The variable remuneration of the CEO and Deputy CEO consists of share-based incentive schemes. The purpose of the system is to combine the objectives of owners and executives to increase the Company's value in the long term, as well as to commit key persons to implement the Company's strategy, objectives and the Company's long-term interest and provide them with a competitive reward system based on the earning and accumulation of shares in the Company. The share-based incentive scheme is in force until further notice and the Board of Directors always decides individually on the earning periods, participants, allocations and criteria to be established in the scheme.
In the financial year 2023, the CEO and Deputy CEO were part of two sharebased incentive schemes. Individuals had no other variable reward schemes during the earning period.
On 17 February 2020, the Company's Board of Directors decided to establish a share-based incentive scheme for the Group's key personnel. The share-based incentive scheme 2020–2021 had one two-year earning period, 1 January 2020 – 31 December 2021. The target group of the scheme included a maximum of 15 key employees, including the Company's CEO and Deputy CEO.
The reward of the scheme was based on a comparable cost-income ratio, growth in operating income (in comparable figures) and customer and employee satisfaction. The reward will be paid after the end of the earning period within approximately three years in four installments. Shares paid as a reward may not be transferred during the one-year waiting period set for the shares.
The maximum amount of remuneration payable for the entire earning period in shares for the CEO is 141,935 shares and respectively for the Deputy CEO 59,797 shares.
The CEO and Deputy CEO of the Company shall own at least 50 percent of the net shares paid to him/her on the basis of the scheme until the value of the CEO's share ownership in the Company corresponds to the value of his gross yearly salary and, respectively, the deputy's share ownership in the Company corresponds to a total of half the value of his gross annual salary. This amount of shares shall be owned as long as the CEO's relationship or the role of Deputy CEO continues.
On 24 February 2022, the Company's Board of Directors confirmed 336,150 shares of the 2020–2021 share-based incentive scheme for payment, including the contribution to be paid in cash. The target group of the scheme included 10 key people.
On 24 February 2022, the Company's Board of Directors decided to set up a new share-based incentive scheme for key members of the Group. The Board of Directors decided to establish a single two-year earning period for 2022–2023 under the share-based incentive scheme. The target group of the system consists of up to 30 key people, including the Company's CEO and members of the Management Team. The fees payable under the scheme correspond to a total of 400,000 OmaSp shares, including the share payable in cash.
The targets for the earning period 2022 –2023 were: comparable cost /income ratio, comparable growth in operating income, credit arrears, accumulation of ECL amount, and customer and employee satisfaction. The reward will be paid after the end of the earning period within about five years in six instalments. Shares paid as a reward may not be disposed of during the one -year waiting period for the shares.
The CEO of a Company and the member of the Management Team shall own at least 50% of the net shares paid to him/her under the scheme until the value of the CEO's total shareholding in the Company corresponds to the value of his/her gross annual salary and, accordingly, the shareholding of a member of the Management Team in the Company equals a total of half the value of his/her gross annual salary. This number of shares must be owned as long as the CEO's employment or membership of the Management Team continues.
The terms of the share -based incentive scheme follow the principles of variable remuneration outlined in the Company's remuneration policy.
The Company has not deviated from its remuneration policy during the financial year 202 3. The Company's Board believes that the Company has no need to temporarily deviate from the remuneration policy presented to the AGM on 15 June 2020, to ensure the Company's long -term interests.
No changes have been made to the remuneration policy during the financial year 2023. The remuneration policy will be discussed at the 2024 Annual General Meeting.
