Insider administration

The company complies with the Guidelines for Insiders issued by the Helsinki Stock Exchange.

Director holdings

The company’s permanent public insiders comprise the Board members, the CEO, the Deputy CEO as well as the auditors. All permanent public insiders and the statutory information about them, their related parties and the entities controlled by them or in which they exercise influence, have been entered into the company’s public insider register which is published on the company website.

Ruukki Group imposes a restriction on trading for insiders which forbids trading with the company’s shares for fourteen days before the publication of financial reports. Compliance with the insider regulations is monitored by taking samples at certain intervals of trading by insiders in the company’s shares.

Company employees

In addition to the public insider register, the company holds a company-specific insider register of persons who regularly receive information that can have material impact on the value of the company’s security. These persons include all Ruukki Group Plc employees (excluding those belonging to the public insider register), the boards and managing directors of the Group’s significant subsidiaries, as well as all other Group employees or third-party service providers who regularly obtain insider information.

Project-specific insider list

When necessary, the company sets up a separate project-specific insider register. Project-specific insiders are those who, in connection with the insider project, obtain information about the company that might have material impact on the value of the company’s shares if it were published. The establishment of a project is decided by the Board or the CEO.
