Ipad Frame - Finland-Q3-GDP-growth-in-line-with-our-expectation

  • Virus transmission remains contained even after all restrictions were lifted, as almost 85% of adults are fully vaccinated.

  • Consumer confidence in October moderated from the multi-year high in September, when all pandemic restrictions were lifted.
