Sampo reports A share buybacks in week 31/2026 under EUR 350 million programme
Sampo plc disclosed week 31/2026 purchases under its existing A-share buyback programme (up to €350m), increasing treasury shares to 20.19m (0.76% of shares outstanding). The update is routine capital return execution, marginally tightening free float and supporting per-share metrics, but it carries limited read-through for broader risk assets given no change to programme size, governance authorisation, or capital policy.
