Den finansiella sektorn i Finland är kapitalstark – många osäkerhetsfaktorer i omvärlden kvarstår11.12.2025 09:45:00 EET | Pressmeddelande

Trots förväntningarna har Finlands ekonomi inte tagit fart, fastän bland annat näringslivets förtroende har fortsatt att stiga. Utöver apatin i ekonomin hotas den finansiella sektorns omvärld av de svaga offentliga finanserna, geopolitiska risker och oron kring värdepappersprisernas hållbarhet. Kapitaltäckningen i banksektorn i Finland var dock fortsatt stark under tredje kvartalet, fastän nedgången i räntenettot ledde till en resultatförsämring. Också arbetspensions- och försäkringssektorerna var fortsatt kapitalstarka tack vare ökade placeringsintäkter, då marknadssentimentet trots riskerna var huvudsakligen fortsatt positivt.
