If the planned measures are implemented, they may impact a maximum of 30 jobs. It is estimated that the changes will result in a corresponding number of new or changed positions. 

Aktia will initiate change negotiations to strengthen excellent customer experience in all customer segments in accordance with its new strategy. The purpose of the plans is to clarify the structure of the organisation, focus activities and strengthen competencies to meet future needs.   

The negotiations will concern the banking business and the credit risk management unit. In the banking business, the negotiations mainly concern managerial roles. The negotiations will concern a total of 37 employees. Some of the changes related to the positions can be implemented under current employment contracts. However, some positions may change to such an extent that the current position will be discontinued. It is estimated that the changes will result in a corresponding number of new or changed jobs. These will primarily be offered to people whose current position is changed or discontinued.  

“The reorganisation of our operations is the next step towards offering the best possible customer experience and promoting wider access to our Private Banking services. With these changes, we will be able to focus more on our important Premium customer segment and offer Premium customers even more personal service. In this way, we ensure that our organisational structure, operating model, as well as the skills and working methods of our employees support customer and business needs in the best possible way in accordance with our strategy. At the same time, we strengthen our competitiveness and create preconditions for long-term success," says Anssi Huhta, Executive Vice President of Aktia's Banking Business.
