Sensitivity Analysis of the Capital Position
The total sensitivity of equity is shown in table 'Sensitivity analysis of capitalization to market risks, If P&C, Mandatum Life and Sampo plc, 31 December 2011' separately for the insurance subsidiaries together with the corresponding effect on the discounted value of liabilities and adjusted solvency capital. For example, a rise in interest rates would reduce the values of financial instruments causing a fall in the Sampo Group's equity. On the other hand, the effect on adjusted solvency capital would be positive due to the fact that value of technical provisions would fall as a result of applying a higher discount rate.
