We publish short-term economic forecasts in spring and autumn. In addition, revisions are made between forecasts, and researchers comment monthly on economic developments on our website.

Forecasting activities are supervised by Head of Forecasting Juho Koistinen.

Latest forecasts

Sample families

Our sample family calculations examine how the development of income, taxes and similar payments impacts the purchasing power of seven different sample families. View the latest edition of our Sample Families/Esimerkkiperheet publication. (In Finnish)

  • The purchasing power of a high-income family returns to a growth path after two weak years
  • The stabilization of interest rate increases brings relief to a white-collar family
  • Among the example families, the purchasing power of a worker's family develops the best
  • Cuts to general housing allowance hit single-parent families hard
  • The rise in interest rates is particularly evident in the inflation experienced by a single wage earner
  • The gradual reduction of earnings-related unemployment benefits has a negative impact on purchasing power.
  • The purchasing power of a retired couple grows the most this year.
