Marja Nykänen appointed as Co-Chair of Financial Stability Board’s Regional Consultative Group for Europe
This appointment reinforces Finland’s active role in fostering international financial stability.
Deputy Governor of the Bank of Finland Marja Nykänen has been appointed as Co-Chair Regional Consultative Group for Europe at the Financial Stability Board (FSB) with effect from 1 July 2025. The other Co-Chair is Antoine Martin, Vice Chairman of the Governing Board of the Swiss National Bank. All of the FSB’s Regional Consultative Groups have two co-chairs, each from a different country. This appointment reinforces Finland’s active role in fostering international financial stability.
“It is an honour to chair the Financial Stability Board's Europe group together with my Swiss colleague. The Board has a key role in maintaining international financial stability. Having already served as a member of the group, I have seen what can be achieved through international cooperation in fostering financial stability. I believe that in my new role as Co-Chair, I can build on this experience,” says Marja Nykänen.
The task of the Financial Stability Board is to promote financial stability through cooperation and coordination. The Board brings together national authorities and international banking and financial sector entities and, through its members, strengthens the stability of global financial markets.

Det är inte läge att skjuta upp lösningarna för Finlands offentliga finanser19.12.2025 11:00:00 EET | Pressmeddelande
Finlands offentliga finanser befinner sig alltjämt långt från balans. För att vända skuldsättningsutvecklingen krävs en betydande konsolidering av de offentliga finanserna och investeringar i tillväxt. Höjningen av de nödvändiga försvarsutgifterna försvårar den offentligfinansiella konsolideringen. Inflationen i euroområdet ligger på målet och ekonomin har vuxit något snabbare än förutsett.
Suomen julkisen talouden ratkaisuja ei kannata lykätä19.12.2025 11:00:00 EET | Tiedote
Suomen julkinen talous on edelleen kaukana tasapainosta. Velkaantumiskehityksen kääntäminen vaatii merkittävää julkisen talouden sopeuttamista ja investointeja kasvuun. Välttämättömien puolustusmenojen kasvattaminen vaikeuttaa tasapainottamista. Euroalueella inflaatio on tavoitteessa ja talous on kasvanut hieman ennustettua paremmin.
Finland’s decisions on public finances should not be postponed19.12.2025 11:00:00 EET | Press release
Finland’s public finances are still far from being in balance. Reversing the rise in public debt will require considerable fiscal consolidation and investments in growth. An expansion of essential defence spending will hamper the fiscal adjustment process. Inflation in the euro area is at target, and growth in the euro area economy has been slightly higher than forecast.
Återhämtningen i Finlands ekonomi går sakta framåt19.12.2025 11:00:00 EET | Pressmeddelande
Finlands ekonomi lämnar snart perioden med svag tillväxt bakom sig, men ingen kraftig tillväxt väntas under åren framöver. Inflationen är fortsatt måttfull och sysselsättningen stiger gradvis. Den stramare handelspolitiken och globala politiska osäkerheter samt eventuella åtgärder för konsolidering av de offentliga finanserna kastar en skugga över tillväxtutsikterna för ekonomin i Finland. De offentliga finanserna uppvisar alltjämt ett djupt underskott.
Suomen talouden elpyminen etenee maltillisesti19.12.2025 11:00:00 EET | Tiedote
Suomen talouden hitaan kasvun jakso on jäämässä taakse, mutta voimakasta kasvua ei lähivuosina ole odotettavissa. Inflaatio pysyy maltillisena ja työllisyys kohenee vähitellen. Talouden kasvunäkymiä varjostavat kauppapolitiikan kiristyminen ja kansainvälisen politiikan epävarmuudet sekä mahdolliset julkisen talouden sopeutustoimet. Julkinen talous säilyy syvästi alijäämäisenä.
