although  
impairments increased as a result of the failure of Lehman Brothers. Lehman     
Brothers' failure eroded Group earnings by EUR 16 million as a consequence of   
the EUR 10-million change in the value of bond receivables and the close-out of 
derivative contracts. Pohjola Bank Group has no exposure to the Icelandic       
government, financial institutions or companies.                                

Despite the highly exceptional market situation, the Group's risk exposure      
remained favourable. A prolonged uncertainty in the global financial markets and
its implications for the real economy will probably increase doubtful           
receivables and impairments from their current, exceptionally low levels.       


Risk exposure by Banking                                                        

Despite the greater financial-market uncertainty and strong growth in total     
exposure, risk exposure by Banking continued to remain favourable. Total        
exposures for January-September grew by EUR 3.0 billion to EUR 20.3 billion.    

The ratio of investment-grade exposure - i.e. ratings 1-5, excluding private    
customers - to total exposure remained at a healthy level, standing at 66% (69),
the share of ratings 11-12 was 0.2% (0.4) and that of non-rated exposure 3% (3).
Of corporate exposure, the share of investment-grade corporate exposure came to 
61% (65). The corporate exposure of the two lowest rating categories amounted to
EUR 45 million (70), accounting for 0.3% of total corporate exposure.           

Significant customer exposure rose to EUR 4.6 billion (3.6). The ratio of       
doubtful receivables to the loan and guarantee portfolio continued to remain    
low, standing at EUR 32 million (16), or 0.2% (0.1).                            

Net credit losses and impairments reduced January-September results by EUR 7    
million, of which the failure of Lehman Brothers represented EUR 6 million. As a
result of the financial crisis, the differences between the cash and derivatives
market prices widened strongly, credit risk margins widened and the volatility  
was high. Pohjola Bank continued to keep market risks at a moderate level in the
volatile markets.                                             

Risk exposure by Asset Management                                               

Weaker investment markets reduced assets managed by Asset Management, which is  
partly reflected in accrued net commissions and fees. In other respects, risk   
exposure by Asset Management remained favourable.                               


Risk exposure by Non-life Insurance                                             

On 30 September, Non-life Insurance solvency capital came to EUR 590 million    
(613) and the ratio of solvency capital to insurance premium revenue (solvency  
ratio) stood at 65% (72). Due to the financial crisis, the solvency ratio fell  
below the Group's internal target level of 70%, which is why Pohjola Bank plc   
capitalised its non-life insurance subsidiaries by EUR 65 million in October.   

In Non-life Insurance, January-June saw 142 (167) major or medium-sized losses  
(in excess of EUR 0.1 million), with their claims incurred retained for own     
account totalling EUR 56.8 million (62.3), while their third-quarter number came
to 47 (49) and their claims incurred retained for own account totalled EUR 15.4 
million (21.5).                                                                 

On 30 September, the investment portfolio stood at EUR 2,536 million (2,511),   
bonds and bond funds accounting for 76% (71) and equities for 14% (16). The     
fixed-income portfolio by credit rating remained healthy, considering that 85%  
of the fixed-income instruments were rated at least A-.                         

The average remaining maturity of the fixed-income portfolio was 5.3 years and  
the duration 3.6 years (3.8). Due to rising interest rates and the bearish stock
market, return on investment at fair value stood at -1.7% (1.1) in Q3 and -2.8% 
(4.6) in Q1-3.                                                                  


Risk exposure by Group Functions                                                

The Group Functions exposure totalled EUR 13.4 billion, consisting of the 
liquidity reserve and receivables from OP-Pohjola Group member banks. Almost all
of the exposure was based on investment-grade counterparties.                   

The Group Functions maintains the liquidity reserve in order to secure          
OP-Pohjola Group's liquidity. Liquidity reserves amounted to EUR 7.2 billion    
(6.1), invested primarily in notes and bonds issued by governments,             
municipalities, financial institutions and companies all showing good credit    
ratings, and in securitised receivables.                                        

Net credit losses and negative mark-to-market valuations for January-September  
totalled EUR 53 million (-25), of which Lehman Brothers accounted for EUR 10    
million.                                                                        


Credit ratings                                                                  

Pohjola Bank's credit ratings are as follows:                                   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Rating agency             | Short-term debt        | Long-term debt          |

Shares and shareholders

individuals. The holdings of major shareholders did not undergo any significant 
changes. The largest shareholder was OP-Pohjola Group Central Cooperative,

Governance and management                                                       

At its meeting held on 6 May 2008, Pohjola Bank plc's Board of Directors decided
to reorganise the Group into three business segments and the Group Functions.   
The three business segments comprise Banking, Asset Management and Non-life     
Insurance.                                                                      

Reima Rytsölä, Master of Social Sciences, was appointed Executive Vice          
President, Banking, and member of the Group Executive Committee. Previously, he 
acted as Head of Corporate Banking. Mikko Koskimies, M.Sc. (Econ. & Bus. Adm.), 
was appointed Executive Vice President, Asset Management. He sits on the Group  
Executive Committee and previously acted as Head of Asset Management. Tomi      
Yli-Kyyny, M.Sc. (Tech.), will continue as Executive Vice President, Non-life   
Insurance, and as President of Pohjola Insurance Ltd.                           

The Group Functions comprise Finance, Risk Management, Corporate Communications 
and HR Services. A new area of responsibility specified for Ilkka Salonen, CFO  
and M.Sc. (Econ. & Bus. Adm.), covers Finance, Actuarial Function, Corporate    
Planning, Central Banking and Group Treasury, and Investor Relations. He has    
also acted as Deputy CEO since 1 June 2008. CRO Jouko Pölönen, M.Sc. (Econ. &
Bus. Adm.) and eMBA, was appointed member of the Group Executive Committee, with
risk management within his remit. He reports to the President and CEO.          

Timo Ritakallio, Deputy CEO of the Group, joined another company's payroll on 1 
August 2008.                                                                    

From 1 January 2009, Pohjola Insurance Ltd will adopt a modernised              
organisational structure that better meets the needs of its current business    
model. As part of this change, Helena Walldén, Senior Executive Vice President  
of Corporate Customers and member of Pohjola Bank plc's Group Executive         
Committee, submitted a letter of resignation on 23 September 2008. Her service  
contract with the company will terminate in the spring of 2009.                 

As a result, the Group Executive Committee comprises President and CEO Mikael   
Silvennoinen (Chairman), Mikko Koskimies, Jouko Pölönen, Reima Rytsölä, Ilkka   
Salonen and Tomi Yli-Kyyny.                                                     


Events after the reporting period                                               

The seven European banks that make up the Unico Banking Group (Crédit Agricole, 
DZ BANK, ICCREA Holding, Pohjola Bank plc, Rabobank, Raiffeisen Zentralbank     
(RZB) and Raiffeisen Switzerland) have announced to jointly help stabilise and  
restore confidence in the European interbank funding market. The banks have     
agreed on reciprocal unsecured interbank credit lines of up to three months,    
with the total funding volume expected to range from 10 to 15 and billion euros.


The redemption dispute over Pohjola Group plc shares has been submitted to the  
Court of Appeal. The special representative of Pohjola Group plc's minority     
shareholders and some individual minority shareholders have appealed against the
Helsinki District Court's decision of 22 August 2008 on the redemption price of 
Pohjola Group plc shares. Based on the District Court's decision, the pre-share 
redemption price of EUR 13.35 remained the same as previously bid by Pohjola    
Bank plc. The dispute applies to around 2.1% of the company's shares (about 3.4 
million shares).                                                                

Pohjola Bank plc has also appealed against this decision, pertaining to legal   
expenses sentenced to be paid by the adverse parties, interest confirmed on the 
redemption price and some matters related to legal proceedings.                 




Outlook towards the end of the year                                             

Demand for corporate loans is expected to grow vigorously during the fourth     
quarter, because companies find it much harder to raise capital directly from   
capital markets.  Margins for new loans are expected to continue rising and,    
consequently, improve net interest income. However, the recent capital-market   
uncertainty has increased the risk of Banking not being able to achieve the same
earnings level as a year ago. Accordingly, the division's earnings before tax   
are expected to be at the same level as a year ago or lower (previous forecast: 
at the same level as in 2007). Risk exposure is projected to remain favourable. 

As a result of unusually weak developments in investment markets, assets managed
by Asset Management continued their reduction during the third quarter,         
decreasing from the June-end EUR 28.8 billion to the September-end EUR 27.3     
billion. As a result, Asset Management expects its earnings before tax to be at 
the same level as in the previous year or lower (previous forecast: at the same 
level as in 2007).        

Non-life Insurance recorded a lower operating combined ratio during the third   
quarter than a year ago. The trend in major losses during the third quarter     
appeared more favourable than a year earlier. Enabled by strong growth, the     
expense ratio continued to improve in the third quarter, with the result that   
the operating combined ratio for January-September was better than a year ago.  
In Non-life Insurance, the operating combined ratio is estimated to vary between
90% and 94% (previous forecast: 91-95%) if the number of major losses is not    
unusually large during the fourth quarter. Due to the weak developments in      
investment markets, investment income from Non-life Insurance is anticipated to 
remain considerably lower than in the previous year.                            

Following the reclassification of bonds and notes, results will not change as   
dramatically as before, which is why the Group Functions expects its earnings to
be at the same level as in 2007 (previous forecast: better than in 2007).       

Due to lower investment income, the Group expects to record lower earnings for  
2008 than the year before.                                                      

Uncertainty associated with the operating environment has grown further. Should 
the forward-looking statements and assumptions about the near-term outlook come 
true, the main risks involved are associated with developments in credit        
spreads, interest rates, share prices and impairments, as well as the general   
operating environment. Although developments in the general operating           
environment are beyond the Group management's control, the management may       
contribute to the effects of interest-rate changes and the equity market on     
investment and trading by investing assets securely, diversifying risks,        
promoting its personnel's professional skills and managing risks effectively. In
addition, the management may contribute to the appropriate selection and pricing
of customer-specific risk and, consequently, the Group's financial performance. 

All forward-looking statements in this Interim Report expressing the            
management's expectations, beliefs, estimates, forecasts, projections and       
assumptions are based on the current view of the future financial performance of
Pohjola Bank Group and its various functions, and actual results may differ     
materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.              


Earnings by business line                                                       

The Group adopted a new organisational structure in May with the result that its
financial reporting follows the new business segments.  Its organisation        
currently comprises the following three business segments and the Group         
Functions: Banking, Asset Management and Non-life Insurance. Pohjola Bank       
Group's comparatives for the four quarters of 2007 and the first quarter of     
2008, based on the new segment reporting presentation, were published in June   
and can be found under Media>Releases>Company releases on the company's website.

The Group will modify the financial targets set for its business segments in    
2007 based on the new segments and publish these targets by the end of the      
current year.

More detailed segment information can be found in the table section below.      


Banking                                                                         

Banking consists of Corporate Banking, Markets and Baltic Banking.              

January-September                                                               

Banking recorded earnings of EUR 88 million (97) before tax and increased its   
loan portfolio by almost EUR 2.4 billion, or 26%, from the level of 30 September
a year ago. In customer business, this good performance was particularly        
reflected in growth of EUR 28 million, or 31%, in net interest income. However, 
the segment's earnings performance was eroded by the financial-market           
instability, which was reflected in the decrease of EUR 2 million in securities 
brokerage fees and that of over EUR 4 million in issuance fees. As a result of  
the weaker market liquidity, income from trading fell during the third quarter  
in particular. In the meantime, however, margins generated by customer trading  
in fixed-income, derivative and foreign exchange products rose by EUR 1 million 
year on year. Banking earnings were also eroded by the credit loss of EUR 6     
million resulting from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s derivative receivable.   

Financial-market instability considerably widened the credit spreads of bonds   
issued by Finnish companies, causing the Group to recognise EUR 10 million in   
negative mark-to-market valuations in the income statement. Earnings excluding  
these negative value changes in domestic corporate bonds came to EUR 98 million,
which is at the previous year's level.                                          

Operating return on equity stood at 10.9% (15.0) and the cost/income ratio at   
44.8% (40.0). Without the negative value changes in notes and bonds, operating  
return on equity would have reached 12.2% and the cost/income ratio 39.9%.      

The loan portfolio grew by 21% from the year-start level, standing at EUR 11.3  
billion (9.4). The acquisition of Pohjola Finance increased the portfolio by EUR
240 million.                                                                    

Year on year, net interest income rose by 31% to EUR 117 million (89). Net      
impairments of receivables were EUR 7 million (2).                              

Despite the vigorous growth in the loan portfolio, the Group's risk exposure    
remained favourable. On 30 September, the average level of corporate loan       
portfolio's margins stood at 0.86% (0.80).                                      

At the end of August, the market share of euro-denominated corporate loans was  
17.8%, which is 0.5 percentage points higher than at the end of December 2007.  

Net commissions and fees recorded by Banking remained at the same level as a    
year ago, totalling EUR 47 million. Net commissions and fees related to loans   
and guarantees improved by a total of EUR 6 million.                            

Other operating income increased to EUR 19 million (13), stemming from higher   
lease income.                                                               

Expenses rose to EUR 77 million (66). Year on year, the number of Banking       
employees rose by 48 and personnel costs by less than EUR 1 million. Personnel  
costs accounted for 38% (43) of total operating expenses. IT costs and          
depreciation/amortisation grew by almost EUR 9 million, due mainly to heavy     
investments in the development of systems for finance company products and      
growth of over EUR 5 million in depreciation on leases.                         

The Baltic Banking performance was in line with expectations. The integration of
Pohjola Bank plc and its Baltic units' operations has proceeded as planned.     

July-September                                                                  

Banking recorded earnings of EUR 24 million before tax (32). Fair value changes 
in domestic corporate bonds weakened third-quarter earnings by less than 3      
million. As a result of the weaker market liquidity, income from trading fell   
during the third quarter. In addition, Banking recognised a credit loss of EUR 6
million resulting from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s derivative receivable.   

Operating return on equity stood 8.1% (14.1) and the cost/income ratio at 41%   
(39). Without the negative value changes in domestic corporate bonds, operating 
return on equity would have reached 9.1% and the cost/income ratio 39.5%.       

The loan portfolio grew at a faster rate than in the previous quarter, showing  
an increase of over 5% against 3% reported during the second quarter. The       
corporate loan portfolio's margins were higher than in the second quarter.      

Year on year, net interest income rose by 53% to EUR 43 million (28).           

Net commissions and fees were at the same level as in the previous year.        
Commission income from loans and guarantees grew by EUR 2 million whereas income
from securities brokerage and issuance declined by EUR 2 million.               

Other operating income increased to EUR 6 million (5), due largely to higher    
lease income.                                                                   

Expenses rose by 5% to EUR 22 million (21), with EUR 2 million attributable to  
growth in depreciation on leases.                                               


Asset Management                                                                

January-September                                                               

Earnings before tax for the period amounted to EUR 10 million (14).             

The operating cost/income ratio stood at 60% (54).                              

Owing to money-market fund redemptions and bearish equity markets, assets under 
management on 30 September totalled EUR 27.3 billion (31.5), institutional      
customers accounting for EUR 16.4 billion (17.5), OP mutual funds for EUR 10.1  
billion (13.1) and Pohjola Private for EUR 0.8 billion (0.9).                   

The State Pension Fund (VER) will outsource its investment portfolio management 
service and systems management to Pohjola Asset Management, based on a          
competitive tender procedure in the spring, and this service will be up and     
running by the end of 2008.                                                     


July-September                                                                  

Earnings before tax amounted to EUR 3 million (5).                              

The operating cost/income ratio stood at 58% (50).                              

Assets under management diminished by EUR 1.5 billion as a result of market     
value changes and fund redemptions.                                             


Non-life Insurance                                                              

January-September                                                               

Earnings                                                                        

Earnings before tax came to EUR 73 million (125).                               

The balance on technical account before amortisation on intangible assets stood 
at EUR 69 million (45) and net investment income was EUR 61 million (126). Other
income reported a year ago included EUR 6 million in capital gains on the sale  
of the marine hull insurance portfolio.                                         

Operating return on equity was -9.1% (27.7).                                    

Insurance operations                                                            

Insurance premium revenue rose by 9% to EUR 697 million (639).                  

Growth remained strong within the Private Customers division, based on          
cooperation within OP-Pohjola Group. The number of loyal customer households    
increased by 27,087. Like-for-like insurance premium revenue from Private       
Customers improved by 12% to EUR 287 million.                                   

Within the Corporate Customers division, insurance premium revenue amounted to  
EUR 366 million, up by 7% on a like-for-like basis.                             

Premium revenue generated by the Baltic business increased by 6% to EUR 44      
million.                                                                        

Claims incurred increased moderately although strong growth in the insurance    
portfolio added to the number of losses. Claims incurred (excl. loss adjustment 
expenses) rose by 5% to EUR 441 million (419) and the risk ratio stood at 63.4  
(65.5). In particular, developments in the claims incurred due to severe traffic
and industrial accidents were favourable. The number of major losses in excess  
of EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.5 million in pension liabilities) totalled 142 (167), 
accounting for EUR 57 million (62) of total claims incurred.                    

Operating expenses and loss adjustment expenses showed controlled growth,       
totalling EUR 186 million (176). The cost ratio developed favourably, standing  
at 26.7% (27.6).                                                                

Insurance profitability improved as a result of vigorous growth, favourable     
claims developments and controlled growth in expenses.  The operating combined  
ratio was 90.0% (93.0).                                                         

Investment operations                                                           

On September 30, the fair value of Non-life Insurance investments amounted to   
EUR 2.5 billion (2.5), with equities accounting for 14% (16), bonds and bond    
funds for 69% (69), money market instruments for 7% (2) and other investments   
for 11% (12).                                                                   

Net investment income recognised in the income statement amounted to EUR 61     
million (126). Due to the market situation, net investment income at fair value 
reached EUR -78 million (119). Return on these investments at fair value stood  
at -2.8% (4.6).

Earnings                                                                        

Earnings before tax came to EUR 33 million (42).                                

The balance on technical account before amortisation on intangible assets stood 
at EUR 46 million (23) and net investment income was EUR 6 million (38).        

Operating return on equity was -7.3% (24.1).

Insurance premium revenue rose by 11% to EUR 241 million (217).                 

Growth remained steady within Private Customers, like-for-like insurance premium
revenue improving by 12% to EUR 101 million. The number of loyal customer       
households increased by 7,406.                                                  

Like-for-like insurance premium revenue from Corporate Customers rose by 11% to 
EUR 125 million. The periodisation of foreign reinsurance differing from that a 
year ago contributed to this improvement.                                       

Insurance premium revenue reported by the Baltic business increased by 5% to EUR
15 million.                                                                     

Claims incurred (excl. loss adjustment expenses) fell by 3% to EUR 136 million  
(140) and the risk ratio stood at 56.5 (64.5). Claims incurred due to major     
losses were lower than a year earlier. The number of major losses in excess of  
EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.5 million in pension liabilities) totalled 47 (49),      
accounting for EUR 15 million (22) of total claims incurred.                    

Operating expenses and loss adjustment expenses were EUR 58 million (54) and the
loss ratio stood at 24.2 (25.0).                                                

The operating combined ratio was 80.7 (89.5).                                   

Investment operations                                                           

Net investment income recognised in the income statement amounted to EUR 6      
million (38). Net investment income at fair value reached EUR -46 million (32). 
Return on these investments at fair value stood at -1.7% (1.1).                 


Group Functions                                                                 

The Group Functions comprise Finance, Risk Management, Corporate Communications 
and HR Services.                                                                

January-September                                                               

Pre-tax loss was EUR 57 million (loss of EUR 15 million). The earnings          
performance was eroded by an impairment of EUR 7 million recognised on bond     
receivables from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., a credit loss of EUR 3 million  
recognised on guarantee receivables and the EUR 53-million negative             
mark-to-market valuations (-25) of liquidity reserves.                          

The one-billion-euro mortgage-backed bond, issued by OP Mortgage Bank, was sold 
to European investors in May, strengthening the mortgage bank's position as the 
financier of OP-Pohjola Group retail banks. For this reason and due to growth in
deposits with the OP-Pohjola Group retail banks, the need for financing from    
Pohjola Bank plc decreased, with the result that Pohjola Bank plc's net         
receivables from the OP-Pohjola Group retail banks totalled EUR 0.4 billion on  
30 September, which was EUR 1.9 billion less than on 31 December 2007.          

Growth in the loan portfolio was mainly funded from debt markets and the        
liquidity position strengthened by EUR 1.2 billion in July-September. During the
period, notes and bonds generated EUR 1.4 million in capital. In addition, in   
March Pohjola Bank plc issued a EUR 170-million debenture loan, classified as   
lower Tier 2 capital, which will mature in 2018. Debt securities issued to the  
public totalled EUR 14.1 billion (12.9). In June, Pohjola Bank plc issued a     
perpetual capital bond of EUR 50 million, subscribed by OP-Pohjola Group Central
Cooperative in its entirety.                                                    

Earnings in the first quarter a year ago were burdened by the liquidated damages
ruled by the Arbitral Tribunal concerning the shareholder agreement dispute over
Nooa Savings Bank Ltd. This lowering effect amounted to EUR 10 million.         

July-September                                                                  

Pre-tax loss was EUR 17 million (loss of EUR 23 million). The earnings          
performance was eroded by an impairment of EUR 7 million recognised on bond     
receivables from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and by a credit loss of EUR 3    
million recognised on guarantee receivables. In addition, negative              
mark-to-market valuations of EUR 11 million (24) in liquidity reserves were     
recognised in the Group Functions results and the fair value reserve diminished 
by EUR 25 million (-3).                                                         




Changes in accounting policies                                                  

Pohjola Bank Group prepared this Interim Report in accordance with IAS 34.      

Since 1 January 2008, Pohjola Bank Group has applied IFRS 8 Operating Segments. 

The definition of operating segments under IFRS 8 is based on financial         
information regularly monitored by the decision-maker in charge of the segment's
operations. The Group has adopted segment reporting in accordance with the new  
organisation, based on the decision made by Pohjola Bank plc's Board of         
Directors on 6 May 2008, the new operating segments being Banking, Asset        
Management, Non-life Insurance and the Group Functions.                         
As a result of the IFRS 8 adoption, the Group discloses information on its      
operating segments as required by the standard. In accordance with management   
reporting, as supplementary information the Group discloses the key indicators  
of its business divisions under the operating segments. Comparatives have been  
changed correspondingly.                                                        

Pohjola Bank plc is tasked with maintaining OP-Pohjola Group's liquidity        
reserve. During the third quarter, Pohjola Bank reclassified some of the notes  
included in this liquidity reserve, with a view to providing a clearer picture  
of the actual purpose of notes. This reclassification was enabled by Commission 
Regulation (EC) No. 1004/2008 of 15 October 2008 applying to IAS 39 and IFRS 7  
and the Regulation is aimed at making it easier to reclassify certain financial 
instruments in rare circumstances. The underlying reason for adopting this      
Regulation lay in the current financial turmoil which is why reliable market    
prices were not available to all financial instruments on 30 September.         
Companies have been allowed to reclassify certain financial instruments since 1 
July 2008.                                                                      

Reclassifying financial instruments is based on their fair values on 1 July     
2008. The carrying amount of the reclassified notes totalled EUR 2.2 billion andthey were upon initial recognition classified as financial assets held for      
trading. With a view to providing clearer financial statements information, in  
the financial statements for 2007 these notes were reclassified out of the      
financial assets held for trading category into the Financial assets at fair    
value through profit or loss at inception category, under which they have been  
presented in the interim reports published thereafter.                          

The reclassification was implemented in such a way that EUR 0.1 billion in      
financial assets held for trading was reclassified into the Loans and other     
receivables category, EUR 1.2 billion into the Available-for-sale financial     
assets category and EUR 1.0 billion into the Financial assets held to maturity  
category. Financial assets held to maturity comprise notes and the Group has the
intention and ability to hold them until maturity. Notes reclassified as Loans  
and other receivables comprise other long-term debt instruments with fixed or   
determinable cash flows and any fair value is not available to them in an active
market. Notes classified as Loans and other receivables or Financial assets held
to maturity are recognised at cost. Available-for-sale financial assets are     
recognised at fair value in the balance sheet, and any subsequent changes in the
fair value are recognised in the fair value reserve under shareholders' equity. 
If there is objective evidence of an impaired note, the reclassified note must  
be tested for impairment in accordance with Pohjola Bank Group's risk management
principles.                                                                     

If the Group were not allowed to reclassify these financial assets, its fair    
value reserve would have been around EUR 7 million higher and its earnings after
tax would have been some EUR 30-40 million lower. The parent company has        
complied with the aforementioned accounting policies in its financial           
statements. The reclassification has no effect on the results recorded for      
previous periods.                                                               

Further amendments to IAS 39 and IFRS 7 are pending, which the Group is         
following closely.

Key ratios for Non-life Insurance                                               

The key ratio formulae for Non-life Insurance are based on regulations issued by
the Insurance Supervisory Authority, using the corresponding IFRS sections to   
the extent applicable. The ratios are calculated using expenses by function     
applied by non-life insurance companies, which are not presented on the same    
principle as in the Consolidated Income Statement.

Own funds and capital adequacy measurement is based on approaches under Basel   
II. Pohjola Bank has used the Internal Ratings Based Approach for corporate     
exposures. Figures for previous periods have been converted into comparable     
ones.                                                                           

OP-Pohjola Group's capital adequacy ratio under the Act on Credit Institutions  
stood at 12.4% and the ratio of Tier 1 to total risk-weighted items at 12.4%.   
OP-Pohjola Group's capital adequacy ratio calculated using the consolidation    
method, under the Act on the Supervision of Financial and Insurance             
Conglomerates, was 1.48.

*) The item includes EUR 10 million in liquidated damages, including interest   
and expenses, paid by OKO to savings banks on the basis of an arbitral award.

Pohjola and savings banks as a result of combining the operations of OP Bank    
Group and Pohjola.

Report on review of Pohjola Bank plc's Interim Report for the period 1          
January-30 September 2008                                                       

To Pohjola Bank plc's Board of Directors                                        

Introduction                                                                    

We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet as of 30 September 2008, the    
income statement, the statement of changes in equity and the cash flow statement
of Pohjola Bank plc for the nine-month period then ended, as well as a summary  
of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes to the financial 
statements. The Board of Directors and the President and CEO are responsible for
the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in  
accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as      
adopted by the EU, and other Finnish rules and regulations governing the        
preparation of interim reports. Based on our review we express an opinion on    
this interim report in accordance with chapter 2, section 5a, subsection 7 of   
the Finnish Securities Markets Act.                                             

Scope of review                                                                 

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements   
2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent      
Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of    
making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting 
matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is       
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the      
standards on auditing and other generally accepted auditing practices and       
therefore the procedures performed in a review do not enable to obtain a level  
of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be  
identified in an audit. Accordinly, we do not express an audit opinion.         

Opinion                                                                         

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe
that the Interim Report does not give a true and fair view of the entity's      
financial position as of 30 September 2008 and the result of its operations and 
cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, in accordance with the         
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU, and   
other applicable rules and regulations governing interim financial reporting    
preparation in Finland.                                                         


Helsinki, 6 November 2008                                                       

KPMG OY AB
