Finlands Banks interimsprognos: Den positiva trenden i Finlands ekonomi fortsätter15.9.2026 07:00:00 EEST | Pressmeddelande
Den ekonomiska tillväxten i Finland har tagit fart pådriven av export och investeringar, och under de närmaste åren väntas ekonomin växa i betydligt raskare takt än under de senaste åren. I takt med att ekonomin stärks börjar den ihållande höga arbetslösheten gradvis sjunka. Energipriserna driver tillfälligt upp inflationen, men omfattningen av effekterna beror i väsentlig grad på hur länge störningarna i energitillgången varar.
Suomen Pankin väliennuste: Suomen talouden hyvä vire jatkuu15.9.2026 07:00:00 EEST | Tiedote
Suomen talouskasvu on voimistunut viennin ja investointien vetämänä, ja kasvun arvioidaan jatkuvan lähivuosina aiempia vuosia selvästi ripeämpänä. Talouden vahvistuessa huomattavana pysynyt työttömyys alkaa vähitellen pienentyä. Energian hinnat kiihdyttävät inflaatiota väliaikaisesti, mutta niiden vaikutusten laajuus riippuu oleellisesti energian tarjontahäiriöiden kestosta.
