Interest Rate in Finland
Finland - Interest Rate
Economic growth slowed marginally in the third quarter, according to revised GDP data. The slight slowdown came in part from a decrease in government spending, while the external sector continued to drag on the economy, albeit to a lesser extent than in the second quarter. More positively, both private consumption and fixed investment picked up in Q3. Turning to the fourth quarter, available data indicates a further slowing of momentum as economic activity declined month-on-month in October. Moreover, growth in real wages slowed in the same month, which may drag on private consumption. In other news, Sanna Marin, the former transport minister, became Finland’s new prime minister on 10 December, following Antti Rinne’s resignation. Marin will head a coalition of five left-leaning parties and no significant change in economic policy direction is foreseen.Finland - Interest Rate Data
