What did we say two years ago already?
In the current year, Finland’s economic growth has accelerated and become export-driven. The positive turnaround is explained on the one hand by the acceleration of economic growth in several important export countries and on the other by sector-specific special factors. PT has raised its spring growth forecasts for this year by 1.7 percentage points and for next year by 0.8 percentage points. We estimate that Finland’s GDP will grow by 3.6 percent in the current year and by 2.5 percent next year. The more modest growth forecast for next year may prove lasting. The most serious threats to it originate from outside Finland. (AI translation)
