How to read this
Approved fee is the AGM-set annual rate for the role. Amount paid is what the director received in the fiscal year — including meeting fees and other components when reported.
Many Finnish boards settle a share of fees in company shares (often around 40–50%). Where the report discloses that portion, it appears alongside the cash figure.
