OUTLOOK FOR CONSTRUCTION
The global economic growth is expected to continue and to reach five per cent
this year. The slow down of the USA economic growth is compensated by the
economic growth in other areas. The favourable development in the euro area will
continue, and according to the Ministry of Finance production in the area will
increase by 2.5 per cent this and next year. The European Central Bank raised
the reference rate to four per cent in June.
The economic growth in Finland remains good and still surpasses the growth in
Europe. The Ministry of Finance estimates the upward cycle in Finland to
continue to be stronger and lasting longer than was anticipated earlier, the
growth in the GDP is estimated to be 4.4 per cent in 2007 and 3.3 per cent in
2008. The economic boom is predicted to continue till 2008.
The outlook for construction and real estate markets in Finland is expected to
remain positive, even though the growth rate will slow down next year and the
disturbance in the financial market which started in the USA increases the
uncertainty in the markets. The housing production is estimated to go only
slightly down from the present level. This year 32 000 residential units are
estimated to be started up. Selling times for dwellings have lengthened and the
rise in housing prices has steadied especially outside the growth centres.
Construction of office and commercial premises is expected to remain brisk.
Favourable economic situation and the completion of Vuosaari harbour keep also
the construction of industrial and warehouse premises brisk in the Greater
Helsinki area, in particular.
The growth centres in southern Finland, in particular, suffer from shortages in
skilled labour. Strong demand brings shortage in supply of certain materials.
Shortcoming for the availability of construction subcontracting and materials is
estimated to ease off during the last part of the year.
The economic growth in Estonia is decelerating after many years of growth. The
Bank of Estonia forecasts an 8.4 per cent economic growth this year and 6.5 per
cent in 2008. The situation in the Estonian residential market has weakened and
the lowered demand has caused a decline in the price level. The Bank of Latvia
reports a strong economic growth in Latvia during the second quarter of the year
showing an 11 per cent growth. However, there are some uncertainties concerning
the predictability of the economic growth in the Baltic. Russian construction
market is estimated to grow around 10 per cent annually in the near future.
Increase in the cost level as well as shortage in skilled personnel set
challenges. Demand for both business premises and housing is estimated to stay
high in Russia.

RISKS, RISK MANAGEMENT AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
General economic trends and changes in customers' operating environments have an
immediate effect on the construction and property markets. A change in the
general interest level has a direct impact on both SRV's actual cash flow from
operating activities and financing costs.
SRV's revenue is generated by construction projects, and the company's result
depends on the profitability of individual projects as well as their progress.
The recognition date of the developer contracting projects depends also on the
percentage of sold premises in projects. Construction is subject to significant
risks relating to subcontracting and deliveries, their control underlines the
need for long-span planning. Project management contracting model requires
skilled and competent personnel. Warranty and liability obligations related to
construction can span up to ten years.
The financial risks related to the SRV Group's business are liquidity, interest
rate, foreign exchange, credit and counterparty risks, which have been presented
in the notes to the 2006 financial statements.
Group's risk management is carried out in line with the Group's operations
system and control is exercised in accordance with the Group strategy approved
by the Board of Directors of the Group's parent company. The Group's President
and CEO has overall responsibility for the risk management. SRV also makes every
effort to cover operational risks by means of insurance and contractual terms. A
more detailed account of SRV's risks, risk management and corporate governance
policies has been disclosed in the 2006 Annual Report and financial statements.
